I'll start. Lots of younger women don't seem to have big handbags / large purses / wallets anymore.

What else have you noticed?

I think it is because it is usually too cold, wet and muddy wehre I live to wear impractical clothes (edge of Pennines).

This March has been an exception though with mostly dry, sunny days. I still haven't seen any pyjama clad folk though.

Yep one son is in Yorkshire, lots of practical clothing.

Those of you despairing at Vogue's affection for the baggy bottoms with baggy tops, enjoy the new season's show by Cos 😂 I'm rarely moved by Cos (I may have previously been heard muttering "overpriced bullshit" like the ancient curmudgeon I am) but I've trawled their website and LOVE EVERYTHING this season! I haven't loved Cos this much since - umm, three years ago maybe - when they did all unexpected geometric seams.

Sadly, my Total Clothes Ban is in force but I'm already working out which of my existing baggy items I can layer to similar effect.

Here's the show. Gorgeous location, wonder why she told the models to look like their feet hurt?

All those beautiful young people in gorgeous clothes and what a stunning location!

What a beautiful show, and an amazing location. Ethereal and edgy!

I don't know if it's a trend as such but young women seem very....large, and perfectly happy to wear very tight revealing clothes.

I'm not sure if that's good or not.

That’s a tricky one - I’m not thin and have struggled with my self esteem all my life so from that point of view I’m glad people can feel more comfortable to wear what they like.

But there’s no getting away from the fact that being larger often isn’t healthy and I don’t think denying that in the name of ‘body positivity’ is a great idea.
