Would you buy clothing of Dragon Ball by Gucci?

Post by dbboxkaifan » Sat Mar 08, 2014 12:26 pm

And for that matter perfumes by Tom Ford, Chanel or Ralph Lauren?

The scent of perfumes that are made by Tom Ford have a really strong nice smell which I happen to like (too expensive though) but since we don't know what the scent of the characters in Dragon Ball have it'd just be a random choice of them to make up for.

In the department of clothing as much as I love the brand Gucci I'd never spend absurd amounts of money on their products even if they made a Dragon Ball t-shirt/etc unless it was a Limited Edition with gold around it (Super Saiyan hair). :P

No I don't do drugs but there are people who're willing to spend hundreds if not thousands of pounds/dollars on these expensive brands.

Due to how ridiculous this seems, I'm inclined to just say no.

I'm one of those people who see no point in buying clothes over 50 bucks. It seems like a waste of cash to me.

I wouldn't buy it.It would be too much expensive and I don't have that much money to spend it on that.

If the clothes didn't look too gaudy, I would think about it. Those Dragon Ball New Era hats from a while back looked cool, I bought the Tenshinhan one.

Would I buy Dragonball branded clothing if it was manufactured by Gucci?

Well, if I liked it - and it wasn't incredibly expensive - then yes. I don't buy clothes dependent on their name, but purely if I like them and can afford them or not. I own some Gucci items, not because they're Gucci - but because I liked them. I own some Versace leather boots that I didn't even realise were Versace untill weeks afterwards - I liked them in a designer outlet store and bought them purely on aesthetic value.

Tact? On the internet? HOHO.

No, I wouldn't. Although I think those designers who were creating Jojo's Bizarre Adventure formalwear and whatnot a while back did a pretty rockin' job. So, maybe perhaps. But probably not; I'm not a rich hipster who buys the latest designer clothes. I'd just go "oh, cool," and be on my way.

Like everyone else has said, it'd just depend on the price. Heck, I hate how much normal clothes often cost, so I definitely wouldn't be spending a whole lot just to have 'fancy' Dragon Ball clothes.

I wear my love for DB in my heart.

No, seriously. The doctors say it's a real problem.

He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

No. A purse, on the other hand...


The problem is soending so much money on something I could wear so little. Some designer clothes in the business world are a weapon. Not only do you look fierce, but if you can afford it you must be good at your job. You must be a winner!

In DBZ clothes I don't think clients or peers would say that I look fierce or savvy, regardless of designer brands.

No, I wouldn't have interest. When I see anyone that crazy with their fandom, like rope-playing, it creeps me out. I haven't liked wearing pictures of characters or licensed clothes since pre-school. I wouldn't mind getting a Capsule Corp shirt or something that's not obviously Dragon Ball, so if it fan knew, it might bring about a head nod or something, and to everyone else, it looks like a normal t-shirt.

I think anyone would be creeped out by rope-play. That kind of thing should be kept private for crying out loud.

... :P (Had to poke fun at the slight phrasing error, I have nothing against what you actually meant, 'roleplay', myself though.)
