The designs have got that UK mod look but not too ostentatious. The shirts are quite fitted and suited my boy perfectly. It's hard to find the right shirt so I was glad to see a Jack London store in World Square, Sydney. They use good quality materials and make hot suits, sturdy winter jackets and some comfy cardy's for the chillier months. They have great sales on at the moment where you can get 60% off and I will be interested to see their Summer range.

Some of their items are nice and made with suede, cotton, rarely 100% wool, however, unfortunately they use a lot of crappy synthetic fabrics. Their clothing is not environmentally friendly and does not back up the mindset of the cool retro clothes that they try and imitate poorly. Usually after a couple of wears or a single wash their clothing starts to look really cheap and shabby even after a single dry clean bubbles have appeared in a jack London suit I had. Looked good for one minute.

They have a rather a large range of modern suits - no shirt ruffles or maroon velvet here. My son was a groomsman at a wedding recently, he was on a diet and consequently the original size no longer fitted him as the wedding got closer. They left his suit until last minute and when we went to pick it up he had gone down a couple of sizes. They did last minute adjustments on the day he picked it up. The wedding went without a hitch and my son looked his best thanks to Tedesco's. Their services include: Tailoring, Men's and boys cloths suits and men's and boys formal hire.

Sure the prices are high but these are designer brands after all and to be expected. Although I have to admit Incu marks it up quite high. This place fits right into my approach to shopping. I don't shop often at all so I have a small wardrobe, but when I do I tend to buy investment pieces that would last me years. I have bought a few items here (mostly when its on sale) and even the most simple items look different when worn. My favourite designer is Alexander Wang and his casual wear line is amazing. He puts a bit of cool to my usual uniform of jeans and t-shirt! The assistants there are usually design students and are nice enough when approached. I guess the clothes speak for themselves and their demeanor reflective of most designer stores. Truth is, at current market conditions, I would rather shop online because you can get all of these designers on websites such as net-a-porter at much lower prices. But if I can't wait or if its sold out overseas, this is when I head to Incu. Lovely store with beautiful clothing.

Incu is great, expensive but great, I don't often buy anything as I don't want to spend $45 for a singlet or $120 on shorts, but if I had an unlimited budget and less clothes I would shop there. They sell casual designer clothes from leading design houses and their clothes cover a range of styles, but are all excellent quality and extremely stylish. Although I try to keep my credit card in my pocket, I still like to have a browse.

Every suit comes with two pairs of trousers. George, who served me, was a smooth, fast talker, and a consummate salesman, but not overbearing. Go in knowing what you want, don't be afraid to strike a deal, and you'll get quality. They told me outright: it's repeat business they want.

The fabrics they use are sublime and will last for years, giving you the option of incorporating the items with your existing wardrobe. In 2007 they started their swimwear line which are cute, sexy and flattering. The material they use is so upscale and delicate. Please hand wash, just to keep the quality. Supreme clothes. They are definitely on a world wide trajectory.

The selection is large and the staff is helpful. I popped in the other day as I was killing time and had a nice little chat with the girl behind the counter as I was trying on rings. They have a lot of those big ones that go on multiple fingers at once. Roses, guns, skulls... and the like. The clothing certainly caters to a certain "type." Punk, emo, goth, or rockabilly peeps will have a field day in here. But not exclusively. I enjoy the accessories immensely and I don't really fall into any of those categories. One doesn't need to be totally punk rock to rock a polka dotted scarf or a pair of studded earrings. If you're looking for a swing dress, they have the same style over and over again in different colors and prints. Most are A-line and fit for sitting on an old Thunderbird, wearing bright red lipstick and drinking a malted milkshake. The dresses are all around $80, which feels steep for the quality, so I usually steer myself away.

I called into the Bondi Junction store to have a look see. The problem is although they often have some clothes, which I like, for the level of quality they offer their clothes are way overpriced. I look after my clothes and if I buy something I like then I want it to last. Whenever I go to Dangerfield I think to myself why bother as I am only setting myself up for disappointment. Many of the clothes they sell, seem to be virtually disposable and if they were really cheap I would be okay with this, but that is not the case. What they do have going for them is accessories, which are here, there and everywhere throughout the shop, and some of them are really cool and more enticing than the clothes, So I would be more inclined to shop there for something to accompany my outfit rather than the outfit itself.
