Can I ask if any of you have seen these for sale anywhere please?

Preferably a jersey or cotton spaghetti strap skater dress. Price range is New Look/Dotty P/M&S/Primark.

Tia!

I have not but oh my goodness these bring back memories of the late nineties for me! I wore them so much as a young teen.

Buddyelf · 22/08/2019 13:59

oh wow I had one identical to the one on the right. When I was 11. In 1996.

Cocolapew · 22/08/2019 14:00

Primark have then, I saw them yesterday and put DD off one by saying I wore them when they were about in the 90's Grin.
I think maybe Matalan had them too but I'm not 100%.

Wildthyme · 22/08/2019 14:05

River Island has some in.

ElizaDee · 22/08/2019 14:08

@notanothercrapusername Alas, any originals I might have lying about won't fit me anymore.

@Cocolapew Thanks, I'll look in there tomorrow.

@Wildthyme Thank you, I'll look at thier website now.

I’m so glad this look is back in because I have some from the 1990s in my wardrobe which I will dust off again.

LarryDuff · 22/08/2019 14:14

Yes - been waiting for this to come back, just need to get a leather bomber jacket and some DMs and it's 1994 again. Good times :)

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 22/08/2019 18:04

I just came on here to ask if it was 1995 again!

SunshineOutdoors · 22/08/2019 18:07

Space buns a la bjork to go with it

ThatCurlyGirl · 22/08/2019 18:10

LOVE THEM. One of my favourite looks, I like to pretend I'm Elaine from Seinfeld 😍

Urban Outfitters do great ones and always have really good end of season sales too, worth a check online.

Catmar · 22/08/2019 19:23

I never actually stopped wearing theseBlush

ThatCurlyGirl · 22/08/2019 19:39

I never stopped either, I bloody love them! Also really like wearing spaghetti strap top with a tee and jeans - here's a pic (not me) along with some other inspo Smile

Seen this a lot lately, sure most shops do them maybe ASOS/Topshop/ etc

ElizaDee · 22/08/2019 20:20

I don't bother with Topshop, their sizes are tiny and last time I went in they barely went up to a 14 :(

Is it just me that doesn’t like this look? Confused

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 22/08/2019 21:29

frappe I’m not a fan either, but yesterday I saw a woman in an animal print navy dress, over a white t-shirt, with bare legs and chunky ankle boots, and she looked so great I stopped her and told her I loved her outfit!

SinkGirl · 22/08/2019 21:33

If this outfit is back, can we have Jordan Catalano back too?

(To be fair, Jared Leto has aged better than this look 😂)

Just kidding. I’d feel like a plonker but I’m glad others are getting in a re-run!

Lucked · 22/08/2019 21:40

I wore it the first time around and I still like it.

I wore it to travel on the plane this year. Just got a black M&S slip dress and add d bonus of not having to worry about bra straps. Back in the day I got them from the lingerie department but I bought a proper dress this time.

FrappeLatte · 22/08/2019 21:41

Judy that’s nice of you, bet you made her day!

Mother87 · 22/08/2019 21:53

I'm 50,000 years young and always wear a gazillion combos of these all year round (adding cardigan/leggings/boots in the winter possibly looking like bag ladyGrin

Whoopstheregomyinsides · 22/08/2019 23:00

Got proper heart stoping flashbacks to the exact ones i wore...

KatharinaRosalie · 23/08/2019 07:53

I missed this last time around - is this a special stap dress sewn onto the t-shirt or something? You would get the same effect wearing a spaghetti strap over a random white t-shirt, no?

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 23/08/2019 08:10

No, it is literally just a strappy dress worn over a t-shirt, usually worn with trainers. All the rage when I was about 15!
