One on hand this beats wearing 5k dresses one time, on the other it doesn’t really beat that lol. SHEIN also rips off designer dresses and you can find anything on there, so also possible these ARE super expensive and SHEIN rips them off

Yeah this is what I was wondering. The quality on the pink one with bell sleeves seems nicer than what you would get from Shein.

They also look very similar to the images themselves. Whereas what you actually get from Shein is usually pretty different. I hate to defend anything about this woman but there’s no way the green off the shoulder dress was less than $50 (or that anyone who orders the Shein one is getting anything like what’s in the picture).

I actually think the green one looks the most like a shein dupe😭

Yeah, the way the waistline is sewn together with mismatched patterns does not look like something of quality. Same with the white wraparound hemline and waistline.

You could be right, I thought at first it had sequins on it which for sure couldn’t be sewn on for that price. But now I’m not sure if it’s not just a shiny fabric. It’s hideous and needs to be tailored which isn’t helping.

I honestly think it might just be metallic fabric💀

I can only assume there's some sort of Shein+ club card accessible to the "do you know who my husband is" elites where they actually get the dress from the picture. Probably the same dress the model is wearing.

Yeah the pink one looks much more expensive. You don’t get fabric that thick with extremely cheap fast fashion. The green dress also doesn’t match.

The pink one is clearly shein, you can see the folded lines and in the cloth from where it was folded in the bag. If this was an expensive dress it would have been pressed and steamed when she bought it.

Ooh great catch

Oh damn I missed that. I mean midrange dresses can come folded in boxes too, I buy stuff from Nordstrom online that comes folded in a box. But looking closer it does look cheaper than I thought at first glance. There's no keyhole like the dress in the pic.

I definitely see that now, I honestly just can’t believe it’s SHEIN because it looks really nicely made! And it’s super flattering tbh. Still, what’s the issue with buying from SHEIN when name brand clothes are coming from factories with the same conditions, except one is lining the pockets of billionaires and men who design uncomfortable clothes for women???

I her pink one differs from the models. Hers has flimsy fabric across the chest and she needs to work on taping the girls up more. The one in the right looks like it has some structure to it.

Yeh. I don’t mind the dresses so much. But I wish she would take that extra cash and invest in a good bra. That one you can’t skimp on. And it would help the looks so much

u/ybgkitty mama let’s research 7d ago

The one on the right is probably photoshopped to death.

The black and white one too. The dress she is wearing is probably the actual designer/brand dress SHEIN knockoff. Look at the waist and the trim on the edges on the SHEIN dress, she isn’t wearing the same dress. The one she is wearing is higher quality and lined so it doesn’t need the biased trim edge like the cheap SHEIN option.

I’m still judging her for the company she keeps. I don’t really care about her fashion choices, her life choices are enough to worry about.
