Cold shoulder tops

They look better if you call them "Bardot" tops! I guess they've come back due to the obsession with 70's fashion trends.
I don't mind the shoulders showing, it's when you can see the armpits.

I think the idea is that you can show off your tattoos.

I like neither - but then each to her own! Or his - maybe men will start wearing them. I might have to confine myself to my home! grin

I quite like them my daughters and granddaughters wear them occasionally, I don't think I would.

Time for a wardrobe rethink for me, I reckon.

They are certainly not suitable for "mature ladies".
Perhaps under 20s might wear them.

I'm frightened to say it, but I quite like them. My shoulders are about the only part of my body that look ok, I think.

Does anybody like these?
I can see how the designers hit on the notion of a new "zone" in their latest styles but I see very very few women who look look nice in them. Few of us have the broad toned shoulders of Michelle Obama and (to me at any rate) these tips or dresses <whisper> tarty.
Having percolated down to Market Stall fashions , they just look cheap to me. Styled with a "nice" pair of ripped jeans or "pleather"(plastic) trousers and flip flops they are a look best consigned to history.
I also think unlike asymmetric hems, they are already looking dated - "last year" this year!!
End of fashion RANT! grin
