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

Sorry wrong post quoted.

I've just been into a hospital and blimey the banned list is out in force there although there were no bikini tops or bare chests. Most people looked destined for the beach.

Well a hospital is a bit different... people don't always have the opportunity to change before they end up there!

I think it's a low-rent look. I stand by my opinion.

Yes quite. I do wonder what happened in the days when dresses with trainers wasn’t a trend though. Or did people just not used to walk then

Very elegant- where are they from?

Tiered dresses/skirts

It’s hard to pick one, but seeing as a lot of flesh has been covered (on not!) by others.
I’ll go for sports sandals in all their forms, closed toe, open toe, woven from that cord Scouts like to use, with socks or without socks. They’re all ugly.

If that’s the case, who needs anyone to be talking about pale, freckled Celtic skin in such a derogatory way.

Please tell me you (and others commenting on the dress, denim jacket and trainers) aren't admirers of the dreadful woman on TikTok who has decided she is a fashion expert and endlessly criticises and diminishes women for wearing this combination!

I think some people look good in some outfits, others in different things but, within reason, live and let live

I popped to the chip shop yesterday and a girl served us, then walked out from behind the counter with a teeny tiny pair of gym shorts, that showed the bottom of her bum cheeks.

I try not to judge and I am usually a wear what you like type of person, but I felt it was inappropriate for food preparation, regardless of how hot it is.

I think about where the loo seat touches when you sit down. It isn’t high up on your bum, it’s the top of the legs/lower bottom, exactly the area these shorts expose. So, wear what you like proudly, except if you’re working with food, and then for goodness sake wear something clean and hygienic. Put me off my food.

Thong bikini under a lace see through skirt for breakfast in my hotel this morning. I don’t need to see your whole arse (it was basically dental floss) while I’m eating my eggs. Round the pool I’m all for body positivity where what the hell you want just not at 8.30 in a restaurant!

I don't especially like the look either. It's not the opinion - it's your previous wording of it.

Jeez… this must be the most f’ing depressing thread of the summer so far.

Grim to know that whatever a woman (or man) chooses to wear, there’ll be another woman judging her for it. Who needs the patriarchy, huh?

Oh fgs. I didn't look at the dictionary definition of the words. To me, skanky means to look low-rent, not to mean no morals or whatever it said.

People judge others' clothes all the time. If someone wears something that looks low-rent and cheap, I'm not going to say how tasteful it looks.

I think thong bottoms should be banned unless at a nudist beach. They show the whole arse. It's completely inappropriate for children, and I wouldn't want other women parading their naked bottoms in front of my partner, either. The only naked bottom he should be seeing is mine!

There was a far worse one last night, which thankfully has been pulled. It was never going to go well, but this one was absolutely extra. I'm hoping it was the heat getting to people.

For women - fat women in crop tops.

For men - men with no tops on.

And I suppose you have a perfect figure yourself?

Women do not have to shroud themselves in yashmaks if their body shape and size do not happen to conform to other people's ideas of what they should be 'allowed' to wear.

Where l come from food it prepared with your hands, not your bum.

You do realise this is just a thread on mumsnet. I’m not actually allowed to ban these things, so fat women can still wear crop tops and men can still not wear a top at all. I don’t rule……unfortunately. 😅

Oooh, well aren’t you fancy? 😂

Sitting in a crowded (but thankfully air conditioned) A&E one summer with a hand injury is the only reason behind why I dislike flip flops, mules and anything that doesn't attach to the feet more fully - waiting for 5 hours behind 27 other people of different ages, physicality and dress, all with ankle and toe injuries where they were clearly in a hell of a lot of pain and their feet gradually going shades of purple and black made me realise just how dangerous the things could be.

Couldn’t agree more. My dad dislocated his shoulder in a fall caused by mule-type slippers that provided no support whatsoever. He never wore them again after that.
