I just don't like the current clothes fashion

[Jourdain11]

I've been on a few clothes-shopping expeditions lately - trying to replenish my Covid-depleted wardrobe - and I've come away virtually empty-handed because I cannot find any clothes I like or which look good on me. I don't know whether my perception is weird, but the current fashion seems to be for women to wear clothing shaped like sacks! Some women look amazing in it, but unfortunately I am not one of them.

Am I being weird about this, or does anyone else wish they could find clothing with some semblance of shape? Even dresses seem to be either shapeless or like something out of Little House on the Prairie!

I'm not very 'girly', but nor do I wish to dress in a duvet cover with holes for the arms and neck 🤔

Snap. Only had 2 disasters so far. But my disaster is a charity shop donation I suppose. Beautiful winter boots just arrived, new condition, less than a quarter of new price.

@Maireas totally agree it's over buying but just explaining another reason why things may be on vinted, not necessarily nicked!

I miss Debenhams and Dorothy Perkins so much! Bring them back!

I comfort myself that in the fullness of time, there will be threads a bit like this bemoaning lower rise trousers and skirts, tailoring and fitted clothes, and I will be in my element!

Current fashion is just not my personal style at all.

Someone mentioned Zara - their clothes are so bloody long, I end up having to alter them. Don't like their fabrics much, so frankly don't want to spend the time doing that.

Both available online, which I realise is not the same. I return about 90% of what I order, mostly due to sizing issues and having to order multiple sizes.

@Snippysocks try Crew clothing, wouldn’t normally shop there but discovered my dream white jeans there!

@WisteriaHysteria22
Thank you! I looked in our local store today but they didn't have any white jeans. However, Fatface had some cream ones (bought)....😊
