What is this from Benetton?

[PriamFarrl]

Firstly, I was amazed that they are still going, but……what is this they are advertising?

Its cute

I like the cardi!

Well the cardi's nice.
Not sure about the rest 🤣

I'd wear them as knickers but definitely not out around town 😂

Granny pants!

But when would you wear it?

I agree that the cardigan is nice. My legs look like a pound of cottage cheese in a string bag so I’ll give the knickers a miss.

She'll be catching a chill for sure 🤧😂

Well I don’t know. Those kickers will keep her kidneys warm.

my late DM always used to say “keep your kidneys covered”

I love Benneton. There knitwear and accessories ( hats, scarves) are such good quality for the price; colours so strong and vivid. There were numerous items waI nted to buy.

I visited a European city recently and with the exchange rate the clothing in Benneton ( and elsewhere of course) was even better value.

Blimey lots like that

I thought culottes were like a divided skirt ,not knitted knickers in 1950s swim wear style.

Aah ,every day's a school day

Contemporary French under-pants[edit]The term "culottes" in French is now used to describe women's panties, an article of clothing that has little or no relation to the historic men's culotte breeches, except that in French, calling something "culottes" is like calling them "bottoms". The historical French term "sans-culottes" which was once the rejection of aristocrats' breeches, is now used colloquially to mean the same as an English colloquialism "going commando" or not wearing under-pants.[10]
