The quality of Benetton?

When in Rome 2 weeks ago, I bought a linen shirt from Benetton and I was wondering how Benetton's quality has been as of late. The shirt fit me perfectly and unlike most of their items it was both machine wash and machine dry...thus facilitating my typical laundry process. Has their quality gone downhill like Zara?

On a recent trip to the Mall of America stopped @ Benetton: quality is alright for what it is @ 50% -70% off. The sizing is definitely "unique", i.e. pretty f--d up...jeans especially

It seems at least once every month or so they have a sale for 50-70% off everything in the store... Which is about what they should charge for most of the stuff.

Maybe that's their business model.

you cant go wrong with it given that price.
