Shein clothing for women

Hi, thinking of ordering some summer clothes from Shein (tops/t shirts mainly) I'm a size 14 and just wondered what the quality and sizing is like? They do a 12/14 and a 16...would I need to size up or not? Thanks!

Looks like I'll avoid then, thanks all. The fact that items are difficult to return is enough to put me off plus the ethical stuff obviously Smile

@yoshiblue wow! Am appalled at that.

How does anyone know if ALL low cost fashion suppliers are ethical?

I bet even the Chanel/similar bags are not hand made by a master craftsman/woman either.

I've had a few things from there and they were cheap and cheerful, fitted ok and did me for the Summer. Then off to the charity shop. I'd never put clothes in the bin, nor would I send stuff back half way around the world when it cost a tenner.

We cannot police the entire fashion industry can we?

Agree re quality being really hit and miss. Disagree that things fall apart after a couple of washes, though!

I've ordered stuff that, on arrival, was just tat and other things that were well made and got loads of compliments. I recently worse a £16 dress to a funeral and literally everyone wanted to know where it was from. It was lined, lovely fabric, just fab.

It's an absolute lottery BUT returns are free and easy so I say give it a try.
