    Top man is way better. Decent stuff. 
    Primark sizings are like a lie.. I'm a bigger size In Primark and I'm 2 sizes smaller else where. It's disgusting. 
    I would recommend avoiding tbh. Cheap sweatshop made stuff.

    Not to the people who make the clothes it isnt. They get paid next to nothing to work 12 hour days to make cheap clothes that are incorrectly sized and fall apart quickly

    Think she's talking about the people who make the clothes in sweatshops @Shaunie ... I think lots of places are the same though sadly i know for a fact JD supports sweat shops and their prices are ridiculous

    I try not to. Sometimes it's not avoidable. I try to go for sustainable fashion..so clothes better for the environment too.
    Charity shops, online independent brands etc
