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.

Same! I've been using same model of jeans for more than 10 years, finally when I couldn't find them even in thrift shops anymore. Long story short, found a new favourite jeans, and it has larger pockets than the jeans I used before.

And if there are pockets they are almost always smaller than those on man's pants. I don't want to wear a purse.

Leggings with pockets. It's the best thing ever. You can find them on Amazon and I've found them at Costco. I can even fit my entire Nintendo Switch in one of the pockets and sit down! I don't carry a purse anymore. I put my cards in a slim cigarette case with my keys in one pocket and my phone in the other. Nothing ever falls out and I can still get in the floor and play with my kid or wear a long flowy shirt over it and it still look nice.

Ughgghgh this makes me rage. I bought 2 pairs of pants from old navy a few weeks ago and there's no indication that the pockets are fake. Why even put in the lines? Why pretend the pockets are there? what is the point of this other than enraging someone who sees a picture of pants and there seems to be a pocket there...but oh no, I've been bamboozled once again. Stop pocket ghosting us!

Then buy them. Shop I worked in quite often had full pocket women's jeans and pocket skirts specially advertised every year, and every year they ended up on the heavy discount racks by the hundreds because they just didn't get bought. Sales figures for non pocket jeans and skirts were always way higher, so few people bought the pocketed things it was an inventory nightmare to shift them.

I don't defend designers, but most women's jeans are very tight, so it would be hard to fit something in a pocket anyway. I speak from experience because all my jeans, definitely a feminine model, had pockets, but it was hard to even put money in.

No pockets on women's clothing is IMO, 100% sexism meant to keep women out of the workplace and looking "sexy for their man". I've noticed the more "professional" the pants, the less likely the pockets. And I'm sorry, but I've got back issues and better things to do than haul around a big-ass purse along with my work stuff just so I have a place for my keys, USB drives, and pens. If pants don't have large functional pockets, don't keep the company in business by buying dysfunctional clothing. Sorry for the soapbox, but when my toddler has pockets and I don't, it really pisses me off.

I have a sweater jacket, I can't tell you how many times I've slid my hands down the sides and ended up disappointed. So disappointed. There's nothing like seeing wedding dresses with pockets to counteract that feeling. Also the seamstress on Youtube who has re-engineered just about all of her clothes with - you guessed it.

Speak out bro! We need to attack toxic gender stereotypes together not fight against each others. Our concerns are being heard, slowly, but heard nevertheless. I've noticed there's more pockets in women's clothing than there were 10 years ago. There's more colourful men's clothing. There's fashionable shoulder bags for men. And man, I'm totally with you in this pantyhose situation, we need pantyhose with longer legs!

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.

Girl sleeves. Like short capped sleeves on women's tops. Just give me regular sized sleeves.

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.

I'm actually happy with ankle trousers because I'm short, they are normal length for me. It's so difficult to find nice trousers when you are short

Boho style dresses with the little boob cups, sized up for 12 and above without expanding the cups.

Seriously. Really hate the specified boob areas for most tops and dresses. Most I see even being a b cup might be too big to fit. And if you're a ddd amd buy your size and try to allocate your boobs in the area there's no way because not even nipple would be covered.

Most shoes, as they are too narrow.

Why oh why can't we have shoes with proper toe boxes? Even the tennis shoes are too narrow at the front. Are we not supposed to have toes?

Trousers with fabric so thin that it clings and highlights every lump.

Also not a specific item, but I hate it when I'm shopping for clothes and see something that looks great but then it turns out to be made of icky fabric that feels scratchy or would make you feel swampy and sweaty or is too thin to hang nicely.

Pants made of thin material also pill and wear through after being worn only a few times. 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.

Women Are Sharing The Most Irritating Things About Their Clothing, Here Are 35 Of The Worst Tights! I think Americans call them pantyhose. They are so annoying, especially if they’re too small and they started to twist around the crotch area lol

FYI tights and pantyhose are not the same, even in America. Tights are much thicker/ heavier and pantyhose are sheer. Both are awful at bunching in the crotch though and apparently just wearing thigh highs "looks slutty"

If they are the right fut and don't have anything that's itchy or poking me I love the support and security.

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).
