Right? The hysteria is infecting even the fashion forum.

I’m talk and long dresses look amazing on me. I’m dreading when they go out of style.

Can someone post some photos, please? I'm not sure what you all are talking about.

Like the tuckernuck style dresses? I like them. I don't really wear the prairie style dresses to work though, I usually stick to shifts and sheaths.

I want sleeves, dammit.

Blouses instead of shells.

Dresses with sleeves.

Everything with armholes cut so you can wear a bra.

on the one hand, I agree, and am irritated that Trump era seems to have ushered in this era of woman needing to breed (and I have a large family).

On the other, I feel like - why can't women be professional and also feminine? These shouldn't be oxymorons. The 1980s when looking professional meant women dressed up like men should be over.

I love dressing like that. I'm wealthy and educated, and above all, I don't have weird American hang-ups about what constitutes femininity in 2025.

Before it was a style in the US, I had to spend hours online looking for stuff sold in Japan. Or go to Japan (and see my cousins).

You don't need to wear only what you find in stores. Some decades will be harder than others to find what YOU like to wear, but a little persistence pays off!

I think designers are expecting most women to stop working in the next 2 years and acting accordingly.

Eh, they work for my lifestyle. I love them.

There are plenty of stores with office clothes if that's your thing.

A person can conduct work while wearing them… and do.

Have clothing designers just decided that women are leaving white collar professions so why bother dressing like you have a plan for the day besides stopping at WF for a matcha latte and bouquet of wildflowers?
