I'm no "spring chicken" - so I would have a ball rocking out in a tailor-fit mix of Chanel and Vivienne Westwood, and a closet full of Jimmy Choo shoes. "Age has it's privileges"!

"Pretend" money? I guess you mean Monopoly. I'm not sure about the brand, I actually thought there was only one. I think it might be Milton-Bradley or something.

Many of the nicest pieces that I like are from Gucci, Hermes, Boss, Max Mara, Saint Laurent, Balmain, Armani, and Burberry.

"...if you were a zillionaire, what brands would fill your closet." (?)

second, most of my clothes would be tailor-made.
third, i do adore LL Bean boots. yeah, i know.

My staples would absolutely come from Akris: https://us.akris.com/collections/akris-architectural

Not a staple, but this skirt is awesome: https://us.akris.com/products/pencil...appa-leather-1

And I’d definitely get shoes from here:
https://www.fredasalvador.com/
And here:
https://shop.alumnae.nyc/

And I still need to think about the non staples.
I prefer less "fashion walk" and more "normal". Not into super fashiony pointy shoes either.

If money were no object, I would fly back to Athens and go shopping at Attica. I don't think I have ever seen so many different pieces of clothing that I absolutely adored, in one place.

I would love to find a good tailor and get some custom made pieces, silk and wool, not polyester. Maybe a cashmere coat from Max Mara and a couple of suits from Hugo Boss. Italian shoes are probably not an option since most of them do not come in size 12.

Klim, maybe some Leatt.

If this were 15-20 years ago I'd say Troy Lee (back when that stuff was considered "expensive").
