H&M - what are they thinking?

There's some mad stuff going on in the world and people have lost their minds. But when it comes to H&M's designers, they take the whole biscuit tin.
I get their daily emails with new fashion updates, things they want you to buy, and every day I shake my head in disbelief that anyone in their right mind would want to dress this way. Today's one is particularly bad. Am I just out of touch or something??! 🤯

@PotassiumPermanganate can we see?

They do it to get people talking about them. Job done.

I think I just found the housecoat I needed to protect my clothes from cat fur 😂

There’s a thread somewhere on here about how husbands and partners don’t understand women’s fashion and take the p out of it… well, I’m not sure I understand women’s fashion either. I went into Fatface to try on a fleece I liked the look of and struggled to get it over my head. In the mirror I could just about peep through the opened buttons of the neckline to see my reflection and realised I looked like somebody in a hot water bottle costume. I don’t have a six foot frame or much of a neck… so I saved myself 60 odd quid.

All I’m seeing is material which is a fire hazard waiting to happen.

This is a bit early Vivienne Westwood, I like it!

Another instance where having a shapeless model turns the dress into a rag you can’t quite figure out. Fashion Btec year1 students at work.

Everything is a shade of beige. In every shop. Colour has disappeared.

Never mind shapes, styles, cuts.

PrimalLass · 25/09/2025 11:00

I ordered five things this week and every one of them is mad sizing in either direction.

100% polyester. I’d be sweating like crazy. I’d be just as comfortable in large bin bag.

It's a joke.

How about their fur shoes?

PoliteRaven · 25/09/2025 11:16

Absolutely dire!

I went shopping for the first time in forever last week - and was appalled at every shop!

Purplecatshopaholic · 25/09/2025 11:19

See, we are all different - thank god, lol. I like that dress if it was not a man made fabric. I’d leave those hairy shoes on the shelf though.

Oh that would be excellent for pretending to be Margot from The Good Life, or a character from Abigail's party. I want it to waft round in.

This is a rip off of 'Kat from Finance'. They have literally copied her..

Yep but the line is spoiled imo by wearing ill-fitting trousers and black pointy shoes underneath it - also wondering if the black lace bit is part of the dress or the trousers which look about 2-3 inches too long.

aold · 25/09/2025 11:34

where are the simple classics, in single colors with no tassels, buttons or added details? In natural fibres which don’t crackle when you put them on?

These are both hilarious and ridiculous 😂
