Viewers of the popular soap opera EastEnders are voicing their displeasure with the styling of the character Sharon Watts. Many have taken to social media to demand that the character's stylist be fired, citing recent outfits that they deem "hideous."
Sharon Watts' frumpy blue lace dress under fire
In a recent episode, Sharon, a long-standing icon of the fictional town of Walford, was seen wearing a frumpy blue lace dress with oversized puffy sleeves. Fans were quick to criticize the unflattering shape of the garment and its failure to highlight actress Letitia Dean's new slimmer figure.
Calls for the costume department to take action
Viewers flooded social media platforms with complaints about the wardrobe choices for Sharon. Many fans expressed their frustration, with one stating, "Dear costume department, huns... Sharon is not a big roll, stop dressing her as such." Another simply demanded, "Whoever is dressing Sharon in EastEnders needs sacking." A third viewer agreed, stating, "Whoever is styling Sharon needs the sack."
Too many lace dresses
Another common criticism was that Sharon is being styled in too many similar lace dresses that simply do not suit her. One viewer voiced their opinion, saying, "Sharon is stunning, but those lace dresses are just not doing it. Wish she'd stop wearing them." Another questioned whether the character's dresses are a form of marketing for the show or the BBC itself, noting the repetition of the dress design in different colors. Yet another viewer suggested that a more flattering skirt or trouser suit would better suit Sharon's slimmer figure and called on the EastEnders wardrobe team to do better.
A recent twist in Sharon's storyline
In a recent shocking turn of events, Keanu Taylor broke off his engagement with Sharon. The couple, who had planned to marry later this year, faced troubles after Sharon assisted Keanu's daughter in relocating to Portugal.
