Brand pronunciation lesson.

We are constantly thinking about, loving, admiring and  about all the famous designers in the fashion and beauty industry.  We write about their stunning clothes, the dazzling jewels, the mile high heels, the fabulous handbags and everything in between.
  
With all these top designers being written about, have you ever given thought as to how to properly pronounce designer names?  Sure some of them just roll off the tongue but you have to admit, a few of those names don’t sound at all like how they’re spelled. ;)  I thought it would be helpful to make a list of some of the more well known and oft confused designer names and how to pronounce them, so here it goes!
