Who is your favourite fashion desinger?
 

A thread especially for Nefeli.


I'm a fan of Paul Smith. Elegant and yet understated.

my favorite fashion singer is milla jovovich





not much of a singer but still fashionable, yes?

Yeah, that helps me too. I'm okay with a small logo, but I don't want to be a human advertising board.

I used to buy quite a lot of stuff at Gap when they were just doing simple basics, but went off them when they started plastering their name all over all the clothes.

I always wonder how the likes of Calvin Klein must feel about the fact that their once-exclusive label is now worn by every Tom, Dick and Harry whilst being ignored by their original target audience. I guess that their bank balances are swelling nicely, so they probably have no problem at all with it.

mega-rich?

ps my favorite fashion designer is FEMA

Timberland apparantly had similar issues when Rap stars started to buy their boots, alienating their traditional market.

Burberry had similar problems with with all the chavs wearing cheap market stall imitations, as well as Danielle Westbrook doing the 'baby and mum head to toe'. The head designer (can't remember his name) said that he had no problems with it, it's just that the Primrose Hill fashion mafia started thinking that it's not a cool label like it used to be.

i like Marc Jacobs, John Galliano and Christian Lacroix

but i can't really find any particular designer for men that i like out side of the standard mold

i am a sucker for the Williamsburg/American Apparel couture

That makes me wonder... Is Lonsdale being heavily associated with extreme right-wing youth in the UK or elsewhere in Europe as well or is that phenomenon just limited to holland/belgium/germany? Because you hardly see anyone else wearing that anymore since they've adopted it as their fashion. I know that at least one dutch school (and maybe more) even decided to ban their students from wearing Lonsdale clothes in classes. Also the media used to speak frequently about "Lonsdale-youth", much to the dismay of the company.


I don't have a favourite fashion designer but I like to spend as little on clothes as possible if I can buy records/books/etc from the same money.

myself.

nazis here used to wear a lot of Lonsdale in the past but in the recent times I've noticed a swich - they're more into Thor Steinar clothing now.

Check this (only in German thouh):

I think were supposed to say Marc Jacobs here because
the band stays at his place whenever they are in Paris.

My favorite designers (like I would know haha) are probably Ralph Lauren, Donna Karan, and Calvin Klein, but hey, I just buy off-the-rack what doesn't look horrible.

yeh me to:D

I see nipple! She's not much of an actrice though

me three.

as a borderline sociopath, the concept of fashion eludes me.

I'm constantly told "you don't match" and constantly respond "I don't care". this alone puts me at a disadvantage on the topic, so I'll just borrow from !@#$%!'s playbook and say NASA.









NASA > FEMA

I mean, come on.....name another designer who allows you the freedom to void yourself where you stand.

Im proud to wallow in my own ignorance on this one. I buy whatever I think looks good (usually black jumpers and jeans). There are few things I loathe more than Fashion. Much rather spend my money on beer, books and rock 'n roll.

not really a designer but I like the Obey brand.
I do like fuct clothing as well.

Bryan Ferry lost an advertising contract with Marks and Spencer for saying that kind of thing, you know.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6653447.stm

The way people treated Bryan Ferry over those remarks about nazi imagery being beautiful just goes to show there is something fundamentally wrong with the way people think in this society. Some elements of Nazi archtecture are absolutely beautiful. Riefenstahl's films also have a lot of interesting ideas. Does this mean i'm a Nazi, a fasist? I'm about as much of a card carrying liberal as you will find. I really wish the british public and media could get there heads out their arses sometimes.

You can't just write off periods of History and Art because you dont agree with its message. And I agree those horrible Nazis were snappy dressers.

no really, i sew.

marc jacobs, stella mccartney, comme de garcons

the lonsdale thing played a couple of years ago, so maybe they've indeed moved to something else now here too... especially since lonsdale started advertising with anti-racism campaigns and sponsoring gay parades etc... that might have gotten rid of many of the real skinheads and "followers" but i don't think it will have brought back many of their original target group as such associations usually remain for a long time.

heven't heard of thor steinar before, but i'll keep an eye open for it. i never see any neo-nazis on the street though. at least not anyone who's openly wear fascist/nazi symbols on their sleeves, but you can't read people's minds of course... the original nazis had a fashion sense, it can't be denied.

I can't even think of one single designer. I hate all that shit. Although the fashion department is across from my room on campus and some of them girls are most definitely fuckable beyond all means. But I don't think this is what you mean.

that John Paul whatshisface.. Gautier

sarramkrop - who are those retarded emo cocks pretending to be Alex and ver Droogs?

Creamo darling, creamo.

sometimes i wish i had more fashion sense for what to buy and/or wear, but the problem is that i just can't be bothered to put much effort into it.

I agree, I would have been a nazi too, if they would have given me one of their snazzy frocks to wear.

I like Sophia Kokosalaki.

phasion kan tacke it up tha buttttttt

I'm a yuppie bastard, but I look wonderful so I don't care.

whoever makes these...

Sometimes I like what Luella Bartley does, and I used to like Romeo Gigli too. Jean Paul Gaulltier used to make really cool stuff that stood the test of time, and Ghost are cool fashion label too.

don cherry..........lord of the fashion world
