this forum is deadly to my wallet. First watches, now clothes I never used to buy expensive clothing before, but now .............

made in US doesnt always equal good quality, and vice versa, made in china is not always bad either.

Tho I found out that burberry now MICBF, and fakes are coming out of china too. So I find that buying burberry (or any other branded goods) no use, because the fakes can/may/could be as good as original.

Very very deadly

Yeah it's true but up to u to think

Hahaha...that's the way

Now their stuffs not made in US liao... Guess thats why the poorer quality. But their pima cotton tees way too comfy for me to give it a miss.
I don't buy their accessories.

Armani Exchange also more towards guys rite?

AX got gers and boys stuffs. can go check out their full collection at www.armaniexchange.com

I usually order online as local prices way marked up and sales also not fantastic

I think quite even...

Just bought an AX "Red" watch in support of the "Aids for Africa" project.

But G. Armani suits are really really nice...

[armchaireconomist]

okok..

Then Hugo Boss n Zegna is the way to go ..

Don't really fancy Hugo Boss. Only find their suits nice. Then again... it's all about taste.

Missed out one man's brand that has been around for ages. Alfred Dunhill. It's probably the granddaddy of man's fashion. But I'm in denial... not ready to wear Ah Pek brand.... yet.

Of course ladies has a bigger market... not usually for a lady to have 20 bags, 50 pairs of shoes (to some it's considered as "50 only") and a few hundred pieces of clothing. My CO's wardrobe is easily 4 times mine.

So no surprise to find fashion houses going where the $$ is. I would...

Ya lah... what I meant was brands that are 'exclusively' for guys only.

If you walk into boutiques like Prada... just one small little section for men.

Yeah lor

just thinkin, mayb should organise a shopping trip

Yeah! But wait.....wait for funds first Then all hoot together!

Buy from usa online store cheaper not? I saw Burberry online $80USD.
Today went to boutique, none in my size =( In the end got one for mum instead. 40% off for ladies polo tees quite worth it!

Haha..sales stuff like that 1 la...I got used to it.

Hihi ,

Juz my 2 cents worth. I think Prada if can get in HKG cheaper than SG. Bought the Prada haversack few yrs back in HKG lah, think bout SGD$100 cheaper as compared to SG

Yup

Errr... how come almost no mention of guy brands??

I like Zegna and Pal Zileri. But very unfortunate... no more Zileri boutique in singapore.

I also want to find guy brand...but I think Zegna is the only few brands more orientated to the guys. But wad to do? Ladies market bigger than guys market...bo pian LL lor

[louisoh]

Tink AX quite even.... alot of ladies stuffs also..
