I should not laugh..

because brides have enough stress and these poor brides have been scammed, but I can't help it. It's like the time Denise tried to make a shirt for Theo before a big dance.

Chinese knock offs

JennyColada · January 2015

Oh god, I love those. They are SO sad.

amelisha · January 2015

LOL. Most of the originals were heinous enough, though...

sarawifenow · January 2015

Wow some of those are just aweful!

wandajune6 · January 2015

It's sad but also kinda hilarious.

People choose to ignore common sense when they think it will benefit. That's how they end up with that horrid blue number.

lyndausvi · January 2015

The original is like Scarlet O'Hara from GWTW and ended up like some bad 80's prom dress

Every time a bride asks us if a certain unknown website is legit, we should just post that link.

QueerFemme · January 2015

I totally stalk the Brides Beware facebook page pretty often. The shit they find... wowww

flutteringinfl · January 2015

My dad encouraged me to use a Chinese knockoff site, his reason being that his wife used one. Hers came out okay but she had to pay a lot to tailors in order to get it there.

So what's the thought process here? I paid $150 for a $5000 dress...should look perfect then.

Right??? You're knowingly knocking off a real designer's work for 2% of the retail price. I don't feel that bad for these brides.

Sounds reasonable.

I mean, fat free lactose free low calorie ice cream tastes JUST like the real thing too.

One writes: 'I bought my wedding dress online, but I am very very disappointed. The dress is from a very bad quality of material. I want to return the product but they don't want to give me the money back. In a few words: they are selling bad dresses, bad quality of material and they are cheating the people.'

novella1186 · January 2015

You get what you pay for. Why do these people not understand that at all?

or

If the deal is too good to be true, that's cuz it is.

Both are phrases most of us learned when we were like 5. Too bad for these brides, but good for us to get a laugh.

climbingsingle · January 2015

Ahhhh the Theo shirt! That was the best episode.

climbingsingle · January 2015

Also I don't feel bad for these people.

Nope!

In fact, these people should be THANKFUL that this lesson only cost them $150-$300.

Me either. The lack of common sense or any form of logical reasoning is just... wow. Like the $5 bottle of wine will taste the same as the $300 bottle.

Ugh. That's a horrendous assault on humanity. Legit vodka drinkers (like me) would still taste the difference. And those are just relying on tons of sugar, or tons of sour to try to mask the taste of bad liquor, either of which are begging for a nasty stomach ache followed by a nasty hangover. I take this as a personal insult. Fucking buzzfeed. And whoever wrote that other thing.

JennyColada · January 2015

I dunno, I think that they sound yummy.

But I also genuinely like the taste of McDonald's so...

MairePoppy · January 2015

This should be a sticky on the Attire board.

They are yummy. I had a lot of those mixed drinks in college. Especially the flavored vodka with lemonade.

sophhabobopha · January 2015

Durrrrr, brides.

$1 quality does not equal $1000 quality.

My Fi loves vodka, novella. He usually drinks it just on the rocks. What is your favorite brand? His go to at restaurants is Titos but we have Opulent at home. I was thinking of getting him a bottle for our wedding (I know he'll need it anyhow)

jenna8984 · January 2015

Bahahaha love these. Kinda want to order one for Halloween.

my go-to is Stoli, but I also drink Kettle One a lot. Chopin is really delicious (only main-stream vodka I know of that's still made from potatoes). I avoid Ciroc and Grey Goose because they're made from grapes and the taste is just off to me. Right now I'm very happy with this Russian vodka I randomly picked up at a liquor store, but the label is in Russian so I have no idea what the name is lol. I meant to text a picture of it to my friend who's from there so he can translate for me

SBmini · January 2015

I'm going to laugh and not feel bad about it. If you are naive enough to think that a $150 wedding dress will be a great buy, then you deserve to be laughed at.

KatieinBkln · January 2015

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

People are so dumb sometimes. But they bring me great joy when they post these side-by-sides, so I salute them.

I wouldn't buy a dress I hadn't tried on, personally. Even if it meant (and did mean!) that I couldn't have a fancy designer dress.

I hope it's the one with the multicoloured ruffles exploding out the bottom.
