This is now Kim & CoKipling TSV 01/03/24
Very!!!Frumpy!
I agree and this is honestly the first time I've seen Jenny look awful in any of Kim's clothes. She can come out wearing the the most bizarre colour combinations and styles but she always gets away with it, not this time. I was trying to think of what she looked like and I don't think I can come up with better than what you've just said. I agree with what you said about Jill - I actually like the look of overlong trousers (though maybe not that overlong) I couldn't be doing with having my hems tripping me up or getting dragged through all the dirt in the street, they're not gonna look good for long. From what I could see so far, this collection is particularly frumpy and that's coming from somebody who loves a ***** bow on a blouse, but combined with those frumpy patterns and colours it doesn't work for me. They mentioned 1990's power dressing, that's never been my thing, but I don't remember it ever looking frumpy. Jenny was in raptures about this olive green shirt with button back sleeves (another look I can't stand) so out comes Natasha wearing it with a cream coloured crossbody handbag with completely distracted from the shirt so you couldn't really see what it was supposed to look like - Their stylists really haven't got a flaming clue have they?I don't like the trousers but Jill looks great in them with the matching jacket. Jenny looks like a giant tomato.

I guess there's worse lines to have around the crotch area! Both Jenny and Catherine are looking dangerously close hopefully it's just the seam down the middle. These trousers are very unforgiving - from what I've seen today, unless you're stick thin these trousers really accentuate the belly. This whole collection is a big fail from Kim - total frumpfest!The trousers didn't fit Natasha properly and I'm now watching Catherine in the red ones. Horrible. They are pulling across the crotch and grabbing the thighs on everyone and Kim always said she hated the "smile lines" across the crotch - yet here they are. Does Kim actually make the clothes any more?

I love it. I window shop on my laptop every night - spend about £500 a go (not in real life). I imagine what I'd buy if money were no object and then think "do I really want or need this carp?" (answer's no of course).Agree. But way back then, online shopping hadn't got off the ground, so buying clothes off the telly was a new concept - a change from catalogues if you didn't want to trawl the shops. So the fashion had to be different, well made and a decent price, unlike now where there is so much competition. Every day I get little fashion booklets come through the door, like Damart - I never buy, but who doesn't like browsing ?

The trousers looked fairly alright on the slimmer (mostly bumless) models, but on Jenny, with her large bum and belly, they looked awful. If she had gone up a size, they maybe would have looked passable, but some people's vanity won't allow them to budge from the size they believe they are. The bright green and bright red ones are, imo, unwearable. Probably in the 'colonies' as Brizzles calls them, they go down better with the ladies, but those colours don't travel well across the Atlantic. I know that I would feel foolish and badly dressed if I wore them out.I guess there's worse lines to have around the crotch area!
