Nude leggings, surely no.

[BarrelOfOtters]

They look weird and like you've forgotten half your clothes...

I googled the nude lycra playsuit thing, it looks like undies. Like shapewear or something.
I can't believe people think that would be okay for a church funeral.

In fairness, the ones I saw at a funeral were black, but a lot of people on the thread were very much of the opinion everyone should be able to wear whatever they want, whenever they want.

I live in (black) leggings but I have a lot of longline tops and long cardigans that cover my bum.
Agree that nude leggings can sometimes look strange from a distance on a white person.

for those saying they haven't seen the all-in-one bodysuit that's suddenly become very fashionable - it looks like this: https://www.asos.com/magic/magic-bodyfashion-low-back-shaping-bodysuit-with-short-detail-in-cappuccino/prd/204722426?ctaref=we+recommend+grid_9&featureref1=we+recommend+pers
and sometimes even shorter/ skimpier, eg this: https://www.bershka.com/gb/seamless-strappy-cycling-unitard-with-square-cut-neckline-c0p128975567.html?colorId=613&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5Zq8ufTc_wIVGAOLCh2RfwUVEAkYBiABEgImY_D_BwE

I started seeing them recently (in the last month) and have since seen whole packs of teenage girls wearing them, usually in 'nude'/ pastel colours, always skin-tight, always a bit too much like lingerie... (for a trip to the shops or whatever)

long that's even listed as underwear
haven't seen that out and about yet.

I saw a pair of these in the wild today on someone who really, really shouldn't have been wearing them.

I say that as someone who really, really shouldn't be wearing them either.

Isn't it! Amazing the amount of "feminists" on here. Quite ageist too. Maybe we should all rock ugly Boden smock dress and Veja trainers and keep them happy!

Maybe because they are comfortable. Have we gone back into Victorian times?? Do I need to get my dress hoop out and make sure I look my best at all times for the miserable judgey MNers out there?

Well if you find leggings comfortable as opposed to irritating - tight on the legs but falling down from waist and hips

It’s not body-shaming. Nobody’s saying that only people with a certain body type should wear them. They’re saying that they flatter NOBODY.

If that’s body-shaming then any critique of any style of clothing is body-shaming. For example saying that you think clear shoes are unattractive because you see people’s feet all scrunched up and sweaty 🤷‍♀️

I agree that nude leggings/cycling shorts make me do a double-take, thinking at first the person is naked from the waist down. However, it is just a fashion trend, and mainly worn by the young, slender and toned.

On the other hand, I firmly believe people should wear what they feel comfortable in, and not conform in their clothing choices to please other people.

I'm not a fan of comfortable sandals and sister wife style dresses, but I'd never judge anyone for wearing them, I also don't like the middle-c[ass, middle-aged summer uniform of floral dress, white trainers, cropped denim jacket and accessorised with a crossbody bag - again, if that's what you like, and enjoy wearing, then go ahead. I wouldn't wear either outfit but people who do wear them generally look fabulous, if a little Stepford.

The thought of the sweat and thrush....
🤢

Seems to be the fashion for the young things in our local town whatever size they are. Complete with matching crop tops. Two girls were ahead of me and DH coming out of the station the other day and we both thought they were naked!

I did thin the girls/women wearing little floppy skirts and dresses or floppy trousers and non Lycra shorts looked cooler and better.

it’s such an unlikelook to be so fashionable when almost nobody looks good in it.

Oh come on. Nude leggings look absolutely hideous. People can wear what they want, but they’re vile.

Does that opinion mean I can’t be a feminist? Please, do let me know what the rules are.

I think the 'No one must tell the truth say anything negative about other people's choices' thing has fuelled this decent into some very strange main stream looks these days.

''It looks good on that celeb (in her £££ designer version of it with £££ professionally photo-shopped-into-pure-fantasy non-reality world pics) so i will copy it and look just as good for only £9.99 from Asos!''

Yeah .... erm ... no actually.

My objection to all this is that it's only acceptable because it's popular/fashionable.

Can you imagine how any girl who dressed like this of her own free choice rather than because everyone else does would be treated by her peers? She would be destroyed.

Bloody hell, literally everything on MN causes thrush.

That's an interesting point.
I've thought this at various times seeing fashions change.

I remember wearing skin tight Levi Roxannes years ago thinking flares would never ever come back and how daft anyone would look if they wore them. But we were all in boot cut kick flares (remember the Miss Sixty's?) within a few years saying ''who on earth would ever wear skinny jeans again ...'' 😂

Really not sure the skin tight lycra 'left the house naked' look will come around again <hopes>

I blame Kim Kardashian for this look. I bet when she's away from the cameras, she's wearing loose and comfortable cotton dresses, and the flesh coloured leggings are consigned to the bin.

I think if you've got the body confidence then wear whatever you like.

They're not my style but so what if people don't like it? People don't like lots of things.

As a larger lady myself you can prize my black leggings* *out of my cold dead hands..... I wear them with longer tops and often wear them to work (office job).
I don't care if others 'don't understand' why people would wear them out of the house!
The nude ones are a step too far for me, I have a teenage daughter and whilst she hasn't asked me for nude leggings yet the time will probably come as her friends and older peers are wearing them. If she wants to wear them I will get her some because fashion changes and there is always an outcry at first before people get used to something.
I remember when black leggings came back after being consigned to the 80's, loads of us in the office laughed and now we all wear them🤷‍♀️

Any leggings that show/accentuate cellulite is a no from me. The only nude leggings I wear are these that look alright https://www.gymwear.co.uk/products/famme-motion-seamless-leggings-brown?variant=43891826295008&currency=GBP&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google+shopping

Yes. I can confirm that the nude ones but with those panels to lift and with cinching so they properly disappear into your arse crack are worse than straight forward nude leggings. The woman on the school run wearing one you could see all those uneven dents and I'm sure they actually made her particular backside less smooth than it normally would luck as figure wise I'd be so pleased if I had hers! Two cars beeping as they went past the school stood almost in the road and unfortunately I think it was her seemingly naked arse drawing that. Not that it's OK to behave like that, but I wasn't the only one biting my lip at her confusion. The colour matching in her case to her bare arms was pretty spot on.

I couldn’t agree more, but I do find myself doing a double take occasionally because at first glance I think the person has no keks on… it’s disconcerting and not a
look I personally would go for. But yes it takes all kinds 😂
