I've got the full length version from Elsie's Attic, and while they are really comfy, they look a bit scruffy.
I am absolutely not a dungaree person, but I do like them. I just get changed in to my jeans before I leave the house.

Yes but not with the grey long sleeve top

Dailywalk · 08/03/2021 21:26

Little bit worried they’d make me look like a had a baby bump? Bit different to what is usually go for.

Black or white vest top underneath instead?

Nope, I don’t think they’re nice. They look too “try hard” trendy

RunningFromInsanity · 08/03/2021 21:31

Yes, vest or short sleeve top.

Cotswoldmama · 08/03/2021 21:32

It depends on your style the look a bit hippy art teachery to me. I like them but not for me!

Handsnotwands · 08/03/2021 21:33

I like them but they look very much like the £10 ones you can buy on eBay e.g www.ebay.co.uk/itm/323888122298

AreTurnipsReal · 08/03/2021 21:34

They're lovely and cute! With a pair of trendy white trainers perhaps?? I love them! Might get some.

This.

Lovely.

justanotherneighinparadise · 08/03/2021 21:42

The material looks really thin.

Dailywalk · 08/03/2021 21:45

Hmmm... they do look a bit thin now I look again.

Dungarees are never nice, sorry.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 08/03/2021 22:34

I think they are nice BUT I don’t see how they can be both one size and “slim fit”. So I think they might not be very flattering and are possibly cleverly pinned on the model.

gracefull · 08/03/2021 22:42

No they’re awful

EL8888 · 08/03/2021 22:53

I like them!

Onlinedilema · 08/03/2021 22:56

I think they only work on very boheimian types. Ok if you are throwing pottery for example.

MonochromeMinnie · 08/03/2021 22:57

I've said it to my adult daughter and I'll say it to you, nobody over the age of 12 has any business wearing dungarees, unless they're a painter and decorator or a children's television presenter.

AnyFucker · 08/03/2021 22:58

I love them

Giraffaelina · 09/03/2021 00:22

Things normally look good on models ( even if a bit unconventional) but this even looks dreadful on her...

Do you think? I thought they looked nice but wasn’t sure how they’d look on a normal person. I was undecided but given they’re £40 to possibly look like I was mid way through decorating my art studio I’m swaying more to the ‘no’ camp.

I think her reflection in the mirror looks very unflattering. And when I say "model" I meant the person modelling the clothes, regardless of shape and size. But I might be negatively biased as I don't actually like it at all, mainly due to the patternConfused

OddsNSodsBitsNBobs · 09/03/2021 10:07

I'm my opinion they look like they are for an overgrown toddler, sorry!

sonjadog · 09/03/2021 10:53

I like the shape and the pattern is okay if you like leopard print, but the material looks a bit thin. Not sure about the quality.
