Sardine dresses?

[ThankFuckTheSunIsHere]

Chic and French feeling or incredibly naff gimmick?

I really like the red one and strapy one. Not keen on the one with crabs because of the shape.

They are rank

didn’t see any of that in the Côte d’Azur

I like them. But then I nearly bought this jumper dress with lobsters on the sleeves; unfortunately I’m very short and don’t suit maxi length dresses.

It’s a bit jaunty for me 🤣 Like the clothing equivalent of making big earrings take the place of a personality. A bit ‘ooh I’m ever so quirky, me’.

But then I don’t wear anything patterned so I think my take is probably a bit extreme.

I find them 'of the moment' rather than witty. Like when every was wearing pinapples or moustaches on clothing.

This trend has been on the go for a while now - especially last year. I thought it had died a death but see a bit of resurgence. Next seem to like this stuff .

Love. Them.

I like them.

Trendy. I've seen some knit sweater patterns with fish swimming around lately.

I quite like them, but also think they look like a 'fun' Boden print. Definitely not chic or French feeling, the French would never. But I quite like some 'fun' Boden prints, especially seasidey ones, so that's fine.

It's a change from the desperately dull plain neutrals in every shop, at least. I love a print.

Accept it’s not strictly “French” as such - am a very visual person and the imaging around such dresses is putting me in mind of someone wafting around a French market with a huge wicker basket 🤣

Good point about “fun” Boden prints @BelleEpoque27!! This is off putting 😕

Now I DO love a big earring! 🤷🏻‍♀️

🤣🤣🤣

This comment makes me feel
conflicted! 🤣

I think the one colour is probably best. Less “Jazzy” if you will.

Definitely a nautical theme going on!

I actually really love the style and colours of the first one - blue sardines with red trim! But, it’s a pity it looks as though “sardines” is spelled incorrectly across the top?! It reads SRADINES.

Just thinking that. They are not my style but even if I did like the print I think I would be nervous of being gnawed by my cats, lol.

Oh gosh yes I didn’t see the spelling error on the first one. That’s a bit embarrassing. Like when my friend bought some fake Levi’s in Thailand and they said Evil instead of Levi.

It’s Shein but very similar to the stuff Next is doing at the moment. Massive bold fruit or seaside theme prints. They remind me of toddlers story time dressing up, or French ‘chic’ in the style of a Breton top, beret and string of onions.

It could be fun, holiday, I’ve had too many cocktails vibe, in the same way I like a Christmas jumper. But for everyday normal life wear, no.

Along the bottom it says "forever sardines". 🫣 I don't think I'll buy it.

These designs have been on Shein since last summer....

I have seen a lot of Sardine / tinned fish themes and patterns. Cute on a pencil pot, tea towel or little make up bag - but personally too much on a dress.

I can not imagine a French woman wearing a dress covering in massive fish prints.

I’d only consider it on a sunny day at seaside destination but would prefer discreet lobsters 😄
