Britain Voted Worst Dressed Country In Europe

Email Twitter Facebook Digg

Despite having a reputation for being buttoned-up, old-school, and relatively clean-cut, England has been voted the worst dressed nation in Europe.

That’s a pretty derisive honor, especially considering that some of fashion’s greatest – McQueen, Burberry’s Christopher Bailey, Stella McCartney, Celine’s Phoebe Philo, to name a few — hail from England. Nevertheless, Ciao, a price comparison and consumer review website in the UK, conducted a study that showed 44% of those polled believed England to be the worst dressed country, followed by Germany.

“Britain is recognised as one of the hardest working nations in Europe” a spokesperson from Ciao told The Daily Mail, “we have longer working weeks and we spend more time in the office than almost any of our European cousins…as a result we have next to no time to go shopping; we are just diving into the nearest store to grab the first thing that takes our eye.”

Perhaps “model” Katie Price and musician turned designer Amy Winhouse are to blame…
