Japanese and Korean women still loves luxury

We always knew that Japanese women had a taste for luxury brands, but I am not sure if any of us knew the extent of it.

An article on www.leads-engine.com sheds some light on this: "Japanese consumers, like others in Asia, carry on their obsessive love for luxury brands."

I’d be curious to see updated numbers to see if this women kept buying luxury brands throughout the recent recession. I am a little skeptical. My expectation is that fake designer bags from China would have seen a definite upsurge. All the same, these numbers are surprising.
