I asked politely for what what she sees in this collection that is "J Crew", she can politely decline to provide her reasons. I always ask politely for what others feel are the reasons for their opinions, then I might or might not engage in further dialogue. If I feel it is worth answering someone's post, I will, if not, I won't. The purpose of a forum is to engage in discussions, whether or not one agrees or disagrees. I only speak about the collections, or definition of "haute couture", which are topics, I never attack the person. There is no need to get personal "body snatchers", "Mount Olympus" etc., seriously.

Sure you can still think these are J crew pieces despite all the reviews and the posts by others who explain why these fall under the definition of "haute couture", no one is going to change anyone's mind, however, as a topic on fashion knowledge, engagement benefits me and others who are interested to know more, not simply an opinion of someone. Others who disagree that this is RTW or feel that it is unfair to characterize this collection this way, or see other qualities in the collection should not be discouraged to speak up either.
