Three things I can't fathom are as follows: anyone eating anything they can't pronounce, people using words they don't know the meaning of (offenders, stop this! it's more apparent than you think), and wearing names one can not pronounce. Yes, language is indeed important to me. In the current time when most are still believers that labels define style; even if you don't necessarily consider yourself a connoisseur of fashion, it wouldn't harm to familiarize yourself with the correct calling of names that even if not in your closet you've surely seen and will continue to see. You never know who you may find yourself in an exchange with.
Balenciaga : Ba-lin-cee-ah-ga
Bottega Veneta: Bo-tega Ven-e-ta
Bulgari: Bull-gah-ree
Christian Louboutin: Loo-boo-tin
Givenchy: Jhee-von-shee
Hermes: Air-mess
Hervé Léger: Air-vay Lay-jay
Jean Paul Gaultier: Sj-awn Paul Goat-ee-ay
Lanvin: Lon-vin
Marchesa: Mar-kay-sa
Pierre Cardin: Pee-air Car-dain
Proenza Schouler: Pro-enza Skool-er
Yves - Saint - Laurent: Eve-san-Laur-ahnt
And if sounding these out is still leaving you feeling unsure, the Imperial Hotel Management College has blessed the tongue twisted public with videos you can play to no end of audio with the correct pronunciations. Go off in confidence that you can talk that talk now lovelies. Hell, sing them if you please!
