I think it's nice that people express themselves through the medium of what they choose to wear.


It helps avoid the twats, and frankly the world would be a vanilla place if everything was tasteful.


Apart from Crocs. Always always apart from Crocs. Burn the Crocs. A lot.

Crisp white shirts....with black bra showing through underneath. Horrible.


Culottes. They don't suit anyone.


Tartan trousers.


Gladiator sandals.


Ugg boots.


Crocs on adults.


'Christmas' jumpers.


Sequinned jackets and trousers/accessories.


Leather trousers.


Hunter wellies worn in the city. (Pleased for Hunter's sales figures and its given me many a laugh so shouldn't really complain).


Although of course, it doesn't really matter what you wear, you've either got it or you haven't. Best to be yourself.

Guilty - although not Hunters (very 2009 darling - all about the Chameau this year). But in mitigating circumstances the weather was rather inclement.

Ok let me add to that list:

String vests on anyone.

Bolero jackets on large busted women.

Fleeces. No matter how 'high-tec' or expensive they are, you still look scruffy.

Dungarees.


What type of fashion was going on back in '97? Probably boot cut jeans, ankle boots and puffa jackets. I shall add those to my list (with the possible inclusion of 'Chameau (2011) worn by men. In the city. Whatever the weather' too).

Fair enough, perhaps I'm being unnecessarily harsh but the blokes I have seen wearing them tend to look like they are trying too hard to be on trend so its put me off. Maybe they had low slung skinny jeans as well...


Never heard of Chameau, I thought Hunter's revival was earlier than that actually. I predict Barbour wellies for next year's must have rubber wear btw.

Fashion can be art and it can be theatre. Personally, I can get as much of a kick out of standing outside a shop looking at a stunning gown in the window as I can from wandering around any museum or gallery. I don't need to own it or to wear it (although that would be nice) to appreciate it's fabulousness.


I also enjoy watching how young people put together their outfits. Since the beginning of time teenagers have looked for ways to express themselves (music, clothes etc) and I'm uplifted when I see a teenager looking uniquely and creatively put together - especially as it is usually done on a budget of sweet FA.

Oh, and I don't mind Lady Ga Ga. Sure, she's copying those who have gone before, but so what? I would hate to think that her predecessors had slammed the door shut after them. If she took herself seriously she would be unbearable, but she doesn't, she's having FUN.

    • It took the Tories 14 years to dig that 20bn blackhole. It's taken Labour 14 months to double it.  You cant get rid of Reeves though because the next person will actually be totally incompetent. There are no MPs in Labour capable of performing better than the current shower.
    • Thanks P. That sounds like a bargain compared to other horror stories I've heard! 
    • DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?
    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?
