No idea, I was just throwing a Kinks reference in there before. Agree on all those labels, Henley's in particular being the worst and I'd also add in SuperDry.

The interesting thing about this thread and the one before it, is seeing how worked up some posters get as soon as anyone mentions clothes on here, trying to get threads locked etc. I'm sure there's more controversial topics that could be discussed.

Anyway, as you were.

People are always judged by what they're wearing. That's why you don't turn up to interviews in just your undies.

You can for Skype interviews, well almost anyway.

So if you have two suits in a shop for sale, both identical in cut and material, one being a Gucci and the other something made by a little Chinese kid in a sweatshop, which one do you buy for an interview?

What gets me is how people are prepared to pay over the odds just because someone has sewn a well known label on the front?

Make it stop. PLEASE!

It's just the usual paraffins though, so no surprise really.

Chances are, they are both made by the same kid. That's not to say the interviewer still won't favour one over the other.

You tend to find people like wearing stuff that the masses aren't. That's why they'll pay a little bit more.



Don't read the thread if you're not interested.

Stop moaning, grow a David Bellamy or a Clement Freud if you prefer and get on Moran's shopping trip to Newcastle

What a radical concept.

The most unsurprising aspect of this thread of threads is that you started it

Sadly, no.
Since hitting 40, I find anything more than 3 days growth, makes the bottom half of my face resemble that of Uncle Albert's from Fools and Horses.

I have just bought some Hollister stuff. Mind you I did pick it up in Southern California. Does that make me a fashion victim?

Not really, that qualifies you as a possible candidate for Jersey Shore, though.

No that would just make you a cringe perp!
