I’m liking the scarf and blouse.

I'm definitely going to be checking out the knitwear. Sadly I'm away that weekend so won't be able to go in person so will have to rely on online.

It does look like a lovely collection. Hoping it's not all acrylic.

I quite like the red sweatshirt but I don't need another one so I won't be buying it.

I don't really feel that I need a top with 'Divine Feminine', 'Honey' or 'Nature' written on it. I struggle with slogan tops!

Floisme · 13/10/2024 17:47

If I don't get washed away in the crush, I'll check out the blazer and the oversize V-neck jumper. I've got other demands on my cash though so they'll have to be good,

Seagall · 13/10/2024 17:47

All the slogans are silly, so no.

Lentilweaver · 13/10/2024 17:48

They look a bit naff to me.

MounjaroUser · 13/10/2024 17:51

Why the hell would a grown woman want a top with a slogan on it?

I’ve always been disappointed in the quality and fabrics of Bella Freud’s own brand, so I wouldn’t be interested in following her to M and Ess.

mynameiscalypso · 13/10/2024 17:56

I quite like the brown jumper but not enough to buy it. If the blue pinstripe suit is in the collection, I do like the look of that. I'm not sure about the colours of the shirt in the picture but I like the concept so I hope it's available in other combinations.

Floisme · 13/10/2024 18:04

I'm pretty sure the pinstripe suit's in the collection @mynameiscalypso I've seen mention of matching trousers (which are pictured in that M&S feature that @KirstenBlest linked - thank you!) and also of a pleated skirt, although I can't remember where I read that.

PeggyMitchellsCameo · 13/10/2024 18:05

I like the striped shirt also!

mynameiscalypso · 13/10/2024 18:06

@Floisme Oh thank you! I'm not sure I need it per se but I am intrigued enough to have a look.

Floisme · 13/10/2024 18:10

Same here @mynameiscalypso - I'll race you there on Thursday morning!

Lovethatforyouhun · 13/10/2024 18:19

Bit ten years ago tbh.
Not a fan of her jumpers and candles that glorify a paedo either.
Ginsberg is certainly no god, unless you’re a nonse.

Agree. Someone very generously bought me a long sleeve slogan t as a present a few years ago. The actual t is really basic, high crew neck, creases badly, boring fit

CoastalCalm · 13/10/2024 19:14

The slogans make it look like they’re from TU or George at Asda

Floisme · 13/10/2024 19:17

That's interesting about the quality of her own brand - I don't think I've ever seen it for real so thanks for the warning

Itsbaloney · 13/10/2024 19:22

It looks dated. Nothing there I would be interested in.

Astrabees · 13/10/2024 19:48

The slogan jumpers are cashmere, I like the red one. Perhaps I’m odd but I like some slogan tops, the Whistles sweatshirts are lovely.

QuintessentialDragon · 13/10/2024 20:34

Hell no.

I'm 36, Amazonian height, resting bitch face in place, just why would I walk around with 'HONEY' on my boobs? Honey? Really? Just need 'Babe' for the full house.

Or 'NATURE'. Again, whilst not sexist this time, but I'd find it really odd to have a random word on my top. Just..why? Why nature particularly? So bizarre.

The blue striped shirt is ok more or less (maybe). The rest is twee and dated.

😆This.

Is this Sigmund Freud's great great great....grand daughter?
