The Tongue Twisting Glamours.... Part 1


Have you heard people pronounce some of these brand names Louis Vuitton? Moschino? Common and expensive as these brands are, their names have been subjected to oral massacres and remixes that it leaves one wondering  what the correct pronunciation is. 
Most of us rock these designers brand from hair to toe, ranging from caps, to glasses, watches, shirts, dresses, shirts, pants and other accessories.  We are extremely good at pairing them and matching them, we even get to steal all the attention in the crowd when we wear them. And when complemented and asked for the name we literary bite our tongues in an attempt to pronounce it,  or we use the abbreviation or just smile and shy away from the question.
It is just not enough to rock a brand  or wear the most expensive designer accessories and look good. More finesse is added to your style if you can pronounce the brand well like a native of the designer. No matter how expensive you buy the accessories, once you can not pronounce it well, it cheapens your look. We have taken our time to compile a list of the designers and their pronunciations... Lets see how many you knew  how to pronounce well before now
