Boohoo must go to VERY different funerals to me...

Looking for something to wear to a funeral, and found a page on boohoo specifically titled Funeral, that said they had selected these items to help you feel strong on a difficult day. Either things have changed quite a bit since I last attended one, or they might want to tweak their algorithm...

My DD worked in Primark.

One day a woman came in, returning size 12 black pleather leggings. She was a generous 16. Apparently the leggings were poor quality because they'd split down the backside seam the first time she wore them.

She told DD it was doubly embarrassing as it happened at a funeral 😮

But pleather leggings are still better than the bikini/see through dress combo.

With exception of the see through dress and a few that I think are a bit on the short side the rest all look OK.

Well obviously the dressing gown goes over the sheer dress for the church and burial, then whip it off for the wake.

I love that the photo was blurred as sensitive content. However will we cope with a woman in a transparent dress with a bikini underneath.

It would make a funeral more interesting I suppose. 😂

This thread has given me the giggles on public transport.

You think the see through dress is suitable for a funeral? God I'm pretty relaxed but there is no way on earth I'd wear that for a funeral.

agree. very inappropriate

Beach funerals are woefully overlooked by most retailers. Finding something you can wear for Uncle Ragnar's longboat fireship farewell AND Glastonbury is no easy feat.

🤣
