‘Accidents happen': Fans in hysterics over Cotton On jeans
A pair of jeans from Cotton On are going viral because of a questionable design detail that's been described as 'fart fashion' and compared to a bathroom mishap. It all began after TikTok user Adele shared a now-viral video, which has amassed 1.6 million views, showing herself browsing the denim section at a Cotton On store. The clip zooms in on a pair of blue jeans featuring brown stains across the front and back. Adele wrote over the clip, 'What was Cotton On thinking?' Her caption said, 'Someone had an accident', which quickly set the tone for thousands of comments. Jeans become butt of the joke One user joked that Cotton On was now selling pants that have been 'pre-sh*t' in, so you 'no longer need to sh*t them yourself'. Another person said they looked like 'quite the mess', one thought they were 'ew', and someone else declared 'they're so ugly'. Even Cotton On staff weighed in, with one admitting, 'as an employee … we also hate these jeans'. 'So you're telling me I could have accidentally slipped in mud, put my jeans on that pile, and get money for it?' another user asked, as a different person replied: 'Yes, because we absolutely want to look like we just had explosive diarrhoea in our jeans'. 'Run, don't walk … to the toilet,' another quipped. High fashion as inspo Crudeness aside, the jeans appear to be a budget-friendly 'dupe' of a high-end pair from cult label Acne Studios. The original, the Distressed Organic Mid-Rise Wide-Leg Jeans, retail for a staggering $1470 and is described by luxury retailer Net-a-Porter as 'intentional distressing … creating jeans that look as though they've been worn and loved for years'. Meanwhile, Cotton On's version, the Low Rise Straight Jean, is priced at $69.99, which is a fraction of the designer price tag. Fashion expert weighs in Fashion stylist Donny Galella told that it's not unusual for brands like Cotton On to offer affordable versions of premium designs. 'We are living in dupe culture world,' he said. 'Acne is definitely one of the world's hottest brands but given the cost of living crisis, many people don't have a spare $1400 laying around for a dirty looking pair of jeans. Especially for a 'trend' style pair of jeans that will have a short shelf life'. Mr Galella's advice is to 'invest that money into a more classic style pair of jeans that will be much more versatile and have a much longer shelf life'.

Melbourne: median house price rise a disadvantage for some
A four-figure rebound in Melbourne's median house price could be a mixed bag for buyers as competition increases at auctions and some properties become less affordable. PropTrack is expecting 460 Victorian homes to go under the hammer this week ahead of the King's birthday public holiday. A PropTrack report this week showed that Melbourne's typical house value increased by almost $8000 to reach $902,000 at the end of May. Former Carlton star Fraser Brown seals nine-figure deal The increase was the city's fifth straight month of growth and the single largest monthly rise since 2021 as other indicators revealed improving conditions. Real Estate Institute of Victoria interim chief executive Jacob Caine said agents were seeing heightened buyer activity, increased bidding at auctions and more purchasers putting in pre-auction offers for homes. 'I haven't heard a huge amount coming out of the marketplace that prices are jetting up, but generally speaking those other factors are really good signs that would also indicate that the prices are creeping up,' Mr Caine said. 'I think it's absolutely fair to anticipate that as Melbourne house prices continue to creep back up to historic highs, that buyers will experience disappointment and frustration as properties that might have been achievable at the beginning of the year become less affordable and perhaps out of reach.' PropTrack senior economist Angus Moore said it was important note that Melbourne's boosted median value would not necessarily translate to higher asking prices for all homes on the market. 'Obviously, rising home prices can make homes less affordable for first time buyers, though the fact that interest rates are falling is going to help improve affordability,' Mr Moore said. 'But the fact that we are seeing a reasonable volume of homes available for sale going to auction does give buyers a bit more choice.' Ray White, which represents 25 per cent of Melbourne's auction market, reporded a $833,000 median price result from the 145 auctions that it held across the city last week, which represented a 4 per cent rise when compared to 12 months prior. According to PropTrack, Victoria achieved a 67 per cent auction clearance rate last week from 1537 auction results.
