They are an online clothes firm. Saw their clothes being advertised on Pinterest. They look absolutely beautiful and I was all set to order a few things but decided to look at reviews first. The reviews were terrible. Clothes nothing like the pictures and poor customer care service…….

I wonder why reputable clothes companies don’t replicate these gorgeous designs?? I’m sure they would be more expensive but so worth it for a complete change from the same old ….that we are being offered.

You ask ‘why reputable companies don’t replicate these gorgeous designs’. They have almost certainly been copied from the designs of a reputable company - China is well known for ignoring intellectual property rights and creating cheap knock-offs. The photos you see never show the (obviously not Chinese) models’ faces because they have been stolen and the clothes copied.

Exactly this. The designs are stolen and reproduced cheaply with terrible working conditions. Don’t shop there.
