    I've heard that for brands like Calvin Klein and Armani, Armani himself doesn't do the designing. He gets people to do it and he endorses the design with signatures.

        Nah, that must be evil rumours.. No need to do such a drastic thing as not buying any more Armani underwear! Relax man, boysdontcryy is only trying to make you freak out.. Giorgio still sews everything by hand at his mothers kitchen table in Toscana. Bless him.

          Even though he no longer personally designs the more expensive lines with his name, I know FOR A FACT that each and every piece created under Ralph Lauren Rugby is scrutinized and lovingly constructed by Mr. Lauren himself still.

          That's why that's the only RL line I still buy. Purple label, black label... who cares. Don't be a fool, only buy Rugby.

            It's odd, but the rugby stuff (not the overly styled & embroidered stuff) is okay. They even had wool herringbone trousers made in italy (a few season back).

                Alexandre Plokhov - from Cloak, now designs for Versace. You can see it right away in some of the Versace suits from this (last?) season.

                        Did you read any posts in this thread? This is about which manufacturers are making which lines.

                        For instance:

                        ShitholePrime factory in Chengdu province makes prada sport is relevant. Bob designs Pants by Joe is not.

                          Ahh you're right, I skimmed over the title while looking for something else and thought I'd add something...

                          Well, how about - Sylvano Lattanzi was making shoes for Jil Sander a few years back. Not sure if they are anymore.

                          Or should I just give up and go back to reading the boards quietly? :)

                              Haha yeah they still do the special orders, regular one used to be by Church but now, who knows.

                              ps: We weren't the right audience because pretty much anyone posting here would know about Cloak and where Plokhov works now.
