What's Shein Quality Like?

[TheOtherGirl]

Both DDs have been raving about Shein.co.uk. I've had a quick look at the stuff looks good but is dirt cheap. I'm loath to order anything for them until I know what the quality is like?

But I've already spotted a grey, sequined jumper on there which is identical to one from Zara, and also a dress which is identical to Zara's too. So, I'm guessing they use the same factories/designs?

I've only ever heard terrible things about it. Awful customer service and eBay quality clothes.

Awful. Ordered a few things a few years ago and never wore them because they were like plastic. Stuck them in the back of the wardrobe for a few months until I binned them, too crap to give away. Weirdly tiny and straight sizes as well, designed for an Asian bodytype

Sorry - I also meant to say, have a look on Trust Pilot at the reviews for the company.

They ‘copy’ things in the loosest way possible, what arrives won’t look like the site picture

I ordered three jumpers recently in a large. One of them is okay but the other two are so small that my average size 10 year old DD is wearing them.

They look so nice but way too cheap to be trusted. Shame because the jumpers really do look good!

I have ordered a few things from them. A bit hit and miss. A few really fab items and much better quality than Chinese eBay clothing.

The Zara dress and jumper dupes do look identical though?

Yes but it’s unlikely they’ll look like that when they arrive. Spend a bit more and get better quality that will last.

It does seem too good to be true.

I love shein, fast tracked delivery and the items I have ordered are lovely.

I love Shein but I am tiny - 5 foot 3 and size 6-8. Most of the clothes I get compliments on are from there.

I'm the same, 5ft 2 petite with size 3 feet. I love shein and happily tell people when they ask where the clothes are from and how cheap they are.

My experience with them was shocking! I ordered presents for Christmas and they arrived with an odd smell and with holes in. The sizes were also way off. I checked their size guide and it said they come up small so ordered an extra large that my size 10 frame couldn't fit. The returns process was a real ball ache too.

I would avoid if possible as the quality wasn't great...scratchy and see through

Don’t order from them!

Oh yes I should have said the sizes are off. (It's made in China) Everything comes up at least a size smaller than expected. So definitely upsize

Dd has bought from them and we've found it ok.

Awful. Of the four tops I bought none looked like the picture and only one was wearable.

Teach me to get sucked into a bargain!
