Designer clothes

Whaddya mean! I do dress like a Goddess - just nobody else seems to realise

I can’t understand why anyone would want to dress like a goddess, if by that you mean 50s film star, in everyday life. I say that sitting here in my Lands End jersey trousers and top. If I were to venture out to the shops I’d swap the trousers for jeans.

I'm with sandelf!

Sue450 people of our vintage are beyond fashion and have no need of designer labels. Our inner beauty shines out, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

You're posh!
I'm wearing a Tulchan jumper that must be 15 years old and it just won't wear out.
Actually, it's far better than some of the rubbish sold lately.

Dress like a goddess
I have got on some Nike trainers - she's a goddess isn't she!

I didn’t tell you how old said trousers and top are did I? But as I understand LE now have clothes made in China I won’t be replacing them.

I’m wearing several layers, tights, trousers, thermal vest, cashmere jumper and cardigan. I’ve been to a funeral , somehow it seemed extra cold.
Goddess? Does that mean 1930’s floaty silk neglige or those long frocks worn by Scarlet O’hara before her life changed? You need servants to wear impractical stuff like that. And it’s too cold

Yes, they are.
As are Woolovers rubbish.

Yes, Woolovers went right down in terms of quality - I just bin the catalogue when it (all too frequently) arrives.

It’s very tricky avoiding clothing made in China GSD. If you (are able to)check the supply chain of many high street names many use some Chinese manufacturers. Seasalt for example.

I didn’t realise Woolovers had succumbed! Explains a lot. I decided some time ago to cut right down on buying clothes as I have more than enough and, over the last couple of years, nowhere to go!

I dress for comfort nowadays and for items I like rather than what others tell me I should like!

I had keyhole surgery on Tuesday so I am still wearing my nightdress. I might put my dressing gown on a bit later.

I am a Godess. I wear whatever I want to.

Sad to report that even Seasalt are now getting some things made in China. They do state the country of origin in the garment descriptions so you can avoid those.

I have been known to return a mail order item on finding China on the label. I rarely buy clothes now but I refuse to support China.

Sorry Farzanah didn’t realise you’d already mentioned them.

The film star I generally modelled myself on was Katherine Hepburn. Trousers and shirts! Currently wearing black jeans from Sainsbury and an M&S jumper made in Bangladesh.

I dress like a goddess who is cold and cleaning the toilet.

I'm a goddess in jeans and a New Look top.

There's a reason goddesses lived in warm countries... I suppose I might pass as a Green Goddess at the moment

What does a goddess dress like? I imagine flimsy sparkles that skim over the skin like a kiss
That s me
???

Same, Germanshepherdsmum. It’s also my excuse for still, post-retirement, spending a lot of money on Margaret Howell, who I’m glad to say has a shirt factory in London.

Suppose it depends on which goddess you are going for! Athena helmet hat, military style coat and knee length boots, Diana, Barbour jacket or gilet, trilby, cord trousers, walking boots and shotgun (optional) or perhaps other religions- Kali, leather outfit with studs, high heeled boots, tattoos and piercings (whip optional)!
Any others?

Barbour?
Is there a goddess called Barbour?

I thought I knew my gods and goddesses but perhaps not!

Kali, leather outfit with studs, high heeled boots, tattoos and piercings (whip optional)!
We'd better respect Kali's posts ?
