I entered This Fashion( Dhoby Ghuat) yesterday, just to buy a dress which i set my eyes on last week. It was a lively Saturday Night last week and while waiting for Mr late, i walked into This Fashion(Somerset).
For starters, i don't really patronise This fashion only when i need last min party dresses. When i made my way up to the second level to look for my catch, i realized that the designs of numerous outfits there seemed very familiar. I had seen the exact designs in Bysi, Topshop, Myphosis, FNT, even Fox tees were everywhere, costing as cheap as 5 bucks.
I was greatly amused, and smiled to my self. Its definitely cheaper over here, so i don't really mind the knockoff dresses(only some dresses). I realized that their market ting strategies are actually getting them somewhere, but the blaring Chinese music is a MUST-GO. Moreover, the only This fashion outlets which i can safely trust( for their selected range of dresses and sometime blouses ONLY) are the ones in town, to be more specific, i only go to the one in Dhoby Ghaut.
I remember stepping into other outlets and the designs were a total turn off, not forgetting their blaring music to top it all. the designs reminded me of Chinese new year, which they seem to be celebrating all year round, typical of chings' 'acquired' taste.
Anyway, i am satisfied with the dress i bought and am happy with the price, ha ha.
p.s. its a silky white tube dress with black designs on it, with black laces to tie a bow at the back.
