Von Dutch t-shirt


In this episode Felicity Kendall wears a powder-blue t-shirt with the Von Dutch logo on it. Am I alone in thinking how humorous and ironic it is that an English show about gardeners would feature the name and work of a true bad-ass rebel? Kenneth Howard, the real Von Dutch, would be laughing or spinning in his grave (if he hadn't been cremated) at the uses to which his nickname is now put by a fashion company.

"Get yourself a Glock and lose that nickel-plated sissy pistol."

There is a Von Dutch store located in London, England. The owner pushes the brand onto celebrities to wear/advertise. Smart move to sell his products. Von Dutch stores may be found around the world. Also, not too unusual for the Rosemary character to wear a Von Dutch (motorcyclist) t-shirt. In a later episode you learn that she used to own a shooter, she even rides one in the episode. Laura comments on how well she can handle it.
