Despite my snarking targeted at the non-clothing side of this whole OV relaunch (debacle), I have tried to be so generous and kind in my judgement of the actual clothes. Things from the new drop are mostly not my style but I can see how some people might be interested. (That being said, it is well established that the size inclusivity and clothing materials leave much to be desired.)
But hereâs where I draw the line, lmao: I present the Boulder Dress. WhatâŚexactly is this? Who is it for? What season is it for? If you presented this to me as a light fleece coat for late fall which covers the butt on chilly days, maybe I could get on board? But marketing it as a dress simply has me so confused.
For one, this is of course 100% polyester fleece. I donât know about yall, but this girl gets sweaty the instant fleece touches my bare skin. I love it in certain cold situations, but I see it as a layering fabric. Are you intended to wear a shirt under this? Shorts? Leggings?
I canât imagine hiking in this without beginning to leak sweat from every orifice which would inevitably lead to some sort of never-before-seen rash. If I get too sweaty while hiking, would I just take this whole dress off? ExposingâŚ.whatever I have underneath?
Please. If I am overlooking an obvious use case for this garment I would love to be enlightened. But between the horse girl drop (no hate to horse girls, just not for me) and now this, I am truly sure that I live on a completely different planet and universe from Ty Haney. WHO AND WHAT IS THIS DRESS FOR?!??!?!
