that awful pink m&s dress...

[Bleurghghghgh]

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

98% cotton and 2% elastane.

It feels like a neoprene wetsuit.

Per Una's take on tropical.

This skirt is extraordinary.

The outer, laser cut/'lace' layer feels like it's made of felt.

The inner layer is something that feels like cotton.

So they want uo wearing what is effectively two skirts during the hottest season.

It even comes with a matching top.

Again, boat neck with gaping holes in the sides for your arms.

So funny to see this. My daughter and I walked past it the other day and had to go back for a photo it was SO SO vile. Feels disgusting too.

I love the M&S sleuthing.

How much extra fabric was there around the middle on the pink dress? The more photos I've seen the more I'm convinced it's The One
for this 1977 party. But I probabaly need to order online, and wondering what size will fit over 22 week bump (and alarmingly huge boobs at present).

I can just about fit into a size 16 in most other shops.

This is vanity sizing at it's worst.

Try a size 22 to account for the bump, bit be prepared to go down to a 20 or even an 18.

Wtf! Wow if those items make the models look that shite they would make me look like a sack of spuds!

I hate that boho shite is making a comeback. I thought we left all that nonsense back in 2005.

The eighties are back and seem to want blood.

There are a lot of floral prints in a Country Diary of an Edwardian lady kind of way.

Dreamy pinks, nice Ted Baker style prints on light background and, of course, tropical style.

Nice prints. Shame about the lack of sleeves.

Oh my bloody eyes at some of those pics! 😮

And if you're ever passing, the new season involves pinstripe linen ankle grazers with coordinating short jackets.

Nice.

If you like ironing.

Gingernaut is the hero we all need.

I've never been called a hero before....

Ginger - you win the internet today for pure bravery trying on the dress not just once but twice in different sizes and for posting the pictures. Well done you!

As for M&S, they must think that women are about to join the convent or something as the only thing I've ever seen more hideous than that dress was the attire Maria rocked up to the Von Trapp household when she was sent from the convent to look after 7 unruly kids.

M&S buyers - you should collectively hang your heads in shame!!!!

Ginger nut you should start a blog! Whack some Adsense on it, along with some affiliate skimlinka and you would easily have £500 a month.

Blimey , Ginger. You should get danger money.

It's sort of gospel choir-esque

I'll think about it.

I could pretty soon run out of places that couldn't spot me.

I have visions of being escorted off premises by confused security guards given my marching orders by irate shop managers.

Yeah. Mumsnut. A drag queen gospel choir, enthusiatically singing songs from hit shows in close harmony with lots of tambourines, hand clapping and a fuck ton of jazz hands.

Honestly gngernaut you should should start a blog. "Bravely going where no woman has went before" then post pics of all the hideous clothes on.

I'm out for some retail therapy this afternoon. If I come across rhe markies monstrosity I shall also take one for the team and try it on and post a pic.😂

Bluntness100 - I'm out for some retail therapy this afternoon. If I come across rhe markies monstrosity I shall also take one for the team and try it on and post a pic.

It would be nice to know I'm not alone.

We could start a thread - High Street Monstrosities

I'm envisioning a blog like Celeste Barber's take on celebrity instagram photos

YY Bluntness! You post a pic and I will too!

You could call your blog I Wear Shit So You Don't Have To
