When is something handmade cheap, and when is it chic and dapper?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) July 24th, 2014

If you had a hand sewn bra from Victoria Secret or shirt from Dolche and Gabbana, is that chic and couture? If your no-named aunt sewed you a shirt, even if it were made of silk, is it seen as cheap and bumpkinish? What can you think of that is considered great and good if handmade and things that are looked upon as cheap if made by hand? If you sewed your own bra is that cheap rather than couture?
