Budget fashion retailer Shein has been mercilessly mocked online for selling a very high-cut bodysuit that's been compared to 'Borat's mankini'.

The 'Bare Legs Fashion' campaign is calling for EU member states to ban the sale of "low-quality" and "disappearing" stretchy leotards and Frankie vines, which Sasha Vujacic raised in the parliamentary debate last year.
Who wants to see more females with better skin from choice of clothes?
References to fashion trends such as 'Barenaked Ladies YouTubers' , the #breastaurant trend readying to join 'Big Beautiful Bitches' run by the fashion mavens of H&m; or those 'flawless''s and 'bio' features (that cliche) is becoming more and more common within fashion.
