Brand popularity
The history of the now popular brand dates back to 1981, when a young designer began to develop exclusive outfits. The idea of creating a line of accessories came much later, when they managed to achieve significant heights in the fashion industry.
Having received the position of the chief designer of the French fashion house Celine and in a short time became the Art Director of the company, in 2001 the fashion designer decided to expand the range of products and developed the first collection of accessories.
In 2003, he left the corporation to concentrate on promoting his own brand.
Michael Kors is guided by several aspects for which his creations are loved and chosen from hundreds of similar ones:

- price - it is an order of magnitude higher than goods with similar characteristics;
- smart watches do not have a built-in NFC function, which means that with the help of modern devices there is no opportunity to make contactless payments;

Materials (edit)
On the technical side, Michael Kors is not American at all, the mechanisms are made in Japan. This is quite justified, because the Land of the Rising Sun is recognized as a leader in this direction. Bronze is ordered in Switzerland. The high price of the material is due to the highest quality.
For example, a turquoise screen with a gold frame looks unbeatable. Attractive shades are obtained by alloy spraying. Gold 585 with a pinkish undertone and 750 with a yellowish tint are used. The vacuum spray method guarantees a reliable adhesion to the substrate.
The base is also made from 316L stainless steel. It is distinguished by high mechanical strength and hypoallergenicity. Some samples are sold without additional coverage. Such samples are distinguished by their characteristic gloss, which is achieved by polishing.
Although precious metal products look luxurious, Michael Kors has different views on this matter. While wearing gold, scratches are formed, which can be removed only in jewelry workshops. The creator prefers to work with ceramics.
Material pluses:
- ceramics are lightweight, not afraid of scratches;
- a bracelet made from this composition lightens the product and balances the metal case;
- the finished product turns out to be practically weightless.
The developer has practically no preconceptions about materials. There are samples with leather, plastic, silicone. Thanks to innovative technologies, they look great, are lightweight and durable.
According to the developer, his creations are not for those who strive to show off. They appeal to people who prefer practicality and grace. With all the features, they look solid and elegant.
