The Red Carpet Highlights of... The 77th Annual Cannes Film Festival 2024!
Quality First...
why don't we have a thread about the opposite?
brands who don't disappoint...
brands who provide value by focusing on quality and craftmanship~~!!!!
^ Agree about Brunello Cucinelli, though I haven't tried the leather goods ... they just don't appeal to me. I too had a button fall off silk trousers. Luckily they came with an extra button--I needed it before I even wore them for the first time. I had the pleats stitched down as well. I also have a skirt ... I like it, but the hem of the lining came undone quite quickly, etc. Just took it to be repaired yesterday. I'm beginning to think I should stick to the knitwear and scarves. One thing I really like about the line ... I have sensitive skin and both the wool and cashmere are the most comfortable I've ever had.
Bottega Veneta's quality is good. Sometimes the fit of the shoes could be improved, the ballerinas could use thicker soles, etc. but I can't think of any quality issues I've had.
Wrt Hermes, do you wear the clothes too, or just accessories?
^ I feel exactly the same way.
too bad we seem to be the minority these days
dunno about that...
tide is turning...
have you seen the news in the h&m thread?
they are tanking!
people are waking up!!

^ People having the attention span of gnats now doesn't help ...
Just wanted to note that I bought some Celine pants this weekend, my thinking being 'now or never,' and I'm really impressed with the quality so far. They're a lovely wool gabardine (which is hard to find, but wears like iron in my experience), the fit is good, the construction is impressive. There was a lovely dress that I'm still thinking about ... with impressive construction of its own.
