English term or phrase: call your very own
Hi Prozers,

I am not completely sure about the meaning of this phrase.

Here you can find more context:

From Kenzo, the world's most famous celebrity designer, comes a line of dresses that you can call your very own.

Thanks so much for your time =)

que puedes permitirte


Explanation:
Literalmente, llamar tuyos, pero se trata de que normalmente la gente normalita no puede permitirse el lujo de comprar marcas de diseño como estos, pero esa línea sí que es alcanzable.

llamar tuya o propia.


Explanation:
Creo que esa fue una de las primeras frases que traduje, por esta canción:
well i never had a place
that I could call my very own
but that's all right my love
'cause you're my home.

when you touch my weary head
and you tell me everything will be all right
You say use my body for your bed
and my love will keep you warm throughout the nigh
