HELP! Saw my dream outfit on the school run

75 replies

niccstar3000 · 14/06/2025 09:38

I need a hive mind to help me source part of this outfit, please! Oh and my dream outfit is pretty simple, nothing magnificent 😁

So, I saw a woman on the school this week and was unable to ask her (darn it) where her linen/linen look dungarees are from. Since I have searched Vinted, Ebay and Google shopping and I can't find anything even similar, so I guess they are quite old.

Has anyone seen, or own and don't want anymore a pair of dungarees that look like this:

Dark blue, linen, relaxed fit (so no defined waist) sort of cuffed or elasticated bottoms that were, on her, lower calf length, and had a bib at the front but just crossed braces style straps at the back.

I hope this description is good enough, I can try again if not. Thanks so much everyone, I feel very strongly like i need this item of clothing!!! I turned 40 in December and appear to be trying to reinvent my style!

If you find dark blue linen dungarees that suit you, plus have a similar bib at the front, you could just take them to a tailor to be elasticated to your desired length at the bottom?

Halara have similar.

niccstar3000 · 14/06/2025 13:05

Thank you so much @DeSoleil for the suggestion, but these aren't quite right. These ones were sort of straight down relaxed fit, with no back, just crossed straps.

@lilylooleelala yes, that's a great point thank you, it's just I can't find any with the crossed back I'm after.

Was it Ollie & Nic? I got mine in 2023 and they don’t seem to have them on website anymore - I wear S/M as a sz14. Might be able to pick them up on vinted?

Lucy & Yak?

That’s what I thought too.

May not be exactly the ones but I've been yearning for these...

No I don't think it's these, the pockets don't look right. Thank you though!

These are the most similar I've seen so far. Thank you!

@Ilovemyshed I thought this too but they don't do anything similar. Not at the moment anyway...I'll check Vinted.

There are heaps on vinted, if you're happy to peruse and wait for the algorithm to start showing you stuff.

oddandelsewhere · 14/06/2025 14:13

They might be Grizas ones, they are great! Quite hard to find, but Follyology in Holt have them and they sell online. I'm sorry I don't know how to do a link!
(I've got a strong feeling now that I need some too.)

Shein and TEMU ads often go through my timelines on social media featuring these

Have you tried Next? I have khaki leopard print pair that sound similar (maybe different hems) that they stocked in the Emma Willis Range a few years back, with some plain colourways. Also try searching for ‘linen jumpsuit’? Might come up with more choices. Are the cross straps solid or stringy?

MuddlingThrough1724 · 14/06/2025 14:53

Maybe Beyond Nine?

Ooo great, I'll look thank you. The straps were solid.
