The cheaper the item, the bigger the brand.

Store brand tshirts from places like C&A are often entirely plain, meanwhile expensive brands like Gucci are all about plastering their logo everywhere. I'd be surprised if Gucci shirts actually had lower production costs than C&A shirts.

There’s a difference between consumer luxury goods and actual luxury goods which are typically unbranded and bespoke.

My rule of thumb is, if I've heard of it (outside of my niches), it's not actually a high end brand

Sure, but the comic is about your "consumer luxury goods".
