Not everyone is blindly following the latest fashion trend. Some people are focused on developing their own personal style, and want to invest in clothes that they genuinely love regardless of how popular they are.

But the industry still thinks it knows best and often prioritizes redundant items and designs while the truly needed ones remain limited and hard, if not impossible, to find.

So Reddit user Rachel_BA1 recently asked women to share what pieces of clothing they absolutely hate and why. Many agreed to share their thoughts and the comment section quickly proved that stores need to take a good look at their shelves.

    Women Are Sharing The Most Irritating Things About Their Clothing, Here Are 35 Of The Worst Sports apparel that turns pink in the women’s section. My alma mater’s colors are gold and black, why would I want a pink shirt?

    The assumption that I want anything to be pink simply because I’m female really gets to me. I feel like we are slowly moving beyond it, but for so long every sports team I’ve supported has been like, “oh, you’re a lady? You must want a pink baby doll tee with a too small logo dead center on your tits.”

    Plus size clothes that are just larger cuts of the exact same pattern for smaller clothes, so if a shirt is 1" wider then it's also somehow 1" longer. How many adults grow taller as they grow fatter? It completely changes the look of the item.

    Imagine if they took plus size clothes built for bigger bodies, bigger bellies and boobs and then just sized them down for smaller sizes. The fit would be ridiculous. I feel like fat people deserve to have well fitting clothes like smaller people do.

    To answer the question of their existence. Shoes with heels were first used by horse riding peoples because they provide a better stand in the stirrups. If you look at the whole history, they were a integral part of mens fashion before women adopted them. So ladies, if somebody points out your lack of heels, you can ask them if you look like you plan on going to war on horseback.

    Shoes for women are literally the worst. Almost universally, they're designed to look good rather than to support your body. And I think most people don't get how damaging that is because it's so normalized. Shoes are what go between you and the ground! That's what absorbs the shock of your bodyweight slamming into the ground over and over again every day!

    And, like, no one makes shoes for fat people. Women's shoes are so slim and dainty compared to men's shoes! Not just like, the length and the size, but men's shoes are clunkier and more sturdily built, I'm assuming to support a larger size of person slamming into them.

    But, like, what happens when you're just a fat chick and you've got 200 lbs slamming into those ballet flats over and over?

    Heel spurs. The answer is heel spurs.

As for icky material, how about ordering a designer name cotton jersey nightgown that smells like vomit, even after being washed repeatedly with highly scented detergent and scent crystals? Waste of money, as the smell is so foul and strong it makes me nauseous and I can’t sleep. Can’t even use them as rags, because they’d just be vomit-smelling rags.

    I once read that a woman who never wore a bra in her life will have nicer boobs than a woman who wore a bra all her life. Because boobs are made of muscles and the muscles work out as you walk and do whatever you do. If you put them in a bra the muscles never get a proper workout and they end up being these empty potato sacks. Lol. (I am aware that they also go flat due to the milk production during pregnancy but that's not the point I wish to make)

    Cuz not everybody is cold all the time? Personally, I'm always too warm. Also, it's a style. Some people like it, others don't. Variety exists for good reasons.

    Same with dresses with a waist. They always end up too high - like right under my boobs.

    Women Are Sharing The Most Irritating Things About Their Clothing, Here Are 35 Of The Worst Strapless dresses/ tops. I'm flat chested, so those never stay up. If I go too long without tugging them up all the damn time, my nipples come out to say hello. It pains me whenever I see an otherwise cute dress/ top that I can't wear because they're strapless.

    If the dress is worth the effort, it's actually very easy to add straps. If you can't sew, you can buy ready made straps (check wedding dress shops and suppliers).

    Petite clothing in general, dresses in specific.

    I am chubby and built like a crushed can- why the f*ck does all petite clothing assume you are thin? I am petite in height, not necessarily petite everywhere. Am I just having terrible luck? I have two choices usually- fit my chest and look like I am wearing a sack or fit my waist and not even try. I usually buy from the junior's section, but I feel too old to keep doing so.

