Default Designer Labels

Do you prefer designer labels or would you wear things no matter the price/label..?


I hate labels personally.

I like to have some labelled clothing, but really Id wear anything as long as it looks decent. Would never spend loads on one item of clothing though. Get the expensive labelled stuff in sales

This was inspired by a discussion I had in MSN last night actually. I can't afford to buy designer labels at the moment, but that wasn't always the case... There was a time I could afford them, but still didn't buy them. I think they're a total rip-off. I know a lot of people like them, but they're not for me.

I get most of my clobber from Primark. I do have a pair of Vans trainers though. I do like the look of Roxy clobber, the surfer type clobber but it is expensive but might treat myself in the sales.

I hate it. I like clothes you don't see on every other person.

If you're not enough without a label, you'll never be enough with one.

Nice to see a bit of variety in this poll. I have to be honest, I expected a lot of members to be pro-designer, and not wear anything else.

I'm a huge fan of Calvin Klein, underwear's, t-shirts, jeans, classy pants... Other than that I like Eleven, Lacoste and Guess. H&M is amazing too, for real.

The only brand i really like is fred perry just the nice simple tops witht the logo i have about 6 and i think cheaper shops are just as good as designer shops these days.

I have never heard of Petroleum?

No I am not. Lol. Although I am ashamed to say I once spent Ł280 on a pair of Kenneth Cole shoes. But in my defence I had a Selfridges gift voucher.

You are Barry. We've had this discussion over and over again. You are a total clothes snob. You spend a fortune on clothes.

I don't mean you look down on people who don't wear designer labels, but I mean you hate to wear non-designer.

Both. If I buy designer it's always Dr. Martens or Fred Perry.

Couldn't care less about labels to be honest with you and it sometimes makes me laugh seeing how obsessed some people get about them, particularly when I consider the sweathshops that a great deal of companies use to manufacture their goods.

I'm not getting into the ethical dilemma of it all here, or trying to compare one company from the other - I'm just suggesting that it's very silly to get so absorbed in labels when you consider what's really involved in the manufacturing of their goods, that's all.
