Please just talk to her like an adult and explain yourself.

Look. I realize that the fad for you younguns is the Tommy Hilfiger stuff and Abercrombie, etc. Just take it. What do you care if you're only hanging around the house? It certainally is decent quality to wear kicking around the house or something like that.
It would be unbelieveably rude and unfeeling if you made your real feelings known. Of course you wouldn't do that I suspect.
Now perhaps this is all she can afford. In any case, why don't you treat her to lunch sometime and take her to the local mall. Wander into the A+F store and show her the clothing and tell her "What do you think?" "How's it look on me?" Be aware that if she isn't loaded you may not get this type of clothing every time but hey...you've made the effort to show her your favorite stuff without being rude or straightforward.
The term for that my dear (in case you didn't know) is being subtle. Subtle hints are picked up by adults. You'll see.

Bring it up in conversation that you really like a particular store / clothing line / brand but say that you know it is more expensive. Tell her you are saving for a particular item and she might be able to put some money towards it? You do have to be careful about hurting her feelings because she is trying to do her best by you. If you can't bring it up with her then maybe just wear the clothes she has bought you when you go and visit her!

There's nothing wrong with Walmart stuff. Your aunt is making the best choices she knows how to, money wise.
You should talk to your aunt, let her know how you feel, because if you're refusing to wear the clothing, then she shouldn't be wasting her money that she may not really have.
A lot of people live low income and never get to have new clothing. Be glad for what you have, not what you don't have.

You can never waist money at Walmart. Their stuff is cheap, and maybe you could tell her that "She shouldn't go to all the trouble to get you something". Or say that it doesn't fit as well as abercrombie, which by the way TOTALLY SUCKS!!!!!

Scope out Hollister, and portray their style, with a bit less expensive clothes. You can make an outfit look like it came from Hollister, when it really came from Wal-Mart.

Grin and bare it, hon. I have a mother in law that buys from second hand stores. I don't really have a problem with that, it's the clothes she picks out. If I was back in the 80's again it would be fine, but...stirup pants just don't cut it anymore. I say thanks and just put it aside.

Ask her if they carry (whatever label) at Walmart, then maybe she'll get the hint.

Then don't hurt her feelings. Donate the clothes to charity.

Tell her you'd rather have other things from Walmart such as cd's, accessories, etc.
