No, no it’s not

Greenteandchives · 01/04/2019 18:50

Not for me it isn’t.

Mominatrix · 01/04/2019 18:51

It's a no from me.

Prinstress · 01/04/2019 18:53

That is fucking hideous

Hollowvictory · 01/04/2019 18:54

No. Frumpy. And you need very skinny arms.

Loseitandkeepitlost · 01/04/2019 18:55

No, that's a horror of a dress.

MrsSpenserGregson · 01/04/2019 18:55

I think it's quite cute, and I love the model's hair!

Pinkyyy · 01/04/2019 18:56

Not unless you enjoy looking shapeless

Worriedaboutmyds · 01/04/2019 18:56

I like itGrin

sparklefarts · 01/04/2019 18:56

No

MrsMozartMkII · 01/04/2019 18:59

I quite like it Grin

SosigDog · 01/04/2019 19:01

Since when do women who are young enough to have kids at school shop at Bon Marche?!

Starwednesday · 01/04/2019 19:02

I like it!

QueenBlueberries · 01/04/2019 19:02

Nop.

CountFosco · 01/04/2019 19:03

Na, it's something like this. Cotton jersey, also got pockets and available in petite, regular and tall. No reference to fashion but oh so practical.

Starwednesday · 01/04/2019 19:03

Ah just realised it’s bon marche they don’t do any 6/8 sizes very annoying

HotSauceCommittee · 01/04/2019 19:06

I just bought this: www.whitestuff.com/womens/dresses/coral-red-print-selina-fairtrade-dress/#YNUKSQgLMUoAAAFpI_4L5tYQ
This will be my school run and everything else dress this summer.

FaFoutis · 01/04/2019 19:07

That is horrible, so it might be.

Do you work for Bonmarche OP?

Badtasteflump · 01/04/2019 19:09

Presumably OP is having a (late) April Fool prank?

Tomtontom · 01/04/2019 19:10

No. It doesn't even fit the model properly.

EffYouSeeKaye · 01/04/2019 19:10

I like that, HotSauce.

Hollowvictory · 01/04/2019 19:16

Nice print on the white stuff one but would it be the usual baggy shapeless number they always do

JuniperSling · 01/04/2019 19:25

It's a bit Stepford Wife-ish.

Zoflorabore · 01/04/2019 19:27

Bon Marche is vile.
My dgm is 83 and has dementia and even she wouldn't be seen dead in it.

Who is their target demographic?

Disfordarkchocolate · 01/04/2019 19:30

@HotSauceCommittee I used to love White Stuff till we got one near me, now its definitely the clothing of choice for the over 60's ++++.
