What the fuck is this fashion?!!!

[Soubriquet]

What grown adult would wear this?

Why would you even model it?!

I like it. I'm a bit over such short dresses unless with a bikini but I think it looks great on the real life pics. I love H&M, I buy nearly all my clothes in there, it's brilliant value and so long as you are careful it's really on trend and often well made and well cut (exceptions obviously, some is vile and cheap looking)

Yeah, I can just see me wearing one or other of those - the day I decide to go to a fancy dress party dressed as a 1970's Sindy doll.

I don’t love the long wafty dresses and skirts that are popular at the moment. Especially when paired with sparkling white trainers. I think the dress has to be really quite expensive and have enough quality fabric with a nice drape to work well. And the trainers are just a bit obvious.

damnthatanxiety fucking hell she looks like a wingnut

It looks like the bridesmaid's dress at my wedding 30 years ago but more billowy.

Very 80’s looking, if you were into that type of thing in the 80’s.
I knew it looked shit back then.

Oh well, if a teen doesn’t like it, let’s all bow down to her pearls of wisdom. From what I see around me, they’re the last people I’d be taking fashion advice from.

Brilliant 🤣🤣

Isn't there also a tulle version?

That might hang better!

Thank you for that, been looking for a nightdress for a while.

That would make a very uncomfortable nightdress. Looks like it cuts into the armpits a bit.

Bloody expensive nightgown too

Hideous

That dress made me audibly snort, so it can't be an entirely bad thing?

I was expecting Disney princess sleeves, but these looked more like a hot air balloon.

I like it. Women are so afraid to wear something different so most of them plod about in the same old outfits from Sainsbury's and criticise those who wear something that stands out.

I agree with PP - fashion should be fun.

I cannot see the harm in it at all.

I think it looks fab on this woman!

I think it looks fab on this woman!

I agree!

If I would look like that in it I'd have one in every colour!

See that looks lovely and is a much better photograph that the actual model is wearing

I think I prefer the short one to the longer one, although generally I do prefer longer dresses as I have shit legs. But the sleeves on the shorter one are shorter too and it's just a bit more of an understated shape.

You need to charge up your phone.

I like it

Better?

The lockdown might have inspired this vogue for frivolous fashion. People want a pick-up and a bit of over-the-top fun, after all the deprivation of being stuck indoors. After the war, fifties fashion was exteeme, with big full skirts and nipped in waists, and in the twenties designers called bows and trims 'ridiculous' as though it were a good thing.
Modern puffed sleeves seem like the Pierrot dolls - not real. The material would need to be good because there's so much of it to look at. At least the sleeves balance out the width of the flounce and differentiate the look from 'hippy' which is non-existent at the top.

Actually seen this worn in real life by a woman in I would guess, her early forties, with flatform rainbow soled converse shoes, right in front of a branch of H and M, where the same dress was on a model in the window! She looked very confident in it. Looks a nightmare to iron

I would have worn it under 25. When you're young and slim everything looks fantastic
