So I ordered a summer dress online . On the model it looks stunning of course .
It has arrived and it looks lovely a short sleeved midi dress I have now tried it on and looked in the mirror and bloody Mama Cass looked back at me !

I have never been able to wear dresses for this exact reason

Yes online shopping certainly has its drawbacks, you just cant tell and then its a right faff to send things back

I've given up on online shopping. The models are usually rake thin with legs like a Giraffe. They look great in the clothes. I'm a 5ft 7 size 16 and mostly stuff looks terrible. Especially if it's above my awful knees. I much prefer to try on in shops.

Same..but im 5ft and size 12... nothing fits right and if i order online i usually have to pay extra to have taken up. Even petite is too long 🤣.

I've still never forgotten a poster ordering online and saying that she looks like Suzi Quattro's fat nan.
