I'll start

Abstract indeed. The black mix is particularly...um...abstract.

or this?

though that one isn't per una

EdgarAllenPop · 23/08/2010 13:17

Oh my!

ChippyMinton · 23/08/2010 13:18

My rule for M&S, if I have to - black or white only. The colours are always slightly wrong and the prints are beyond all reasoning, and as for anything for applied decoration - ugh!

M& S obviously stands for Market & Stall....cos thats where i see clothing like this as best placed.

Edgar there must be a top to match this ruffle skirt, as i swear my neighbour has bought it in three different colours. now i know where to get it without asking her Wink

Speziale indeed

FunnyLittleFrog · 23/08/2010 13:33

Just sneezed

I've never tried on a Per Una skirt that I haven't wanted to turn 'the right way out', only to find that the seams aren't actually seams, they're embellishment.

Autograph Weekend, though - not bad at all.

The skirts that Yuno linked to are okay in design, but they are just too long for knee length, and that is ageing.

don't shoot me, but I like these...........
purple suede platforms

MintyBadger · 23/08/2010 15:55

ChippyMinton is right and has put his little wooden paw right on it - the colours are all wrong. Nearly the right colour but just too lilac, too minty, too vomity.
The fabric is always wrong too (Wallis suffers from this too IMO). Just far far too synthetic to be good.

Chic and contemporary, this scoop neck dress features an abstract print. A fabulous fashionable look.

Who are they trying to kid?
