Clear heels, cut-outs and low-rise.
“Dear fashion. Stop making dresses with cut-outs. Grown women do not want that sh*t. Thanks.”Â
That’s what Mia Freedman wrote via Instagram, and it resonated with hundreds of women feeling exactly the same —tired of not being represented by fashion labels, or having their needs considered by clothing manufacturers.
Seriously, why is it so hard to find a dress with adjustable straps?
So whether it’s serious matters like the complete inconsistency of sizing, to the fact that so many pants these days have FAKE POCKETS (why???), Mamamia spoke with 25 women about the things they want fashion to ever so kindly stop doing. Immediately.
25 things women want to see less of in fashion.
“Turning a gorgeous dress around to see it’s backless. So frustrating.”
“A store ordering 1000 garments that are a size four and six, but only one or two size 12,14,16. That’s despite the fact these sizes represent the most common body type and size in Australian women.”
“Just like Mia Freedman, I can’t stand under-boob cutouts on tops, dresses, etc… my boobs never fit in them and I’m always afraid of a slip.”
“Being tall and NOTHING fits length-wise. Whether it be shirts, pants, shorts, swimwear and especially dresses. And when you get the bigger size, it just gets wider with no length added. Plus, every damn thing is cropped at the moment, and for us long torso gals it’s more like a shrug.”
“I fall in love with the fabric, colour, length and then try the complicated maths of how to wear it without my bra being completely visible. Cue heartbreak.”
“If and when plus size clothing is available in-store, it’s always another section, at the back of the store, one or two racks.”
“Knee-high boots are always so small! My thick calves never fit.”
