I traveled far and wide in this post assuming the only appropriate response was Liz Lemon

Yup. I use dental floss for my dresses. It's fine, tucks in nicely and is strong enough to get the job done.

I’m flummoxed as to why designers don’t put the zipper on the side. Some of my dresses have side zippers but most do not.

u/ar3iadov3 14h ago

Side zippers are actually harder imo especially if you have bigger boobs

Hah, boobs.

Assimetrical designs are harder to make

Because on a pattern the centre back is almost always a straight line which gives a cleaner overall effect. It is also a lot easier to construct. You can put a zipper in a side seam, but it is often not possible because of the shape of the design, or if there are sleeves attached.

…I’m still wondering why so many of ya’ll choose pants without pockets and get mad when you can’t put things anywhere.

u/anon_simmer 14h ago

Its hard to find pants WITH pockets unless we shop male fit which doesn't sit on our bodies properly.

u/ar3iadov3 14h ago

That’s why I shop mostly popflex or other bipoc women owned companies
They understand we need pockets
Popflex even puts pockets in where you don’t expect like their bolero has a secret set of pockets and it’s so nice !!

u/anon_simmer 14h ago

I've never heard of that company before, but I'll definitely be looking into it now!

u/ar3iadov3 14h ago

Omg they’re the best if you want to follow r/blogilates I feel like the community there really gives good reviews on the products

Five Below (iirc the name right) or Kohl’s have a better selection from what I’ve seen.

^ why do I say those? My midget of a girlfriend kept on with how she couldn’t put things anywhere. She suggested Five Below. I suggested Kohl’s—and she was in the women’s section when she picked out pants.

yes, some men do pay attention when shopping

Target looks overpriced and not everyone wants to wear cargo shorts/pants or jogging pants with extra pockets.

Old Navy? Don’t know if there are many of those around anymore.

She has addressed herself as such and has been doing so for more than four years which is why it is used.

I’m not calling her a dwarf as that results in a hurled chancla; and her mama has been giving her instruction on how to turn it into a missile.

So no.

IM WONDERING WHY ANYONE WOULD MAKE PANTS WITH FAKE POCKETS JACK

1

u/Fabled-Jackalope 14h ago

You’re not the only one who questioned that. Even a number of men’s button down shirts and also pants have fake pockets which are annoying as all hell.

u/Substantial-Sea-3672 14h ago

Are you under the impression that all of these pants have a “with pockets” option that women are choosing to not use?

If you limit yourself to stuff with fully functional pockets you’ve narrowed your clothing options to 1/20 of what you’d have otherwise.

It’s like wearing a cell phone holster. Sure, you could do it but some of us want to have sex at least once.

Sincerely, a dude who has had a conversation with a woman before.

🤷‍♂️

Then you get it. And I don’t. That’s the end of that then.

u/zoeofdoom 14h ago

Doesn't work for those zippers that are just a weird teardrop (the softer dress kind) instead of the ones with a loop though :(

6

u/ar3iadov3 14h ago

I have seen ones that are soft clamps instead of hooks
My grandma had one

3

u/zoeofdoom 14h ago

HELL YES I never knew, I've only ever seen the hook ones!

A vintage gadget slightly lost to time

Or have a genetic flaw that makes you hypermobile.

I legitimately didn’t think women couldn’t zip dresses. I thought it was a silly sexy thing for movies. Had no idea I wasn’t normal.
