Its poo coloured

Mikki77 · 18/06/2020 17:37

Maybe its to help with the 2 meter rule!!!

Makinglemonadefromlemons · 18/06/2020 17:47

It’s awful!!!
I can’t believe anyone would have thought it was a good idea to market it!

simiisme · 18/06/2020 17:48

I think that all the 'Styled by you' women look really good in it.
But the model is standing like a grumpy farmer, scowling like a stroppy toddler and wearing sandals that nobody would wear for a night out.
It's an odd approach to marketing!

Makinglemonadefromlemons · 18/06/2020 17:51

And I’ve just seen they are charging £49.99 for it!!!!!!!!

Matildalamp · 18/06/2020 17:55

I laughed til tears ran down my cheeks, at the dress, and the comments.

Craftycorvid · 18/06/2020 17:55

Um, yes, grim!

Does anyone else think there is a special boutique for local TV news anchors and weather girls? I have literally never seen anyone else in those odd bodycon numbers that create that VPL and shelf bosom effect, and in what appears to be synthetic fibre that’s a fire hazard. These are attractive women in plain awful garb?! Hmm

I quite liked it on the other photos (styled by you). The main model looks horrible

HansBanans · 18/06/2020 17:58

That colour reminds me of my grandparents’ old bathroom Grin

Redannie118 · 18/06/2020 18:01

Ha i was sooooo close to starting a thread about this yesterday!!!

grannieali · 18/06/2020 18:02

The black with spots is marginally better, but I am mentally working out how to alter almost everything to make it wearable. It is UGLY however you look at it. However there seems to be a section of young buyers who scorn anything which flatters and set out to be as ugly as possible, though I doubt they would wear this as it is , presumably evening wear.. I occasionally watch a programme where hapless young men choose an outfit for a girl they have not met. Some young men choose quite attractive outfits but the girls are often appalled rejecting elegance at all costs. It's our age here I'm afraid.

skyblu · 18/06/2020 18:06

Oh my! That’s quite something isn’t it

Tubs11 · 18/06/2020 18:19

Nine people gave it 5 stars - either paid for reviews or they really like it. Not my cup of tea

Mylifesadrama · 18/06/2020 18:19

I have no words 😶

The answer to your question CraftyCorvid is Amazon.

Hideous! At first I thought they could never match such an ugly colour to it again, until I looked at the black with white spots option.

Motherofasleepaphobe · 18/06/2020 18:24

God yes it’s hideous 😂🙈

DD (17) says it looks like a butternut squash!

Tottie · 18/06/2020 18:42

It's not that bad :/ I've seen worse. Some people obviously love it, coz it's sold out!!

Nightbirdcackle · 18/06/2020 18:44

Oh my ... usually when people post links to "ugly" dresses I quite like them. But that is something else!

Nightbirdcackle · 18/06/2020 18:45

@hoodathunkit that dress looks like something Dafydd from Little Britain might wear

Vinomummyinlockdown · 18/06/2020 18:47

I’ve asked my whole family and we alllll agree that that’s crappola !!!!! 🥴🤣

shadypines · 18/06/2020 19:02

I've seen prettier cloth wrapped around 4000 yr old mummies.
