Well it's probably because their not average, working class or 21 anymore. Would be funny to see them still on stage in Marks n Sparks gear though ;D.

and they all seem to absolutely love shopping. you always see shots of liam coming out of hugo boss, wearing burberry, or noel all the way in sydney...and at an armani store. i bet liam looks back and shudders and what he used to wear. i think they suit the jeans and nifty blazer thing. i'll give that to both liam and noel - they both have become better looking as they have become older. but yeah it has come at the cost of relinquishing that working class image. but it is a truer reflection of who they are as people now, and it would be worse if they were faking it.
