Your Comprehensive Guide To Pronouncing Designer Names

If fashion wasn’t already one of the most intricate areas of art (a tall, but deserved, order), it’s been further complicated throughout history by its phonetics. Design words – from ombré to décolletage, haute to ruching – and the emergence of new, exotic designer names – have been mangled by even Vogue’s most faithful follower.

In the same way clothing colours our life, we bask in the self-indulgent glory of how our favourite filters make us sparkle like a Cullen in the sun. Call Instagram filters the façade of the new millennium – your wardrobe 2.0. Which leads to the more pressing question, “If you were a filter, which designer would you be paired with?” Because if filters are the new clothing, you’ll want to read on to find out who your photos are wearing.
