Ill-fitting jeans, a VERY risque sequin gown and a catsuit: Shopper tries on bargain clothing she bought from a popular online store – with hilarious results

  • Shannon Harris purchased a number of outfits from a fast fashion retailer online
  • She decided to showcase her wares on YouTube, where she has 3.19m followers
  • What followed was a number of glamorous outfits and some shocking fails
  • One of them, a t-shirt dress and matching corset, didn’t fit over her bust at all

A beauty YouTuber has purchased $560 worth of fast fashion outfits and tried them on for her followers, to see whether they are worth the budget price tag.

Shannon Harris, who has 3.19million fans on the video sharing platform, decided to shop at one of her favourite retailers, but not everything she bought lived up to the hype.

The New Zealand-based makeup artist, 27, modelled six looks in the footage, choosing a standard size 12 for each item.

She wore the top a week later with matching denim shorts to a house party alongside her fiancé Hamish Kennard

For her first double denim ensemble Shannon found the cropped top sat nicely against her chest, while the jeans did little to accentuate her trim pins

On the website a t-shirt dress and baroque-style corset, which looked very trendy, was a 'big fat fail' on Shannon because it didn't fit over her breasts, something she was disappointed by

For her first look, a double denim ensemble, Shannon found the cropped top sat nicely against her chest, while the jeans did little to accentuate her trim pins.

‘The top I will definitely keep but the jeans aren’t tight enough for my liking. There is a lot of room around my hips and down the side of my legs,’ she said.

She wore the top a week later with matching denim shorts to a house party alongside her fiancé Hamish Kennard.

The second look was a sparkly mesh dress in an emerald green colour, which she found to be too big on her frame.

A risque black bodycon dress was the next thing the blonde bombshell slipped into, with the bride-to-be saying it would be the perfect festival attire with a black bikini worn underneath

While it couldn't be worn in an everyday location Shannon argued that it would make for a fun and flirty party look and fit perfectly

A gold sequin number was considerably less fitted and gaped at the bust, not showing off the YouTuber’s assets like she had hoped.

'Right now it's not doing anything for my chest and it has a tassel you can whip around as well,' she said

‘Right now it’s not doing anything for my chest and it has a tassel you can whip around as well,’ she said.

On the website a t-shirt dress and baroque-style corset, which looked positively trendy, was a ‘big fat fail’ on Shannon because it didn’t fit over her breasts, something she was disappointed by.

And the final khaki coloured mini dress she tried on – which had marks on the front that looked like nipples – was otherwise a ‘win’ for her summer wardrobe because it fit around her midsection. 

Shannon’s fans argued that some of the ill-fitting clothes could be altered to fit her body better and would save her returning the items.
