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 with you on this. The husband of a friend of mine wears them with trainers and little trainer ankle socks, utterly repulsive.

Yuk. I hope she wipes her arse properly after going to the toilet. So unhygienic to parade around like that.

Boob tubes.
Hawaiian shirts.
Kim K wearing a massive fur stole the other week on the frow in boiling weather.

Sorry that's 3..

Yes, although not limited to summer the stringy lycra clad middle aged man is not what you want to be stuck driving behind on a narrow country road. They always look as though they must be physically uncomfortable somehow.

Once someone on here posted that she liked looking at them when stuck in traffic - very niche preference which I often remember when stuck unable to overtake and think nope, middle aged scrawny man wearing lycra who, judging by his decision to hold up traffic rather than use the cycle path, almost certainly has an indefensibly oversized sense of entitlement - still don't get it.

Way ahead of time, Prada et al took a while to catch up!

Sandals they are frumpy and don’t look good. Minus points for those dreadful walking ones. Even worse with unpainted toenails

I can overlook almost everything, including Crocs, hot pants, or topless people… but linen is just vile. Looks and feels horrible.

😂🤣

I'm 46 and have always hated feet. It's quite a common thing I thought 🤔

Anything artificial fabric in the heat. I can't understand how anyone can stand the feeling. Sweaty, smelly, creasy

Only natural fibres are breathable and sit well in the heat.

Men walking around with their tops off.
Women walking around in the street in a bikini and nothing else.Both of which I've seen today.

Botty clackers.

That bit of bum cheek that peeps out in tiny shorts/shorts several sizes smaller than your bum is.

I don't care what size you are, I don't want to see your botty clackers jiggling around in front of me and before someone says 'well don't look then' I use a wheelchair, my face is at arse-height, or thereabouts. In order to look where I am going, I have to look at the arse of the person in front or to the side of me quite often!

Bum cracks are also not nice. No bum cracks. Just please make sure the bum/crotch area of your clothing fits and covers, thats really not a big ask. I can avoid looking at everything else!

Too small denim shorts gradually disappearing into someone crotch.

Are other prints or solid colours ok? I love a stripe in summer.

This immediately made me think of The Kinks and Dedicated Follower of Fashion, which I love - actually I love everything by The Kinks:-

He thinks he is a flower to be looked at
And when he pulls his frilly nylon panties right up tight
He feels a dedicated follower of fashion.

Where do you live?! I see plenty of people in the park in bikinis when it’s hot, but not on the streets. Maybe tops occasionally but definitely not bikini pants.

Yup. No man who goes into a shop shirtless is ever anything but a common skank. They’re always hideously puny or have a beer belly too.

To be honest this is probably one of my last summers before my metabolism slows down so I’m getting out the batty riders and tank tops as much as possible sorry if this is an ick but while I still have it I’m getting it out don’t care if I’m someone’s mum 😭

Urgh god this in spades! I hate feet so much, I love summer and have happily spent the day in my own garden with no shoes on but the minute I leave the house my feet are fully covered - I wish everyone else would do the same, feet are ugly 😂
also I don’t mind tops off or bikini tops but again, in your own gardens please!

A British seaside town centre

Beige or nude “co-ords” especially the skin tight jersey shorts and crop top version. From a distance people look naked , which I guess is the point? But unless someone has a perfect figure they are very unforgiving.

Shirtless men. Hard agree. Especially sweaty running ones. Yes you might be cool, getting a tan and showing off but no that does not mean you can splatter other people with sweat.

Well I guess that makes a bit more sense. Giving the benefit of the doubt, maybe on their way to the beach?!

I still wear slipper socks in bed in the summer.

I was going to say these leggings - they’re genuinely awful.
