Brands you think of as tacky

[Themammy101]

Lighthearted! Was chatting to some ladies at a group I attend and they were talking about fashion brands that is seen is tacky and trashy, superdry, Tommy Hilfiger, juicy couture, Adanola etc. do you agree with this? FWIW I do wear hilfiger jeans the odd time but seem to live in adanola as I find it nice fitting for my shape and very comfortable and never thought the brands as tacky per se but now I’m a bit paranoid, not that I care too much but nobody wants to appear tacky let’s be honest

Also the Rita Ora collaboration with Primark (I’ve thought a very random choice) is always horrible!

I wouldn't say, tacky, but I think of Gap and Hilfiger as kids labels only. That might be because that's what was popular when I was teens.

Didn't know that thanks,Seems anything Mike Ashley buys turns to shit in terms of quality and service plus how workers are treated.

Anyone remember Paul’s Boutique?

Range Rover, Audi and BMW

Moncler - likely fake but rife on the council estate I live on so whenever I see it, it feels tacky

White Nike socks over the leggings and even worse with sliders - tacky as

Most of the stuff celebrities put their name on. I do like the Stacey Solomon range in ASDA though. Just wish the bedding was 100% cotton.

Why are Levi’s an exception?

Back in reality:

Everyone is warm and dry doing dog walks and teachers are snug on playground duty in their Dry Robes!

Women everywhere are looking and feeling good about themselves in their CT Pillow talk lipstick and enjoying the high quality eyeshadows which glide on effortlessly,

And those that can afford to shop at Burberry are beyond caring whether or not the majority of MN think they are tacky or not...

I take it you haven't seen the green camo ones with a very large, bright pink logos on the back.

Saw one in Dumfries M&S the other day.

Basically anything that has a name across it.
And Disney.

I wouldn’t say one particular brand but anything with really loud, in your face branding is tacky to me. I can’t afford most of these brands mentioned 😂 but if I had the money I’d shop for unbranded, good quality. I don’t like to be a walking advertisement!

Interesting that SuperDry has been called out in the first few posts. I am absolutely not into labels at all, but I’ve got a few T shirts from there as they are reasonable quality and I like the style (semi fitted V neck). They have a very discreet little logo which is hardly visible.

Any brand of track suit bottoms with writing on your bum. (To a lesser extent, any brand of track suit bottoms with or without writing if you're not actually doing something sporty/active, but those ones are the worst.)

Nothing screams 'tacky' quite like the holy trinity of Burberry, Dyson, and Land Rover.

OMG there's a hilarious influencer who takes the mick of the bad English on Japanese clothes. She does with a deadpan face and tone.
She's American so her weakness is that she has occasionally criticised as bad English some things that were written in perfect French...

Oh don't say that my friend @Mumtobabyhavoc I treated myself to a Hilfiger wallet for my birthday last month! It's the most treaty thing I own! 😅

Actually i liked it because it was not too in your face with the logo. DH when I told him went 'ugh- Hilfiger' then conceded it was 'not too bad'. High praise.... i think.

What would you suggest as a non-tacky luxury/executive saloon? I can only really think of Lexus unless you want to go electric and get a Tesla. Jags are a bit of an old fart's brand.

Tacky vacuum cleaners? I've heard it all now!

Why is Tiffany tacky?

PLT, Missguided, Boohoo, Victoria's Secret (Pink, especially),Shein(or Shite as I call it) and Temu.
Oh and anything written in another language or with place names on. I remember a T-Shirt in Next that said Saint-Malo on it. Yeah, those who've been never would buy it and those who've never been would buy it.
Also the trend for 'California' etc T Shirts on men...!
I remember a top in New Look(another tacky shop) that said 'Comme si, Comme ca!' on it.
I can imagine some girl thinking-
"Ooh this is sooo French and sophisticated"
Nope, you look like a twat walking around in a top that translates as 'So-so!'

On someone or for sale
