I'm curious about your term "sin: here - and while I know you are just throwing some hyperbole around, even before this I get the impression that your reaction to this line of clothes is more than they are ugly or expensive, but rather they are somehow immorale - that to purchase or wear them is simply "wrong" and that a "good/just/smart/sensible" person would never do that. In a sense that "Fashion" may well be a sin to you, in that it means conformity, foolishness, or some subjegation to an ill-thinking elite.

I don't want to put words in your mouth, but that's an impression I get.
