that awful pink m&s dress...

[Bleurghghghgh]

Is now haunting me via ads, with additional horrific items! Thanks MN!

Well.

I've bought another dress from Peacocks and it acts like a slip.

I've also had a job accessorising it.

Clip, pussy ears and fascinator from Claire's Accessories.

Sorry posted too soon.

Dolphin sunglasses from H&M

Umbrella from Debenhams

Bag from The Disney Store

Morph mask is model's own

Wide fit raspberry suede sandals from Debenhams

I tried it with a belt to see if it improved matters.

It didn't. I looked like Friar Tuck on his way to Pride Birmingham marching today.

😂 ginger, I think I love you.

.

The only thing that could improve it could be some tinsel?

I was thinking perhaps feather boa.

It's astonishing that the dress managed to make you, a person who looks good in a vest and shorts, look as terrible as you did

Thanks I think 😂

Ginger, are you wearing a gimp mask? You're making me laugh, I think you look great, honestly I think the guardian will be writing about you as a style guru shortly 😍

Omg ginger, I have just spat out my wine!

Nightmares' tonight for us ginger

Morph masks can be bought as single items.

Argos

A boa would be waaaaay to classy - unless it was of the snake variety in which it would definitely give it a certain je ne sais pas.

I feel for Mr ginger though. Imagine coming home to that!

Ginger you win the internet today for those pictures - "Morph Mask model's own" Pffffftttttt! I'm after spitting out my prosecco at that one!

I had to do a double take when I read "Pussy Ears" too..... my mind must be elsewhere at the moment

I need to see a supermodel, Kate moss or someone, wearing it. It has to look good on someone!

I'm devastated.
I went into M&S today to take a selfie of how bad I look in that dress and they didn't stock it
DH kept saying 'why are you wanting to try it on? It's horrid' and just didn't understand that THAT'S THE POINT

Are you sure they hadn't sold out? They are 'flying off the shelves' you know.

Ginger, are you wearing a gimp mask? You're making me laugh, I think you look great, honestly I think the guardian will be writing about you as a style guru shortly

I have a dream. A dream where women across the country rise up!

Guerrilla try ons by real women. Clothes sold by anonymous models who look like us! Who are us.

Short! Tall! Wide! Stumpy arms and legs and all!

I have a dream! Yes! A campaign for flattering clothes for normal women. As we make a mockery of the travesties the shops try to sell us!

The red version of these have almost completely sold out.

These (for those that don't want to be followed by M&S ads)

I love this thread.

I'm going to dream (nightmare?) about a faceless woman in lurid pink

Mwahahahahahahaha! 😈

Looks like Pennywise the Clown 2017 is bang on trend....

I am visiting DS in Newcastle this weekend and tonight I saw a woman wearing the pink dress! I am amazed to report it looked quite nice . So if you were the 30 something lady outside The Botanist what was your secret?

M&S were actually one of the last big clothing retailers to stop manufacturing in the UK. They were reluctant to move, as I remember, but said they just wouldn't be able to compete unless they did

M&S and Laura Ashley. I appreciate Laura Ashley wasn't every one's cup of tea but if you did want that particular bucolic look they went seriously downhill when they moved production from Wales. ,
