I bought my wedding dress from Shein for just £44 – the only word I can use to describe it is ‘perfect’
IT'S no secret that weddings will often end up costing a small fortune, with everything from the venue to the catering to think of.
And that's not to mention finding the fairytale wedding dress, which will often set the bride-to-be back thousands of pounds.
However, it turns out there's no need to fork out a small fortune on finding your dream gown, because Shein are flogging bargain options that look just as expensive.
But don't just take our word for it...
One delighted bride decided to cut back on costs by snapping up the Ever-Pretty 'Elegant Embroidered Lace Mesh & Pearl Patchwork Shoulder Strap Wedding Dress' from the online retailer.

Clearly delighted with her bargain find, she was quick to rush to the review section and praised: "Perfect is the right word to describe this dress."
The eye-catching sleeveless, V-neck frock, which is available in a range of sizes from 8-18, features a classic A-line design and stunning double straps emblazoned with intricate pearl detailing.
And with its designer look but bargain price tag, it's little surprise delighted customers have left five-star reviews.
"Just a magnificent dress - it suits me perfectly, so thank you!" praised one.
A second penned: "Exactly as described - I recommend!"
A third added: "The dress itself is beautiful and perfect size except that it's transparent and you have to wear an underskirt."
And the Ever-Pretty dress isn't the only wedding frock from Shein that's sent bride's into a frenzy in recent weeks.
Another happy customer claimed the 'Love & Lemonade 'women's white fish tail wedding dress with straps' was the "perfect" frock for her - adding that it "fit like a glove."
The £44 sparkly dress features a halter neckline and stunning silver sequin detail to ensure any bride is the star of the show.
Sharing a selfie of herself wearing the gown in question, the mermaid style is super flattering on her figure, hugging her in all the right places.
Ecstatic with her purchase, she enthused: "Very nice dress. I am very pleased. It's very comfortable and fits like a glove."
A fashion expert's verdict on buying a wedding dress from Shein
WHEN it comes to your big day, you want to feel your best and look your best.
You want to feel special and, more importantly, be comfortable in what you're wearing, are you going to get that from Shein? I doubt it.
Look, in an ideal world you're getting hitched to the person of your dreams and what you wear is irrelevant. But let's be honest, it's kind of a big deal.
If you're spending your hard earned cash on food, drinks, favours and everything else to celebrate you and your partner with your nearest and dearest, you deserve a dress that makes you feel like a million dollars.
But a £30 frock from Shein is a gamble.
It might be ill fitting, it might be badly made or just the complete opposite to what you expected.
