To continue the discussion.

I thought the comparison with the Duke snd Duchess of Windsor (last post on the previous thread) was interesting.

A visit to a dodgy regime, (Nazi Germany) because they would call Wallis HRH and make it a quasi-royal tour.

Of course, at that point Nazi Germany had a dodgy human rights record, but it was before the horrors of the Holocaust.

Let's face it, with the security and human rights issues there is no way the IG could happen in Nigeria. So that is sn excuse.

The students didn’t look too impressed to me. I would hate to be looked at like this…..it’s a look of disdain.

I think so.

I think they are probably educated enough to know 43% when they see it.

And not just 43% of a dress…

Looks like a last minute panic ASOS clearance buy 😂

In one picture she looks like she's in the nude!
Awful, tasteless.

Pollipops1 · 10/05/2024 19:59

Lots of students look excited to me but I work in education & you can never win them all! 😁

That dress is not appropriate for meeting children.

Down wiv the kids does not mean the back of your dress.

Good grief. Does no one advise her? At all?

Not a high school bully (we don’t call them high schools here) - merely an observer who is tired of beautiful women feeling the need to destroy their beautiful faces with unnecessary procedures.

They all look like muppets to me. And when they give themselves heavy eyebrows thinking it makes them look youthful when it overshadows their delicate features.

That doesn’t make them look youthful.

It makes them look like Bert.

And we don’t ’chew gum’ here either.

But you’ve gone with ‘bully’ so I call ‘drink’.

And an eyeroll emoji too. DRINK 🍸

What do you mean by “WE” don’t call them high schools over here.

I am British. I attended ABCD High School. There were numerous “High Schools”in my city.

I chewed gum. Wriggleys, Orbit, Hubba Bubba ….or am I imagining my childhood? 🙄

This board is WEIRD.

Pollipops1 · 10/05/2024 20:03

@MummyJ12 Oh that Bert! 😁 That’s quite an old reference tbf!

aparagonofvirtueanddecorummyarse · 10/05/2024 20:03

We in my area. Because we don’t.

And we don’t call it gum.

We are not all the same you know.

Pollipops1 · 10/05/2024 20:04

Clutches pearls!

Why would you clutch pearls? You could snap them.

Pollipops1 · 10/05/2024 20:05

@RisingSunn my school had high school in the name!

what else do you do with gum apart from chew it?

aparagonofvirtueanddecorummyarse · 10/05/2024 20:06

It isn’t about clutching pearls.

Just dressing appropriately.

However folk try to spin it, it just isn’t what most people would wear to meet children.

Aside from the fact that the style is not appropriate for meeting children, it’s not the most practical dress either. It looks like a trip hazard at the very least

I don’t think it’s tasteless, dreadful or inappropriate.

Backless is also quite unusual for daywear, isn't it?
Although some people on here no doubt would claim it's what they wear to work 🙄

That's the front. We're talking about the rear view.
