No Brand = No Acceptance?

 So, what's the big deal with brand? It's very lovely, yes, and pretty none the less but it's just better quality clothing. Clothing wears and tears and you just buy again, so why is brand such a big deal? I'm positively curious, does it have to do with bragging rights or just the fact that you're a qualified lolita if you have brand? For me, being young I have plenty of years of growing left so buying expensive clothing only to have it stop fitting later is pointless and a waste of money. Off-brand can get pretty good.

So what does owning brand mean to you, and do you think it is important to have it in your closet? 
 
Personally, I think Lolita is all about being yourself. Which means if you prefer off-brand over brand, there's no reason for someone to bug you about having at least one brand piece in your closet. It's... silly, to me, to waste your time in overly expensive clothing. It just makes you feel good and fluffy that you have something better than someone else. And, as snobby or stuck up, or as bitchy as it sounds, you have to admit it's a pleasant feeling.
