Is it just me, but what did you think of the Lionesses’ coming home trousers and shorts ensembles? I imagine they were designed specially for the occasion, but I thought they were really unflattering and bland.

They look rather bland to me are they M&S or some other stores promotion line.

Could do better - a lot better

Apparently supplied be Nike

No the outfits worn at 10 Downing St yesterday were supplied from M & S and all availed in store.

In which case AI got it wrong, seemed strange to me

Honestly? Those amazing girls just made us all feel so proud, and all someone can do is critisise their outfit! Unbelievable!

David49 Nike supply the Lionesses’s football kit, training kit and all sports wear.

I totally agree with you 👍

I think I"m keeping Nike in business the amount of kit I buy DGCs.

Added to that, DGS1 plays for a European team academy, their kit is made by Adidas. I"m hoping he'll pay me back one day with an apartment in Italy.

Yes, ignore the achievement and criticise the clothes. I thought women had got over judging women by how they look but, alas, I have burned my bra in vain.

Maybe if the OP had been put under the heading Style and Beauty, then the thread might have kept on the ball better?
Though discussions do wander.

All the clothes are on M&S website together with a list of stores that have the stock. There’s also a few pics of the girls modelling them. Basically, buy into the lioness phenomenon by purchasing the M&S clothes which seem relatively affordable.

It was a shame they had to wear chain store outfits as they deserve something better.

What do the Lions coming home outfits look like?

The Lions are a rugby team made up of players from England, Wales, Scotland and N Ireland, known as The `British and `Irish Lions.

They are currently on tour in Australia, we will have to wait to see what they wear in their return.

I imagine it difficult to design outfits to be worn by every member in the team, different heights, shapes and preferences. I think they looked just fine.

Anyway the Lionesses are athletes, used to 'kit', they aren't models/coat hangers to please critics.

Personally I didn't really notice, all I saw was joy and happiness in their faces, and their pride and fondness for each other and their gratitude shining out. They deserve our respect not bitching about appearances.

Well I like Angela Raynor and think it s cheap to keep digging about her clothes if you don’t like her just leave her alone she looks fine As do the team …why do women criticise other women so much

escaped Tue 29-Jul-25 17:16:47

Well I rather like Angela Rayn e r too.
But the thread is about style and trouser ensembles. AR just happened to be there and a comparison of the outfit was made. Nothing wrong with her, more the fabric and the style. The colour was good.

Would it have been commented on it they had been men🙄

Tenko Tue 29-Jul-25 17:40:54

I haven’t given their outfits a thought until I read it on here . What I noticed was the joy and happiness on their faces . I liked the outfits and what’s wrong with them being dressed by m & s ?
I’ve also got arm envy for their sculpted arms.

Only by women!

BlueBelle Tue 29-Jul-25 17:57:14

Guess I m still seething about the last thread that called AR every name under the sun because of her clothes Escaped

Well said Claremont. I went down to The Mall to see them go by, and none of the crowds there could have cared less about their outfits.

TillyTrotter Tue 29-Jul-25 18:18:40

I don’t care what they are wearing - it is a PR exercise after all,
but the focus should be on their achievement for our Country 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I liked the outfits.
You can shop the collection at M & S.

I like the one with the "diagonal placket" and big buttons.
