Thought it would be good to chuck on for work (community health worker) or just casual everyday. I am 44. Is it a bit old fashioned?

I quite like it and im 28

Awful.

Might be ok for a 5 year old. Maybe.

I don't like it I'm afraid. Manages to be frumpy and childish at the same time, which is quite a feat!

Hmmm No.

I think it is one of those prints that can be just a bit too much. The print/colours would also limit what you would be able to wear it with. Trousers, boots etc.

I'm 47, and don't think I would choose it.

There are some other parkas on the website which look more useful.

Big flowers are rarely flattering. I think it looks like a sofa

I am 25 and I like it too. X

Ignore the 'X' - damn predictive text!

I quite like it but on another recent thread I was one of about three from around thirty posters who liked a pair of boots so probably not the best judge.

Not keen, sorry. I do love a parka though, and think it would be far nicer (and much more wearable) in plain navy.

I like it but then I have a rain Mac with butterfly print
