Published Date: 12 September 2008
THE women of Sheffield were yesterday handed the unenviable title of being the least fashion-conscious in the UK.
A celebrity fashion website has found that women from the city are the worst dressed in the UK, with 53 per cent stating they didn't care about fashion. Dundee was placed fourth.

"Worst dressed"/"they didn't care about fashion".

The website quoted in this report makes the fundamental error of assuming that one is the consequence of the other. Some of the best dressed people I have known couldn't have cared less about fashion - they weren't trend-following mugs.

Spoot, so right! You can buy fashion but not style and some of the most stylish people (men or women) don't give a hoot about what is fashionable!

Now if you said they all looked like ‘Pansy Potter’ I might be worried.

Hi guys,

Just picked up on this when looking for coverage for www.MyCelebrityFashion.co.uk, who I work for. We conducted the survey, SamSpa, and are glad to see that people are taking the results for what they are - a snapshot of the British public's opinion on fashion, and not a personal attack in any way, rather just published results of the study.

Hope they don't offend, as that was never the intention.
