  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

I think we found Baby Jane . . .

Who wears shoes like that with a pink frock?
I'm chagrinned to say, that has become "a thing."

Yesterday, I had lunch at a favorite local Chinese restaurant, and it was busy, as it was Mother's Day here in the US.

Lots of families dining out. One young woman passed by wearing a dress not far from the fashion shown in that pic, and she had on some big, ugly set of running shoes and thick socks. I immediately thought of this thread and how much I would like to take a pic as evidence.

Why bother wearing a dress if you're going to wear sports shoes? Unless it's a tennis dress, it's wholly a mismatch.

And I STILL hate tennis shoes and such worn with men's suits. It looks so faux edgy. Suits are dress attire, with some formality, even if casual. Athletic shoes are never dress attire, even if they cost $10,000. Cost doesn't drive the category, only the fawning.
 
I am not qualified to judge "Fashion Fails".

Because I prefer tracky-dacks, footy shorts and thongs.

Fashion is by its nature ephemeral, unfunctional, faddish and very silly.

On that basis, I'm more than willing to give the Elizabethans, the Jacobeans, the Purtitans, and the Victorians a broad pass from opining as to their fashions.

But, today's fashions either do or don't make sense in today's world, by today's standards.

When dressed for comfort, in knockabouts, I accept that almost anything goes, short of wearing pajamas to the market.

But, when dressed for social gatherings, for an audience, for formality or cause, then a different standard applies and one is more or less asking to be judged for having dressed for the occasion.

In the case of your Ms. Russo, she noted her fashion and commented on it, making it a valid topic of conversation, apparently a welcomed one to her.
 
There are some sights on the red carpet at the Oscars. It's as if they go out of their way to look as ridiculous as possible.

Tell me again. Why is the statue of David 'pornography'?
 
The trend of women wearing running shoes or tennis shoes with serious clothes began in New York City in the late 1980s: women in office jobs wore those shoes with their office clothes for their commute on the subway or bus and switched to pumps or something similar when they got to the office. So you saw the business clothes-athletic shoes combo on the sidewalks all over lower and midtown Manhattan.

But it didn't take long after that for women to start deciding not to change their shoes at the office unless clients were coming or something like that. This was normalized for a while as a practical choice, but eventually (after a bit under a decade, I think), it faded away following several years of derision. (I suspect it was also a matter of tougher and/or more comfortable shoes coming onto the market, but I don't really know.)

With this particular woman being a TV personality, it's a slightly different matter: I gather it's been common for quite some time for TV figures, especially news figures, to wear more comfortable and casual shoes when they know their feet will never be seen on camera.

But why this ninny, besides being proud of a baby doll dress on television news, proudly posted her shoes along with the dress, I don't get. Maybe she just wasn't paying attention.
 
Our society is getting more casual. And I love it.

Remember those old black and white pictures from like the 20s where every man was wearing a suit! Nowadays, I see a lot of people wearing pjs at the grocery store.

Wear anything or nothing at all in public is what I want us to eventually get to.

Except this isn't about the man-on-the-street attire. It's about a job representing a TV studio, and presenting the news, including the weather. It's not now, nor ever, appropriate to just slob in with sweat suits on, or a frock for the senior prom.

There are exceptions when someone deliberately wears a costume for some celebration or a theme, but not for everyday work attire.

Even in casual settings, not everything is appropriate, just as not all behavior is appropriate for public behavior. Nudity, lewdness, absurdity, irreverence, provocation, and rude clothing/attire are all unacceptable in some settings, even if casual attire is. That's simply the price of living in a community, in society. The desires and whims of the self are not supreme, and do not trump all others' standards or rules.

At some point, you deliberately thumb your nose at society and society turns you into an outcast. That applies whether you are a Bible thumper in a gay night club, or a white supremacist in an inclusive university or a vegan at a rodeo.

The outfit was Houston-appropriate.

So, you have the Houston style-book for 2023, do you? I never got my copy.

Her dress was a distraction to her on-air appearance. It made her look like she either didn't have a wardrobe, or had no style.
 
LeBron Raymone James Jr. uses clothing to advertise his faith and remind us that Jesus Christ sacrificed his corporeal presence on the cross to absolve all of us from our sins.


 
You mean like Yeezy's newly minted anti-semite christo-fascist-cult line that all his 'White Lives Matter' crowd will be wearing to his 2024 presidential rallies?

^^ Well at least the cross is in the right place.

Tell me you're not a fashion designer without saying you're not a fashion designer.
