I ordered wedding guest dresses from PLT but it was a flop – one was see-through and it went downhill from there
A FASHION enthusiast has shared her rather unsuccessful PrettyLittleThing shopping haul after forking out for wedding guest dresses.
Finding the perfect outfit for attending someone’s nuptials can be just as frustrating and stressful as organising the ceremony – and one person who certainly knows a little about this is Saskia.
Ahead of her step-sister’s wedding, the style enthusiast decided to have a look on PrettyLittleThing, where she bagged a pile of dresses.
However, little did she know that the haul would turn out to be a major disaster, which she’d later share on TikTok.
Armed with a massive bag of clothes, the wedding guest tried on the first number – a one-shoulder midi dress in sage green that came with a flattering tie detailing around the waist.
Sadly for the PLT customer, things would be off to a bad start, as she said: ”Dress number one is see-through, […] you can see my bra, you can see my underwear – and I’ve got a nude underwear and a nude bra on, so…
”That’s a no,” she quickly concluded in the video.
Unfortunately, the following garment did not offer Saskia much hope either, as the advertisement led her to think the material would be ”more structured” than it arrived.
After putting it on, the fashionista said: ”I look like someone’s mum’s f*****g curtains.”
The third dress in the flop of a haul was a long-sleeve satin-like dress with an abstract print in different colours.
Despite thinking it was giving ”rich auntie’s dressing gown”, Saskia remained hopeful and jumped into the garment – but to no avail.
”Okay, immediate no,” the style fanatic pointed out to the leggy display and the plunging neckline.

”I don’t love these big puffy sleeves, I just don’t feel like they fit the vibe.
”The colours, though, I love and this material is super, super nice.”
It was then time to try on the fourth outfit – a strappy, figure-hugging maxi dress with a watercolour print in vibrant purple and red.
Checking out her reflection in the mirror, Saskia was horrified.
”I hate myself for just giving this dress the benefit of the doubt again.”
Despite having order the same style dress not long ago in the same size – UK 10 – the shopper reckoned the fit was off, as it felt tighter around her bottom half.
Next up was yet another pastel sage green dress – and just like the first one, this, too, was thin in material and see-through.
”Shows every little bump […]. Yeah, it’s a f*****g no.”
Sadly for Saskia, the disaster haul continued on a bad roll, as she saw what the sixth outfit – an ocean blue wrap dress – looked like on.
”It does technically fit me – it fits my arms, it fits my armpits,” she noted before pointing out to a major flaw – her underwear was on show.
”This one is a no as well,” the woman appeared to slowly be losing all hope.
Much to her surprise, however, the final two dresses of the same style – a one-shoulder midi dress with a high slit – were here to save the day, as Saskia enjoyed the fit.
”The only thing with this dress because of the material is that if you sweat, it’ll show.”
Unsure which number to go for – either the sage green or a stunning blue – Saskia sought advice from her followers online.
One reckoned: ”100% blue – you’re a cool skin tone and the blue brings your features to life.”
Another said: ”The 2nd dress didn’t look like curtains it look beautiful.
”The two satin ones looked lovely but how do you iron them.”
”BLUEEEE, it goes w your eyes 10000% and suits you so much,” a third penned.
”blue hand down,” someone else chimed in.
