There are producers whose style I simply dislike. E.g., if we talk about shoes, that'd be Vass and Cleverly. Just so ugly! Generally, I also dislike pinstripe suits. (that has to do with my cultural upbringing I mentally connect them to comic book villains, 20s&30s gangsters and 'classical' American prison wear)

On the other hand there are brands that I happen to like but whose dislike I'd somehow understand, e.g. Gucci.

Sorry matey but this is a Groundhog Day topic that as been covered extensively in the past.

I'm surprised a veteran of your vintage hasn't seen one of several similarly themed threads floating around / resurfacing on here.

Ok,. I haven't been around too often, maybe. Could you point me to one of them cause it''d be fun I thought to see other's dislikes of established things and well-made brands esp for purely aesthetic reasons!

LV only has nice accesories(women bags,wallets,etc). Ties and shoes(loafers specifically) are hit or miss but very few are worth purchasing. I dislike Prada.Some of thier items are hideous,expecially their shoes

I dislike D&G. Their designs are often vulgar.

Anything which uses the designers logo as an essential feature of the design. Louis Vuitton being the prime offender.
