Hi Rogues, wondered if I could exploit your impeccable fashion sense and cachet for a moment to get some advice on my new label, Magdalene Laundry, and website?

My questions are:
a) what would make the under-construction website www.magdalenelaundry.com more appealing?
www.magdalenelaundry.com (please ignore HORRID pics and boutique layout)

b) What determines your purchasing decisions over $500? (Friend's endorsement? Magazine editorial? Celebrity wearer? Sales assistants?)

c) will you please put in a good word for Magdalene Laundry to your fashionable friends?! The website will be fixed soon - PROMISE!!!

Thanks!
xx

A. It needs to be jazzed up and themed to the brand. At the moment it doesn't have very vibrant colours and the text feels like a 'slab', so it's not enticing to read. Get a photo shoot done with the jacket and match it with some very 'now' clothes and accessories, give it a context.

B. Endorsement, or finding it on a shelf and loving the cut. For the former, opinion leaders more so than celebrities.

Thanks dpd - I agree, styling /photo shoot will make a huge difference.
Cheers!

Will do.

Totally agree with Daniel, but the product looks cool :)

Thanks mate... slowly but surely :)

LOVE!!!!!! The jacket is hot, would totally totally love to add one to my wardrobe, and will definitly be putting in good words for you!

would totally love a quote, or know more info! grey with pink or black with blue or pink stiching is sounding totally HOT! hehe

yeah your site doesnt realy give off any vibes as to who you are as a person and what your selling. you can never go wrong with keeping it all simple.

great jacket though! i can easily see that working in something other than lambskin like a nice heavy grey wooly thingy-ma-bob.

Thanks guys! I'm no web designer and am doing my best while I get to my feet... will see what I can do. Nice idea with the wool, too Mukki! x
