The Pronunciation Puzzle
Fashion, like Bollywood, has its own set of tongue twisters! The brands we adore often come with tricky names. Getting the pronunciation right is a small detail that shows you're in the know, and we're here to help you master it.
Louis Vuitton
Let's start with a classic. This French brand is pronounced 'Loo-EE Vwee-TON'. Remember, it’s not 'Lewis'. Nail this, and you're already halfway to fashion fluency! Now go on, show it off at your next Diwali get-together!
Gucci & Hermès
Gucci, the Italian icon, is 'GOO-chee', not 'Goo-chee'. For Hermès, think French elegance: 'Air-MEZ'. Knowing these will help you when discussing your shopping adventures, or as we Indians say, shopping 'keeda'!
Levi's & Versace
Levi's, the American denim giant, is 'Lee-Vyes'. Versace, the Italian powerhouse, is 'Ver-SAH-chay', not 'Ver-SAH-see'. Perfect for discussions on the latest trends during a quick chai break with friends.
Nike & the Rest
Nike is 'NIGH-key', not 'NIGHK'. Dior is 'Dee-OR', Ralph Lauren is 'Ralf LAWR-en', and Shein is 'She-in'. With these correct pronunciations, you're ready to step out in style and confidence.
