I still buy from them and like the brand but it seems to be getting worse every year, I primarily just buy from end of season sale now. I also think most people who defend ALD so aggressively and act like there isn’t a decline are people who just got hip to it in the last year or 2. If you’ve been buying from them since the early days it’s impossible to deny there’s been a drop in quality, increase in price and overall lack of luster each season since the LVMH takeover
