Exactly Margaret ... the Press always have a go at us women trying to come up to standard in dress, apart from Boris ... nobody bothers about the men !!
Equality not quite here yet.
Problem is, it is other women/press that knock badly dressed contemporaries. Image is a big factor unfortunately. Yes, Bessie Braddock was much loved, however, bet even she spent lots of money on her clothes, even though she always looked like 'a sack tied in the middle'.
Garinda: You have obviously have never been in the 'real world' of business, whereby women still struggle for a position here. Would have thought you would have had a little more empathy for this, having designed clothing for the high profile celebrities. First impressions always count.
