ALIEXPRESS WEDDING DRESS HAUL | TRYING ON CHEAP WEDDING DRESSES FROM ALIEXPRESS 2020 (i'm SHOCKED)

[@PrettyPastelPlease]

Hey guys!!! I hope you're all staying safe and well during the pandemic. I was going to wait a bit longer before posting this video as it doesn't feel right to be posting fun videos at a time like this, but I know so many people are at home in isolation right now so i'm posting in the hopes of keeping people entertained. These dresses are made in China and the manufacturer has stopped taking orders at the moment because of the virus. They will be available again soon, but i'm not sure when. I’ve been made aware that since I filmed and posted this video, the prices of the dresses has changed. I’m so sorry that this has happened, I had absolutely no idea. I don’t know if it’s because the Australian dollar has crashed (it’s really low right now because of the pandemic - when I filmed this, $1AUD was worth around 75US cents, but now our dollar is only worth 57US cents, so there’s a huge difference in the conversion.) It could also be that the seller has changed the price because of the pandemic and maybe their business isn’t doing well, so they’re charging more. Regardless of what’s happened, I’m so sorry that the prices in this aren’t accurate now. I still stand by what I said about the dresses, but now that they’re more expensive, I wouldn’t rate them the same way I did before. I’ll update this post when I get more information from the seller. The seller made some discount codes (not affiliate) if you'd like to save money on your purchases. PASTEL8 10-8 Get US $8.00 off on orders over US $10.00 PASTEL20 150-20 Get US $20.00 off on orders over US $150.00 PASTEL30 300-30 Get US $30.00 off on orders over US $300.00

[@quokkakola1722]

I would love to see you interview a seamstress to see what they would do to “fix” these dresses and what their limitations may be that neither you or the viewer would consider.

[@PrettyPastelPlease]

Great idea!! 💓💓

[@DaBunne]

I'd love to see them estimate the value of each dress! lol and then tell them what each dress actually cost xD

[@shyla.from.the.westcoast]

That is SUCH a neat idea!

[@EmEm78]

I'd like to know what the children in the sweatshops who made these dresses get paid.

[@PowerToolsnPearls]

For a dress with lace all the way down from waist to floor you would actually remove the top layer and trim from the waist and put it back on. The lower layers can be shortened from the bottom in the usual way.

[@kaitlynadm8768]

The “plastic” on the first dress is called horsehair and is used to give the skirt shape ( it kind of ruffles at the bottom and so the horsehair keeps that ruffle shape in place)

[@TheSuperHopeless]

Confirmed. I had this on my wedding dress and it looked lovely, but I think it was a nicer quality material as mine didn't look so crinkled. The other thing with mine was the stitching done to keep the horsehair in place was with clear thread to make it less visible.

[@estylefree]

Yes, the horsehair is often on the lining so it isn't seen on the outer layer of fabric. Marchesa designed a lot of gowns with a beautifully purposeful horsehair trim. Example: www.net-a-porter.com/ru/en/product/1061434/marchesa/embellished-tulle-and-mesh-gown

[@maddiek963]

Came here to say this! It give a really lovely effect.

[@cicib526]

I was literally going to write the same thing it’s not strange it’s very on trend and can be an expensive feature

[@kalistaier2286]

I have it on my wedding dress and I absolutely love it it's one of my favorite things about it but it sounds like hers was cheap horsehair lace which would explain why it wouldn't look nice

[@ameliaweltch9600]

Ex Bridal Consultant here! The straps on the pink dress are twisted in the back bc they are meant to be worn off the shoulder! This makes them lay nicer, and on higher end dresses, they will be twisted in the front and back. This gives a romantic, dreamy vibe 💕

[@darlenebassett-perry5201]

When showing the dresses on hangers, you should show the back of the dresses as well. Same when you try them on. Brides choose a dress based on the style of the back & length of train.

[@rozharris6834]

"I gave my measurements before Christmas and now I'm not the same as... Before Christmas." Relatable.