    They don't make any effort at all. I have friends who are petite and those who are 'tall' They both have as much trouble getting clothing to actually fit..

    I had a pair. They were pink hightops and really pretty, and comfortable. I received a lot of compliments for them. I really liked them a lot. They looked good with a skirt.

    IDK who designs women's underwear, but I'm pretty sure they've never seen a woman. Why is there always 8cm of unnecessary fabric above the top of the butt crack? And why are my butt cheeks hanging out of the bottom, creating visible panty lines across the middle of each cheek? Also, I'm petite, and the crotch part is not wide enough even for me.

    The ripped torn denim. I tried to buy some denim shorts Went to several stores. All had tears and shreds. F*ck. Buying shorts with an inseam longer than 2 inches is impossible too often also.

    I hate spandex and polyester. I cannot stand the way it feels on my skin. Trying to buy womens clothing without either of those two things ugh. I put 100% cotton in my search and.....still too much poly and spandex everyf*ckingwhere. I just want a simple 100% cotton shirt/ hoodie/ whatever.

    I looked at a company whose ad said blahblah organic cotton blahblah natural dyes blahblah went to their website...not one single item was 100% cotton. Not one.

    I want up to date fashion or colors without any f*cking poly or spandex. I shop in the mens section and have better luck. But I sometimes want to look feminine. Not like man.

    I buy a lot of linen silk and wool items. I can find 100% linen or silk or wool items no probs. But 100% f*cking cotton? No. God damn it.

    The lack of bamboo clothing. I have two bamboo fiber shirts that are amazing. Bamboo is underutilized as a clothing textile. Unless I was lied to about how great it was for the environment. In which case, aw sugars.

    Hmm. This is very subjective. Nearly all the items are just personal taste. I actually really like wearing nearly all the things listed here in the right mood. The only one that is completely universal is pockets. Why are we not allowed pockets. They're so great we mention it every time we have them.

    I am 43 and have worn pantyhose maybe 3x in my life. I had rather be dead. My grandmother before she died a few years ago, would even wear the pantyhose socks with her tennis shoes. Never saw her wear a pair of regular socks.

    I have a pair of soft denim boyfriend jeans. They are hella comfy, warm and durable. I don't care how flattering they are or not I love them. They have deep pockets. I can move comfortably in them, garden, chase the kids, and throw them in the machine without a care in the world. Best clothing item ever.

    High waisted pants.

    If you’re short like me they end up under your boobs. They also give you a saggy butt. Even if you have the most perfectly toned butt in the world put it in a pair of high waisted pants and the butt suddenly becomes saggy!

    I wear high waisted pants sometimes. I don't get a saggy butt (and I am very far from perfectly toned). They are very forgiving and flattering for my stomach, but I am quite tall...if you are short then they are probably not meant for you.

    I don’t understand cold shoulder tops. Like, if it’s cold, why are you wearing a long sleeve shirt with your shoulders exposed? If it’s a tee shirt version, it just looks like it has holes. Exceptions are made for people with stunning shoulders I suppose. Like, if you are Iman or Wonder Woman, I guess I understand it, but perhaps a tank next time? Idk.

    It really is about finding the right cut for your body- not because there is anything wrong with one or the other, just they hang differently on you. I have had to change my requirements for dresses from my teen years where I was underweight. Thankfully there are plenty of options out there, especially if you buy second hand like I do.

    I genuinely don't like jeans (do jeans count as a clothing item for women? Women's jeans?). Full length jeans. idc what cut, they're coarse and rough and irritating. I like jean shorts, but when I have to wear something longer it's slacks/pants or leggings.

    Skirts in general. They make no sense to me. I'm sometimes masculine, sometimes very feminine, but even in my most feminine moments I refuse to wear skirts. It's just not practical enough for me.

    How are they on nonsensical? They make perfect sense! Instead of having to wear two pieces of clothing (shorts underneath a skirt), you can wear one. Makes perfect sense to me.
