What "Needs" do you think Haute Couture satisfies?

The "need" Haute Couture satisfies, is the need to spend 1,000's of dollars on a clothing item for the same thing a plain old Gildan shirt will do for you.

Some of these needs are, Self-Actualization ,Esteem, Love and Acceptance, Safety and Security, Physical Needs.

Haute couture meets the need of those wealthy and demanding something unique and different from the average Joe, but all of these needs are satisfied by wearing any clothes so there really is no "need" for Haute Couture, if you're rich or poor, it's more of a hobby then a need.
