"Skimpy and ridiculous" girls pants sold as shorts by Marks and Spencer illustrate a disturbing childrenswear trend, say parents and campaigners.
The "tiny and tight" leopard print pants appeared in the 'girls shorts' section due to an error but campaigners say the fact they didn't stand out among the numerous unsuitable items demonstrates a bigger problem.
While boys can pick from a range of practical and long shorts with pockets it's increasingly difficult for girls to do the same, according to Let Clothes Be Clothes.
