In true Questioning Fashion style, Ali and Jo grapple between the joy of cheap and cheerful group dress-ups and the mountains of dumped plastic spangles left in their wake.
When Ali finally got her Eras tour ticket, a year after Jo overdressed for Harry Styles, it struck them both that while it isn’t a new phenomena (remember the Bay City Rollers’ tartan kick flares? Yeah, neither do we) — it has stepped up a notch thanks to online communities of mainstream stars...
Which we agree is wonderful as a concept.
But it's also a little frightening, given the sheer number of Shein sequin minis Ali spotted at one concert.
The ultra fast fashion giant is known to add between 2000 and 10,000 new styles to its website EVERY DAY.
Don’t even get Jo started on the soggy feather boa aftermath of Harry Styles’s tour. It looked like there’d been a massacre of camp cockerels.
The conversational magical mystery tour somehow landed on how the government should fund crafty mums to help everyone else with homemade book week costumes so we don’t buy so many disposable dress-ups.
hmmm
As always, they’d love to hear your thoughts on the matter. And as always, they do not judge you either way!
