There is one on the corner of the rd I work in. Never anyone in there

Just walked past on way back from coffee shop and they have this toe-curlingly awful window display with some naff thing saying "wear your rugby shirt with your dinner jacket" and such horridnesses.

Errr, no. Everyone will think you are a twat if you do that.

WHO is this aimed at?

This thread appears to be defining and pigeon holing people according to their dress, perhaps we should all wear one uniform for fear of not being in agreement with anothers 'style', would that be best?

What is to boggle at?

Mimi, who lives in a house made of bricks and water, has forgotten that she used to know what a chav was. So I have pointed her in the direction of her previous posts on the topic.
