Menace to society shirt

Product Description

Because spring Menace to society shirt never does arrive, fully formed, on the first day of spring, or the day the clocks go forward, or the spring bank holiday, or at Easter. We get a few days of nice weather and we all go around saying: “Wow, it’s spring – isn’t it lovely?”, and then suddenly it’s back to midwinter. And this keeps happening all the way through April. So at a certain point you have to stop obsessing over the long-range forecast and make a call. Cast your vote for spring. That’s what the floral dress is, really. Like a flag or a football shirt, it is about believing in a dream of the season to come. So Miranda might think us basic, but we are expressing our connection with the natural world through the medium of a midi dress, which is quite different, thank you very much. The best floral dresses are ones that are not wishy-washy. Nobody’s Child is a good place to look, starting with their Pastel Floral Nova Smock Midi Dress (£89). A dark background – have a look at Kitri’s Bridget Black Vine Leaf Print Shirred Maxi Dress (£190) – adds instant sophistication. Large-scale flowers add instant boldness, but a small, precise bud can look chic. I love Albaray’s Sprig Floral Sun Dress (£99) with a custom print based on meadow flowers, each bud suspended on a pristine white backdrop as if caught in a flower press.

I start with the Menace to society shirt Shein BAE Glitter Sheer Mesh Top Without Bra. The shirt looks like the pictures: long-sleeved and made of stretchy black mesh, with glittery flecks embedded in the fabric. I’ve bought a size large, and it’s too big: the shoulder seams droop sadly off my collarbones. The elastic seams are puckered. It’s less itchy than anticipated, and the fabric is slinky and cold against my skin. I feel like a different version of myself, like the kind of girl who captions her Instagram posts with the sparkle emoji. I imagine wearing my new Shein BAE Glitter Sheer Mesh Top with a bra and black jeans, drinking with friends. I imagine looking across the room and seeing a girl dressed nearly exactly like me, but she’s wearing the Shein BAE Lettuce Edge Glitter Mesh Top Without Bra, instead. My other new Shein garment is both uglier and more distinctive. It’s the Shein Unity Tie Shoulder Split Thigh Cami in lime green. The garment inside the ziplock bag is crumpled around a small square of tissue paper, which serves no discernible purpose. I’m surprised to see that neither the dress nor the shirt has any paper price tags attached: there’s nothing to indicate that the clothes are brand new beyond their intense chemical smells. I ordered this dress in a medium, and it barely pulls over my hips. The fabric is a medium-thick stretch knit similar to a heavy T-shirt. Thin, wavy folds have been stitched into the material, creating a ruched effect. The texture is unusual, but almost a nice detail. (My friend takes one look at the dress and describes it as having both the look and feel of a ribbed condom.)
