• The woman was disappointed as the dress did not fit as she had anticipated.

• When it comes to buying clothes or accessories always have an open mind.

We can't always be guaranteed we will get exactly what we ordered online

We've heard tales of people purchasing items online just to get something entirely different! Let's act smart, buy similar stuff, and send it.

Even worse is if you buy a dress thinking you will look exactly like that, but you don't have the body for it. Did you look at your body size?

A South African influencer has amused netizens with a comparison photo collage of the dress she ordered online versus what she received.

Twitter user mmmemani from Johannesburg captioned the failed dress

"GUYS YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT!!!I paid this woman 13k for this dress. I’m so hurt😫

What I asked for. vs. What I got"

Her fashion fail comment got 45k likes and thousands of retweets, with many relating to her situation.

The influencer added

"For clarity, I paid a 50% deposit for the dress and I had to pay the balance on the date I get the dress which was meant to be yesterday (the day of the photo on the right)"

"I didn’t buy any material. She quoted me ZAR13k for everything in the beginning and assured me it would be good. This was over 4 weeks ago"

@Inimisioluwahow can u pay 13k for this the material you bought didn’t have much design so they have to use appliqué to make it up but some tailor self

@COzonwoye·You are a thief because how will you pay someone 13k to make this dress for you

@Mahjoreen·You thought they would deliver it with a perfect body shape

@knorye_nnaji13k for only the sewing? Or plus material? She tried o.. my tailor won’t sew that dress for 13k

@mmuyiiwaa i13k for this and you were not scared of the quality? I know that sometimes lower price doesn’t necessarily mean lower quality but most times lower price = lower quality. 13k and you went ahead? Lmao be like na you hurt the tailor sef

@thestormdebargeI need you to tell me you didn’t pay 13k and please tell me they fixed It and gave you some money back or discount

@Moh_BaashLol But on a serious note, people should also understand the fact that...ur physique is also a major factor for someone else style not to fit u or look the same...
