are there any companies that make decent-looking clothes without stupid little logos on them? please?

I have a whole bunch of polo shirts (including a couple of Lacostes) and I put the collar up on all of them.

But I can get away with this 'cos I'm British, gorgeous and superfly.

Do, Ned! We shall honour the fire and push them all into the Yarra.

Yay! I wanna see the Yarra Valley and all that so bad. What a wunnerful city. :-)

Do you get bonus points & more lovin' if you rock the upturned collar w/ your dad's Members Only jacket?

cozen: h & m got a decent lot in different colours a few months ago, at least. might have been in the winter seasons stuff. he trick is to pick up lots when they appear (i bought 6 in a relatively short period of time), before they change the bloody styles and forget them. v neck cotton jumpers should be a basic item, clothes shop people!

uniqlo also had some a while back but werent very fine. check h&m i think. they might have ditched them for summer, idiots :(

funny, i nearly did a thread on this the other day. i almost got in a fight with a real arrogant public-school, city-working arsehole the other day. he shoved past me on a tube station escalator and nearly sent me flying, so i grabbed hold of his foot and tripped him up. he was wearing a pink ralph lauren rugby sweater with the collar flipped.
it's very much the preserve of privately educated young achievers, often with floppy hair, here and i hate it too.

I'll get on h&m, ta ambrose.

also, tip: united colors of benetton normally do a good range in cotton v. neck jumpers as standard. tho warning they do shrink quite a lot on first wash so probably buy a size above.

so you actually bent down and grabbed his foot? sounds quite impressive.

ive just decided that my personal people-who-wear-the-collars-of-their-polo-shirts-flipped-up equivalent are people-who-use-the-word-'diaspora'-in-everyday-conversation

cor, what if the guy had fallen backwards causing everyone else behind him on the escalator to fall backwards...

Popped-collar-stalker note: I just got back from the San Francisco Art Institute where an awfully handsome young (18) man sauntered into Pete's Café with, yep, collar turned up. Cute as a button, rockin' the collar.
