A friend used to wear shell suits. I thought they looked hideous.

Any cold shoulder top/dress/jumpsuit. Just awful and remind me of Liz Macdonald on Corrie from about 25 years ago.

I hate ripped jeans. I can’t imagine paying money for something that’s already destroyed.
And I hate trainers. They’re so ugly.

Heruka · 24/11/2021 22:15

The current thing for granny dresses and trainers. Weird, I don’t get it.

BigDayToday · 24/11/2021 22:22

Low rise jeans.

High heels.

I wore a shell suit Blush

MrsLeclerc · 24/11/2021 22:23

Ponchos. There were a few years where the shops and my casual office were a wasteland of ugly knitted ponchos.

Similarly those kimono cardigan things that were popular recently. They don’t go with everything. They don’t dress up any outfit.

whenwillthemadnessend · 24/11/2021 22:24

Cold shoulder and Bardot tops

merryhouse · 24/11/2021 22:24

Playsuits.

I don't mind the garment too much, but I really hate the name. It's even worse than boilersuit.

Herman Munster boots.
They seem to be a bit popular ATM. Lots of women on the school run looking like 9 irons.

Troyes76 · 24/11/2021 22:26

Leggings.
I love tights, but leggings I just don’t understand!

Itsabeautifuldaytosavelives123 · 24/11/2021 22:27

heeled ankle boots with jeans

yellowflowersintherain · 24/11/2021 22:29

Combat trousers and vest tops

Really low rise jeans that gave you a muffin top no matter how thin you were

ineedsun · 24/11/2021 22:32

Apart from shell suits I’d happily wear all of these 😂

ineedsun · 24/11/2021 22:32

Oh. And ponchos.

nannybeach · 24/11/2021 22:32

Tights,dresses around at the moment and for a few months, shapeless, puffy gathered sleeves. Bright colours, look like tinned chocolates

Blackfridayshite · 24/11/2021 22:33

Leggings where you can see the outline of knickers🤮

DontTellThemYourNamePike · 24/11/2021 22:33

Ra ra skirts (going back a few years here). Mostly because my wide hipped teenage self looked utterly ridiculous in them. I remember trying one on and coming out of the changing room to find my sister snorting with laughter. She looked fab in them!

SickAndTiredAgain · 24/11/2021 22:34

I really don’t like chunky shoes - trainers, boots, sandals, anything.

Thighdentitycrisis · 24/11/2021 22:35

Puff ball dresses/ skirts

wheresmymojo · 24/11/2021 23:13

Agree with cold shoulder tops

The current high neck, puffy sleeved, midi monstrosities that look either like a dress for a three year old or an 80s prom throwback

Those little 'shrug' bolero cardigans (yes, I wore them at the time but in hindsight they're hideous)

Whale tails (low rise jeans with thongs - as in knickers not flip flops)

Only one mum has got these at the dds school. It's the mum who was apparently a minor footballers wife once. She's stunning. Boots are yuck.

It's a weird infantilising of adult clothing
MrsMoastyToasty · 24/11/2021 23:32

Crop tops. I have always hated baring my belly and always got a cold back.

Bunce1 · 24/11/2021 23:36

Old shoulder tops. Why?
Peplum tops or dresses. They don’t flatter anyone.

Mega ripped jeans all the way down. Very Russian bride lewk.

Most things from ted baker

Bell sleeves that are narrow at the top and super wides at the bottom. Wizard sleeves? Gross.

monarchoftheglen · 24/11/2021 23:40

"Wet look" leggings.
