Culottes !

Do you wear these ? If so, why's that ........

I seem to have an aversion to them, I zoom in on what I think is a lovely skirt only to find its culottes
I spring back in horror - can't explain it ............

Re: Culottes !

Have done a couple of times, when the uniform has been trousers, I have managed to get away with culottes which look more skirt like than trouser like. Sneaky way to wear what I like rather than the uniform

Re: Culottes !

I tend to agree with Patsy - great idea and should be a great look ... but never on me!

I think you need chunky legs otherwise yer legs look like pipe cleaners dangling from the wide openings on those legs

I think I may have solved me own question as to why they repel me - I haven't the legs for them
Still don't see the point of them unless you're on a bike

I agree, they're always wafting round when skinny minnies wear 'em! I really don't think they suit many folks.

Wafting around and flapping about - that's it !

Re: Culottes !

I used to in my younger days, they just look like a shirt, but in fact they are just long shorts.

Re: Culottes !

Not for me, too much like trousers which I don't like .
They can look lovely on the right person
