Would you pay extra for a designer label?

The other day I had to get new glasses. The lenses are free under the insurance but I had to get new frames. I picked out a pair and was told they were styled on the Armani range and were 80euro. I was horrified at the price but then learned if i wanted the real Armani ones they would cost 600euro. She then assured me that plenty of people were paying for the real thing. Would you????

No certainly not, never have. I always manage to get lovely clothes etc., without having to pay for a label. Some of the label things look rubbish anyway.

My sister-in-law works in a shop selling designer clothes. They guarentee that if you buy something there you will never meet someone one at a function wearing the same thing. Her best sale to one person was 15,000euro for a wardrobe of clothes to go on a caribean holiday. I delivered them by Taxi a 50mile round trip!!!!

Even if I had the money I dont think I could. What does a label mean

As long as you look good it doesnt matter if the garment cost 10 euros or 1,000.

Asda price all the way

yes but if you go to a wedding or something like that you can guarantee someone else will have the same asda dress on and that would be a nightmare for me

Living in Tenerife, if you wear designer stuff people assume that it is fake anyway. Usually you cannot tell the difference.
