Really? I don’t care how ‘fit’ a girl is I don’t want to see the outline of her crack when I’m walking down the street, it’s so tacky.

Agree. These leggings which show off someone’s entire arse with nothing left to the imagination are just gross. I’d be mortified wearing them even if I had a great arse

Aria999 · 07/07/2024 18:08

Elbow length puff sleeves.

Wow, some strong options here on other people's clothes, faces & bodies. Why don't you all post pictures of yourselves so we can all give our options & judgements.

Don’t agree with this comment. There is nothing wrong with having a discussion about fashion trends. You A few people have mentioned skinny jeans (which I often wear). Not offended by it. people are entitled to their opinion

I will literally thinking the exact same thing! What's it to do with anyone else what you look like?

Not really, I agree it's completely weird and odd

i agree

katie20202 · 07/07/2024 18:19

If someone is happy with their appearance and clothing what is it to do with anyone else!

Just because you wouldn't wear certain things then why can't anyone else without being critiqued?

Wouldn't the world be a boring place if we all dressed and looked the same

exactly. It's a discussion.

Is this just a variation of “That’s not music! Now in MY day…”

Crocheted anything. Crochet is for car seat covers, cushion covers, bedspreads, sofa throws - if you absolutely must have crochet. Crochet clothing should NOT be a thing. It just makes you look like you really love your nan.

Everything else, meh, I can put up with it. But NOT CROCHET.

YABVU. Crochet is gorgeous.

AlpineMuesli · 07/07/2024 18:24

And I love wearing comfy socks with sandals. 😂

Those leggings/body suits that make people look naked

Aconite20 · 07/07/2024 18:35

Those stupid huge eyelashes that look like a spider has died on your face; pouty lips; orange complexion; sausage skin stuffed body suits on people who really should know better; and halter tops and shorts shorter than school knickers in the summer.

Oh, and for women over 40 the chin length Playmobil blonde bob, whatever their natural hair colour. And jumpers about four sizes too baggy.

Maybe it's just the bit of the north west where we currently live of course but I'll be glad when all these fads finally pass.

Seems like a thread dedicated to slagging people off!

ThursdaysMonkey · 07/07/2024 18:37

The lips.
They're so depressing.

I agree. Not liking particular clothes or looks is one thing, but actively insulting those who wear them is very different.

Aconite20 · 07/07/2024 18:38

And no I'm not a fashion plate but I do know by now what colours and shapes suit me and I try to show some individuality. What I do find tough is when everybody looks like they've come off the same production line or have a lifetime pass to Stepford....

Not at all. It's about fashion looks, not individual people who wear things.

flesh coloured leggings - looks at first sight like the person forgot to put anything on, no knickers, no trousers.

low backs on tops with a strange coloured bra showing. So nice floral top but showing your black or white bra. if you don't have the right coloured bra don't wear the top.

I know most things here have been about women but hairy men shouldn't be allowed in public without a shirt. it's gross.

And back to women...though I suppose it could apply to men as well. If you're going to wear sandals get ones that fit, don't have your toes hanging over the front.

Hairy men are offensive? Body hair offends you? Oh lord this thread.

I understand that's what you intended but majority of posters are just being nasty.

I mean this is the perfect example. God forbid a foreigner sees an overweight Brit in affordable leggings outside Greggs. That's nothing to do with not liking fashion trends, that's judgemental and snobby.

Crinklycrisp · 07/07/2024 18:53

Not all French women are thin and beautiful and dress well. MN is bloody obsessed with looking French.

ElizabethZott1961 · 07/07/2024 18:54

ruethewhirl · 07/07/2024 17:12

Eh, I dunno. I think it's possible to talk about trends we consider unflattering without tearing down the wearers of said trends. I like cold shoulder tops but I don't take it personally that most people on MN seem to hate them.

Absolutely. This was the intention behind the thread.

Misogynistic and racist! You sound delightful. Reported. I appreciate that you didn’t have bad intentions with your thread OP but unfortunately some people are too unpleasant to appreciate this.
