I am not buying this- but is this Burberry Sweater ugly as FUCK?

This is a better photo

It's not ugly but it's not for everyone. Hopefully you know if it's for you.

I think it looks nice but my taste is questionable.

It's beautiful

It is nice, but it is not $1003.10 nice.

You’re not getting it, OP. They don’t come in 6xl and that’s an unflattering pattern for a woman as hefty as you. Try Dress Barn or Lane Bryant. They might have a kicky cardigan to wear over your muumuu.

R5- I can get it for 680 at another site... It will never go lower than that. I am tempted!!! You little fucker R6- I am a medium (or a large in Burberry) and a dashing old man of almost 45.

It's an unattractive color, shape and pattern.

For $1000 I would want something to make a statement and people to comment on in a good way - not scrunch their face and say, what is that?

SHIT R8- I have been eyeing Elder Statesman and The Row too... The Row is classic but HELLA BORING.

If you have a mansion, horses, and a private plane to go with it you’ll hear nothing but compliments.

It's alright. It's not worth more than $49.99.

That’s what my mother used to describe as “so ugly it’s nice”.

At first glance you think it’s ugly, but upon closer examination you think, you know, that’s actually kinda nice.

Well, it made sense to my mother.

“La kwa dahling….”

It will look shitty on anyone over 50 and anyone with grey hair.

If you wear it with a nice string of pearls I'm sure it would look lovely on you, dear.

I would never wear this in public, btw- It would just be for me!

R10- No- Nothing. I had a Porsche Cayenne once and traded it in for a Q5 because it made me look far richer than I would ever be.

Id imagine that being what a designer preppy straitjacket would resemble, actually.

^I’d

Tina, darling- I wanted it as my only Christmas gift. Well, the one that I could keep (If I liked it best)

You ungrateful cunt.

Wear it with. denim gauchos and lace-up espadrilles. You'll look great.

R20- No. I don't even know what those are! I wear Visvim boots.

On closer glance you would say, gee that's really poorly designed for a Burberry. The front closure is really shoddy and it looks like a bad imitation at best.

R22 That is kind of the vibe with the new designer. (Burberry is tanking- big time) I dont know..

Were I rich and better built, I’d be all over it. I love it for someone who isn’t me.

Burberry makes a supurb trench.

Burberry fashion business is going down the drain. Nobody is buying.

It’s fucking ugly. It’s expensive. It’s especially expensive for something that’s fugly and is constructed of 22% petroleum product.

It’ll sell huge in China.

R27 this is where your ignorance shows. Luxury brands are tanking in China. They aren't buying. The consumers there are NOT stupid and they know the value of products since they make them. They are not suckers.

R26- I know-- It makes me sad actually.

I could start a thread about Virgil's Off-White being sold off and its soon to be in Marshalls/TJ. MAXX

R28- You are right--- Luxury is tanking in China overall. And luxury needs China...Even LVMH is struggling- I just mentioned these fuckers selling off Off-White (on Virgils birthday no less!) And Hedi left Celine because they would not pay him- AFTER he actually met their goals!!!

R28- Are there brands right now exceeding goals? Like Dior possibly? - I am truly curious and should probably just google.

(I suspect The Row is killing it)

The steady one is Hermes. Most global luxury brands are heading into deep doodoo because they became way overpriced fast fashion companies. Athletic and leisure wear is the future. Adidas and Nike are growing in Asia.

OP if you want an English sweater, buy a traditional knit made in England by a small brand or an artisan.

Hermes.. of course.. I was checking recently to see if they make a toiletry kit- they are all nylon, For nylon, I would buy Prada- at least there is the Re-Nylon shit that they do....

You know who I love? these folks- Tenderstores- UK

and HOLY FUCK--- Their website is closed and says they will soon be coming from PENNSYLVANIA????? WTF???

Is Engineered Garments from the UK? I love them too

I have a botegga toiletry kit that Lehman Bros gave me in the 80s. It's indestructible leather of some sort from back when lux meant lux. Hell all my lux shoes from the 80s are in fine shape. And a couple bags, too.

R33- NICE. You are all killing me tonight, I want a Bottega backpack. And I have been looking at Bottega vintage Dopp kits(Toiletry bags)

OP: Burberry? You an old chav, or some-fink?

Yes and chavs love Burberry

I love being called a CHAV! I am UK obsessed and this Oasis reunion has me fucking bananas.

Here’s the link…

I don't think you should encourage your own FOMO about these degraded former lux brands. Luxury commodities are now a game that should only be played by people with absolute money to burn. Unsolicited advice. Put your money into quality items where the price is related to the quality of the materials and workmanship. This is mostly NOT in global luxury brands in the 2020s. You missed the boat on this.

R28 I guess that I’ll just have to live with the knowledge that I’ve been called out by you on my ignorance of what cashed up Chinese peasants will pay for.

For every one of these items, 99 will already have been siphoned off by the factory manager in the Pearl River Delta and be on sale as knock-offs in Lo Wu Commercial City for 20% of retail.

Having lived there I’m pretty well informed.

R37 Dataloungers of a certain ilk have just discovered “chav”. They have no idea what it means but they love using it.

🤣🤣! OP, it is ugly. Who'd wear that?

OP here. I think Hermes, Bottega, and The Row are really the only fuckers worth anything at this point... (I most prefer Japanese designers- Kapital and Visvim, and. Yasuhiro---anyway- as well as an unknown brand called Nonnative..

May I interest you in Il Bisonte?

I really like this as a toiletry bag- its reasonable, understated, and masculine.

R42- Your response with the nasty emojis has me angry as FUCK and also laughing my ass off!!!

You , my friend, are a little CUNT!

I love that sweater! I am debating doing a pay in 4 installments on Paypal! LOL

Don't do it. The dopamine will evaporate in 15 minutes. Buy a sweater you can afford.

Unattractive

It's for suburban frau who want to advertise they're wearing Burberry.

This is the best thing to come out of Burberry in years:
