You can ban ONE summer look. Which?

[awfulapril]

Which kind of outfit or particular item are you seeing in the hot weather that you'd like to ban Man or woman.

illogical hatred preferred
i think bikini tops anywhere other than a Beach. At

I'm just celebrating the demise of the white gym socks over leggings sheep look. Everyone can wear whatever they want to celebrate.

Smell them 🤢🤮 Disgusting. I remember having to use a laundry when my washing machine broke down and almost vomited when the man next to me opened his bag and pulled his socks out. I agree…if your feet smell, keep them hidden!

"Basic bitches" is a misogynistic term used by insecure people (of both sexes) who define themselves in terms of their own consumer choices and need to signal their own specialness (ironically defined by their own ready to wear high street purchasing).

I agree. A loose cotton top is much cooler than the sun burning into your skin.

3/4 length trousers on ANYONE over age 10

That's interesting. I wouldn't see it that way I would say it is a bit of a pumpkin latte Facebook white socks over leggings kind of woman.

White linen trousers
Ageing

Lot of votes for shirtless men, but I would add: topless people of any sex or age.

Apart from the unappealing look, it's a foolish risk for sunburn/cancer.

If we all hate the saggy bum cheek shorts, why do people keep wearing them? Who actually likes them?
I too loathe them. I do not wish to see anyone’s arse cheeks in public.
I even saw some sort of Shein/Temu type product which is a fake transfer tattoo thing for your bum cheeks if you are wearing these kind of shorts. It was like a toadstool stern. Made me wonder how Cheryl Tweedy’s big arse cheek tattoo was weathering. Shudder.
Also to add spaghetti strap tops with a grubby bra on show underneath.

Go to Italy in warm/hot weather and you won't see any of these things from the locals.... they know how to dress properly and appropriately

tbf they're acclimatised.

Men trotting about with their tops off in the supermarket/park/town centre etc.

Ooh. Those boob tube vest tops on anyone over 25.

Men 😬

There are loads of closed toe options like these. Cheaper versions are available. Most supermarkets will have something similar.

Plus the way Ray sings, "right up tight!", it kills me. 😅 And the hoity toity accent, "as fickle as can be" etc. Just brilliant.

Those dicks shoes are very handmaids tale

Like a prosthetic foot

You misunderstood - those who use the misogynistic term are insecure and using it to "other" an imaginary, less special, "type" of women's consumer choices in the mistaken belief this makes their own consumer choices look special. It's ironic because the individual using the term is the one who is unable to separate identity from high street/ mainstream consumer purchasing.

I did.

I didn't tell people they were unfashionable and not letting it drop, I didn't tell them to get a life, and now I find it amusing that you still go on the attack, saying I have issues.

I guess I do. That kind of behaviour is annoying.

What?
I was thinking of homegrown denim users.

agree with;
men- bare chests
women-shorts that show arse cheeks

Obviously in places like High st, supermarkets, etc. At home or out in the wild do as you like!

joe and flying.

do I need to create you your own thread to write on?

It’s probably been mentioned already but I wish short puffed sleeves on dresses and tops would finally die (winter clothing too). I don’t mind a slightly puffed shoulder on a slim sleeve or a balloon cuff but I don’t want to look like an American football player or a menopausal Little Bow Peep. It’s still in the shops, usually on shapeless dresses made with more fabric than a pair of hospital curtains.

Shirtless men

Eeew, the ones who are dripping sweat. At least a t-shirt would soak it up instead of it dripping everywhere. Oh yuk.

This is normal for MN isn't it?!
But yeah, fair dos.

Me, it's PJ's. Even in the hot weather am seeing people in PJ's.
