IT’S been her favourite fashion combo for years.
And Bianca still reaches for a floral dress and denim jacket whenever she wants to feel stylish and comfortable.

But style maven Nerys Middleton recently declared the look to be “ageing” on women[/caption]
But Bianca even went as far as to say that she wants to be “buried” wearing the ensemble because she loves it so much[/caption]
Fashionista Nerys is known for sharing “brutal” style advice and recently took aim at the “frumpy” denim jacket and floral dress look[/caption]
But she was left questioning her ensemble when style maven Nerys Middleton labelled it a fashion crime – insisting it’s “frumpy” and “ageing” when worn by a woman over 50.
However, in a video on her TikTok page, Bianca, 51, insisted she doesn’t understand what’s so offensive about the outfit.
“Why am I being told I shouldn’t wear this outfit?” she asked.
“My initial thoughts are, you can wear what the hell you like – it’s none of anybody’s business what you put on your body.
“What is wrong with a woman of 50 wearing this?
“Is it frumpy? Does it age me? Am I out of a loop that I should be in?”
Bianca went on to say that the outfit has worked for her on virtually any occasion – from a festival to a garden party to a pub brunch.
“In fact, I want to be buried in this outfit,” she declared.
After asking whether or not it’s “wrong for a woman over 50 to wear a floral dress and a denim jacket”, Bianca suddenly said: “You know what?
“They can stick that where the sun don’t shine. I like it. I think it looks good. I’m wearing it.
“I’m out of here!”
She then cheekily directed her conclusion at Nerys, as she said: “She can kiss my ass!”
The comments section was almost immediately filled with people debating the style choice, with some agreeing with Nerys.
“You answered your own question when you said you’ve been in love with this combo ‘for years’ … yep. Dated,” one sighed.
“It’s because everyone looks the same. It’s like an over 50’s uniform!” another added.
“Sorry, I’m with Nerys.”
The must-have jacket every woman needs in their wardrobe and how to style it
A CLASSIC trench can see you through to spring and beyond.
Fabulous’ Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale reveals why it’s the only coat you’ll ever need…
“In the autumn, the weather is frustratingly unpredictable, from rain one minute to glorious sunshine the next, it’s hard to keep up. And when it comes to what to wear, it makes dressing tricky.
Luckily, a trench is perfect for this. Nice and light, it can simply be folded away into your bag if you suddenly feel too hot.
I love Tu at Sainsbury’s Stone Longline Belted Trench Coat – was £40, now £28.
During a warm, wet autumn, style your trench coat with a midi dress. Then, when it gets cooler, start layering. Opt for a long sleeve top, sweater vest and boots.
When the winter chill sets in, bigger, thicker knits are a must, and if your trench coat is a little oversized, they will fit perfectly underneath with being too bulky you can’t move your arms.
Opt for thick tights and long boots and I promise you won’t miss your big winter coat.
December is all about festivities and a trench is the perfect option to wear over your party frock to take you from A to B.
And when Spring rolls around with wet weather, it’ll be your trench coat that you’ll be reaching for again.”
“She doesn’t say you can’t, she just says it’s ageing on woman over 50,” a third commented.
“But you’re right, wear what you like and just scroll past if you don’t like her content.”
“She’s entitled to her opinion, I don’t understand why people are so triggered by her!” someone else insisted.
“Wear what you want!”
As another diplomatically wrote: “Do you know, you DO look really good.
“However, many of us don’t and Nerys is quite right.
“In this situation, you’re both right!”
Bianca giggled as she jokingly told Nerys to “kiss my ass”[/caption]
