I would have done too if that had been explained but it was said that they
were 'annoying' - not the same thing at all.

Well, not in English English :-)

I'm genuinely sorry if I've caused offence ...

Mary, It takes a lot more than that to offend me. I was just pointing
out that this person was being made uncomfortable. Perhaps that would
have been a better way for the OP to express what was happening.

Oh, I thought it was very English, some kind of understatement that is so
often found especially with the Brits. 'Annoying' being the fine way of
telling folks that you get a really bad rash and scratch yourself until the
skin comes off. ;-) It just didn't occur to me that anybody would take out
the labels for fun.

"Better" clothes have the labels in the side seams. I hate labels in
the back of the neck, poking and itching all the time. I'm a big fan of
Gilda Radner's "I base my fashion taste on what doesn't itch." Works
for me.
