Chanel and Dior follow closely, while Burberry also has a significant share of admirers. Brands such as Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, and Armani are liked by roughly a third of respondents. However, brands like Celine and Chloé still have room to grow in terms of popularity.

Brand ownership

High fashion, high ownership?

With a 24 percent ownership share among consumers who are familiar with the brand, Burberry leads in the luxury fashion market. Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Dior follow closely behind, while brands like Armani, Balenciaga, and Dolce & Gabbana hover around the 15 percent mark. However, luxury fashion brands such as Hermès, Valentino, and Vivienne Westwood have a lower ownership rate, below the 10 percent. The data suggests that while there's a relatively even spread of ownership across most luxury fashion brands, there is still a noticeable gap between the top and bottom performers in relation to the respective brands' awareness.
