M&S sale...guess what I found! ?

I hope you bought a job lot for us Mamissimo! How much was it reduced to? 50p?

How much Mamissimo?

We could recognise each other if we go to a meet-up - all dressed in what someone called 'Germolene Pink'

It's still £65 in the link

'Model is 5'9" and a size 8
I think that anyone of 5'5" or under and any larger than a size 8/10 could look like a walking blancmange.

A total steal at £32.50! Would you like one put by when they’re down to 50p?

50p - yes please, it could go in the rag bag to make quilts!

It was in my personal sale preview - will we all get that because of our previous fascination with it?

This one is advertised as being for "the fuller bust". Don't you just love the busy pattern, full sleeves and, if that isn't enough to draw the eye to "the fuller bust", stick a patch pocket on 'em!

I bet they won't have a size 18 - and I will be so disappointed (NOT).
Actually I can't believe how awful it is - what was the buyer thinking??

By coincidence I had an order from M&S delivered this morning.
Among other things was a new bra, now I must have had a fat finger or a mad moment but I ordered a size 38 D cup.
I was going to return it but having seen the tartan dress ,I have decided to keep it and grow into it just so I can order the dress as well.
Thank You so much.?

That dress will be £1.99 by the end of July ( and I still wouldn't buy it) among their many fashion faux pas this year, that one has to be the worst.
Call the fashion police!

We shall look forward to seeing your newly endowed and upholstered figure annsixty. And when you're all encased in that tartan shocker, we won't be able to miss you, will we?

Ooh I don't know which one to get. I might have to pop in and buy them both as they are bound to be the height of fashion for a long time to come

That dress is perfect to cut up and make into directoire knickers!

The reviews about the pink thing ( well, some of them), amuse me. How fashionable it looks, what lovely cotton it is, etc, etc. Mmm, I think I must be just not with it!! ?

Both are hideous but I think that the pink thing takes first prize. I would not take either or both if they were handing them out for free. I am amazed that any have left the shelves.

Now that's the way to do it, ann!!

charley it's a bit like being offered a free copy of the Sun at the newsagent!
Could we perhaps have the pink as our summer uniform and switch to tartan in October for our winter gear?

I wouldn't buy them for 65 or 35 pence never mind pounds. When are M&S going to learn? Even if they sack all their buyers I'm not sure if they'd get it right. Nobody wears these dresses surely every sale there are racks of the same thing that nobody would buy. About the only thing I buy in there now is knickers and the odd toiletries .

Even their knickers fall apart at the seams. Tu knickers are ace!

When will those at the top of M & S wake up to the fact that are trying to sell absolute tat that no one in their right mind would ever wear.

Thank goodness that their food buying team are good, as when I am feeling allergic to my kitchen I can always find some tasty morse, to tempt me.

I could make ruched toilet roll covers if any one interested ?
The plaid dress would cover my dogs beanie bag nicely.

The 'germolene' pink dress looks like a refugee from the wardrobe of a maid of all work in Victorian household , just needs the mob cap to complete outfit.

What fun! I love both these dresses - they'll be great to wear for those relaxing days punting down the river or attending a royal garden party - not!! I despair of M&S - do their buyers not live in the real world where real women wear real clothes?!

That made me laugh Auntieflo and so true, what were they thinking
The tartan monstrosity is worse, nothing like a strategically placed pocket to emphasise the fuller bust.?
