20 Fashion Brands You’ve Been Pronouncing Wrong

With this handy pronunciation guide you'll never make another social faux pas!

There are so many designers out there, both expensive and affordable, that make you wonder how you should pronounce their brand. Frenchify it with silent letters and you might sound pretentious, but if you pronounce every letter you might sound completely ignorant.

There’s really no winning unless you search for people who work for that brand and ask them yourself. And even then, there are cultural pronunciations that differ from the original pronunciation!

So if you’re just dying to talk about your favorite brands like Marchesa (mar-CHE-sa?) and Saucony (SAU-ko-nee?), look no further! Instead of looking the right brand pronunciation up on the sly before you say it out loud, just refer to this handy list! Just make sure you practice pronouncing each brand out loud to yourself before you casually mention your new Hermès scarf of your latest pair of Manolo Blahnik stilettos!
