Peacock have released a £1.99 dress (online only)

These women get all the Luck


[At the bottom of a plastic bag lies a very small piece of highly flammable fabric in a colour never
dreamed of by Mother Nature. This is budget clothing chain Peacocks’ latest offering: a £1.99 dress.
Yes, that’s right, £1.99. Forty-one pence less than a cappuccino from my nearest coffee shop.
I’ve bought it online to see just how cheap and cheerful fashion has become.]

Whoever would pay that much for a dress deserves to be seen in that

What a snotty write up from the mail, all clothing containing nylon is flammable and the colour is nice, it's an ok dress to be fair ... It's £1.99 fgs.

armand.kay 15-04-2014 11:05 AM

That's Christmas sorted.

Vanessa 15-04-2014 11:11 AM

I don't wear dresses anyway.

MTVN 15-04-2014 11:17 AM

Actually looks alright to me, certainly wouldnt be able to guess it only cost a couple of quid

Josy 15-04-2014 11:18 AM

Well no one will buy it now anyway since everyone will know it cost £1.99 from Peacocks.

reece(: 15-04-2014 11:19 AM

When will Oxfam?

Josy 15-04-2014 11:20 AM

Actually the normal price for the dress is £18 it's just a promotion.

Yea I agree Kizzy it really does come across as very snotty...

My one previous visit to a Peacocks store was not a success. I went into their Dorchester branch on a wash-out English holiday to buy a pair of Wellington boots for my son, only to find them all covered with pirates, robots or Angry Birds.

Better wet feet than those monstrosities, I thought

Yes may as well let your kid get wet feet and catch a cold than him be 'out of fashion' and embarrass you eh.

Ninastar 15-04-2014 11:25 AM

it's a £2 dress ffs...

people complain things are too expensive all the time and now people are saying they wouldn't dare wear a £2 dress... you can never win!

I'd wear it. I'd rather have 50 nice dresses for £100, than spend £100 and buy two things from topshop/river island ETC

I know silly moo, loss leaders attract customers, if you're having to compete with the likes of primark in the throwaway fashion stakes for pretty young things what else can you do?...

If the wellies are serviceable then what's her problem? Saw loads of name snobs in the lakes haha! my fleece and raincoat cost £14 from primark and I was as warm and dry as anyone.
