A Clearance Item

Discussion of fashion elements and looks that are traditionally considered somewhat "femme" but are presented in a masculine context. This is NOT about transvestism or crossdressing.

A Clearance Item

Post by Uncle Al »

Was grocery shopping at Walmart and passed through the clothing section. Saw this on a rack, with no tags.
Checked with a clerk stocking jeans. She found the UPC code on a manufacturers tag, looked it up for me.
It was on clearance for $11.00 which I thought was great. I normally wear a 2X/2XL and this was an XL.
I thought it might be tight but it fits really well. Since temperatures are creeping back up, the coolness
it provides is great :D

I bought the last one. It is now out-of-stock :(

Re: A Clearance Item - Found More

Update: I did a search for dresses on Walmart.com and had over 3,000+ results.
Narrowed down the search to size, and brands that I KNOW will fit.

Found this :arrow:
Time and True Midi Knit Dress 2025-11-20.jpg
Time and Tru Women's Midi Knit Dress

So, being under $6.00 each, I purchased 2 of each color :D

They fit like a very long T-Shirt/Undershirt. Lighter weight than cotton but VERY soft.
Day or Night(sleep) wear, at 6' 2", this hits about mid-calf or 4+ inches below my knees. :D
Just wish they had side-seam pockets :(

SO - Check your favorite retailer and their clearance section.
You'll find bargains galore, to fit any budget. Some 'styles' may
be a little old, but, well worth adding to your "collection".

Remember - What's old is new again :!:

I like the blue. The neck line is fine as well, as you say, similar to a standard T-shirt.
Daily, a happy man in a skirt...

The blue is a nice colour and doesn't look like it's designed to fit round women's curves. But the model is really off-putting! Is she an AI creation or a real woman altered in unsettling ways? Exactly identical in the two pictures. I always distrust vendors who do that. Makes me suspect that I'm not really looking at a photo of the garment.
Keep on skirting,

The version in blue is my favorite as well. I find it nice and bright.
I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman.

She is a real professional model :!:
She has modeled for other companies.
I chose her because she fits my body type.

Want a skinnier model :?:

Walmart.com offers you a choice in model when viewing clothing.
Every model pictured is a real, live person.
Again, I chose her because she fits my body type.
