Ethical, Unique and Trendy: Which is the Best Brand in Fashion?
There are hundreds of different clothing brands out there, some popular, some not so much. It can be difficult choosing between the various brands because most people want to look cool, but they do not always know which brands are ‘in’ and which are ‘out’. There are several reasons for this, firstly, it depends who you are hanging around with which brands you prefer – for some people one brand may be cool, while to another, it is too this, that, or the other.
If this should teach you one thing, then it is that: choose a brand that you like for its intrinsic value to you, rather than the simple reason that other people think it is cool. Remember, that if you do opt to buy clothes, just because everybody else is, then you are likely to be paying too much in terms of what the clothes are actually worth. Sometimes, you can have two identical items, one with a logo, one without, and the difference in price can be upwards of £50 – that is ludicrous, and really means that the companies are laughing at you. They say to themselves, ‘these mugs are easy game, we’ll just create cheap clothes, put our logo on it and they’ll buy them; like shooting fish in a barrel’.
Fortunately, there are other clothing companies, such as American Apparel, that are completely up front with their prices in relation to the quality of the clothes. The price they charge is reasonable and never over inflated to suit a hipster’s ego. All of the materials they use are ethically sourced, and their workforce is paid well for their work – none of their clothing is produced in sweatshops, and the same cannot be said of other – well known – clothing brands.
American Apparel has a reputation for stylish, yet casual, designs, and they are increasingly popular amongst students and young people. They are known for their high-quality and affordable clothing, which include trousers, shirts, t-shirts, underwear, jumpers, dresses, and shorts. They tend to be fairly lightweight, and so make the perfect choice for summer wear. They do a fantastic winter range too, for example, they sell a range of thermal sweatshirts.
American Apparel is great for people who want to customise their clothes, because the majority of their clothing comes without designs or logos – they are a blank canvas. This means that you can decorate and make your own statement. If you cannot be bothered, but you still want funky designs then they do a great range of screen printed t-shirts, hoodies and tops. They sell a particularly wide range of clothes, so we are certain that you will find something that you like amongst their collection.
This brand of clothing is highly distinct, and you can add your own individual flare, so they make a great mix and match choice. The majority of their clothing is for casual wear, so if you are looking for something a little smart, then they are not the brand for you. However, if you’re looking for funky, trendy and casual clothing, then they are certainly the choice for you.
