The counter-case
The case against this reading — not reported by the source.
This is one of 500+ international brands on Myntra, so a 90-style apparel drop is incremental catalog-filling, not a strategic needle-mover. Desigual's bold, maximalist aesthetic is niche in India, where value-conscious buyers and established local ethnic/fusion wear dominate. The 'accessible-luxury' positioning is squeezed from below by fast fashion and from above by aspirational Western brands with stronger recall. Seasonal drops carry inventory and markdown risk if sell-through disappoints, and the 45% Tier II 'interest' figure likely conflates browsing curiosity with actual willingness to pay premium prices.
