It can go too far I think.
There needs to be a little less volume to the dresses, and not all hiker style boots are a good look.

If the model looks this bad, I would look like a toddler in mums clothes

Toast kind of tiptoe around this with styling and I just wish they’d make it a tad sleeker, at least a touch of shape to the waist area or a gradual flare.

Yikes

I don't mind that "look" but Christ that's awful

EdWinchester · 19/10/2019 14:32

I wear dresses and DMs a LOT. I like to think I don't look like this.

She looks like a nutter.

CurlyhairedAssassin · 19/10/2019 14:32

Fucking horrible

CardiFree · 19/10/2019 14:32

It's essentially a checked sack isn't it.

msrobot · 19/10/2019 14:33

I didn’t realise it was on trend, but I agree with you

RushianDisney · 19/10/2019 14:33

While I don't like the boots, I would wear the dress, that shape is so comfy and I bet it has pockets too.

msrobot · 19/10/2019 14:34

Don’t think it would suit anyone

GreekOddess · 19/10/2019 14:36

I hate this look.

AmethystWoodstar · 19/10/2019 14:37

She looks like she works in a lancashire cotton mill

Lancashire cotton mill 😂😂😂

formerbabe · 19/10/2019 14:38

It's unbearably trendy...very Shoreditch.

BakedBeeeen · 19/10/2019 14:45

To me it looks like they tried their hardest to make it look as awful as possible: awful cut, pattern, colour, sleeve length, fit, overall length.

Fuckenstein · 19/10/2019 14:47

Oh dear god, happy to not be trendy if that's what trendy looks like.

Livebythecoast · 19/10/2019 14:47

Do you think Holly Willoughby could pull it off?! She seems to look good in literally anything. not jealous at all

Skittlesandbeer · 19/10/2019 14:49

Now, I get the ‘lagenlook’ thing, I’m into it. I also like the boots with dress thing.

This is fundamentally a fugly version of either/both. A big Nope.

If you want to see a stylish version of this (knockoff), see Ewa i Walla past seasons on Pintrest.

Sagradafamiliar · 19/10/2019 14:53

Ye friggin' gods. My eyes.

dimdarkashian · 19/10/2019 14:58

That Lancashire cotton mill comment pahahaha

Musicforsnorks · 19/10/2019 14:59

Sure;y lagenlook is more considered than this with complex layering and attention to silhouette?

Some of these replies made me laugh like a hyena.

It’s the boots and socks for me, they’re just wrong.

I’m no seamstress, but the marketing cynic in me would guess it’s really easy and cheap to knock these style dresses up whilst charging a fortune for them.

Namechange84 · 19/10/2019 15:01

Is this look about trying to look as terrible as possible?

nevernotstruggling · 19/10/2019 15:01

It's dreadful and demeaning.

AlexaAmbidextra · 19/10/2019 15:03

She looks like an inmate in a Victorian asylum. If that’s ‘on trend’ then I thank God I’m not nor have no desire to be. 🙄