[@josie8997]

I know it's probably not a possiblity at the moment, with the virus, but with how much you mention alterations and seamstress work, maybe an idea for a future video could be to actually go visit a seamstress and show them the dresses, have them price the alterations and give an estimation of how much time it would take them. I don't know if that's possible, but i think it'd be an interesting video^^

[@DaBunne]

Oooo I'd love to see a seamstress estimate the value of each dress!!

[@taylorjenkins4517]

Yes this is a great idea!

[@lyka0518]

That really will depend on each seamstress though. It could be really cheap at one place but more expensive somewhere else. And take longer one place but only a few days somewhere else. So honestly that would just make it sound scary if she ended up going to an expensive one and people heard alterations were like $500 and will take 2 months (which is possible) when some places can probably do it for $100 in 2 weeks. It would also depend on the type of alterations each person would need.

[@josie8997]

@@lyka0518 i can see that being an issue, you're right, but usually you can tell what kind of price-range a place will have and if she clarifies beforehand what alterations would be made to fit her tastes, i think it could still be interesting.

[@Car2Bird]

This is an amazing idea.

[@therealmimicherry9735]

I cackled at the dress with “The Arrow” 🤣 “Hey! Wedding night, ⬇️ here!”

[@bunnyhunny4417]

I would like if you tried each dress on after you talk about it because by the time you actually try it on I already forgot everything you said about the dress 30 minutes ago.

[@em84c]

@@marianaguzman4733 I like how her videos are long

[@Justafellathatexists]

22:57 Thats horse hair boning! It's actually an expensive addition! It weighs the dress down and helps it keep it's form!

[@melon2420]

The "plastic" is horse braid hair, to helps the dress fall beautifully, so it's actually not an accident, that it's there 😊

[@madisoned]

thank you! I was going to explain that, as well

[@beckyluvstoscrapnsew]

yep... faux horse hair braid...the true version was actually made from horse hair , it’s been used for hundreds of years to add volume and to keep the shape of mainly hemlines and also used a lot in hair fascinators and hats...used to be damn expensive until this cheap plastic version came in ...

[@losthersheep728]

Haha, I was going to explain that too lol.

[@wildflower1397]

I think it is also called crinoline. I have never seen it on tulle where it shows, but then again, I have never shopped for a tulle skirt, lol

[@ShelbyZealand]

That last dress is gorgeous on you, for the record. Obviously we all have our personal tastes for what we wear, but no need to worry; you look gorgeous in everything.

[@skullslace2426]

I think if there's a time to upload videos, it's now. We all can appreciate something to make us smile and take our minds off of the pandemic.

[@zinnia517]

The second to the last dress that you gave a 10/10 was my favorite. Holy moly it was absolutely beautiful!!! But you posed a very good question on whether it was that gorgeous bc you’re an influencer or if it truly is that beautiful. Maybe a follow up video idea would be to order one or two of your faves under someone else’s name and see if they are the same quality as the free ones 🤔 just a thought. Love your vids 💜👍🏽

[@josephinemukeni8574]

I second you,i thought the same thing..

[@littlemisspsych1218]

As someone who alters a lot of dresses, for the dress with the lace that extends up the skirt a long way with an obvious seam around the waist, it would be easiest to unpick the waist and lift it there to shorten it, especially considering the lace around the waist would be much quicker and easier to remove and reapply when you’d shortened it as there’s not as much of it. That’s a big cheat for shortening dresses which have very detailed hemlines or impossible to remove lace! The last one I did like that had decorative eyelets cut and embroidered into the actual fabric so no hemming possible! 😉

[@marytramp5678]

I was going to say that's what my seamstress did..

[@lunaax9503]

I was looking for someone commenting this!

[@SueK2001]

Yes, exactly. I've done that as well.

[@samgunn9506]

That’s what my seamstress did for my wedding in November. Turned out fantastic and she even relocated the pockets so the were usable still.

[@littlemisspsych1218]

22:33 The plastic mesh is known as horsehair braid which when it is sewn into a skirt it helps give the skirt hem more shape and body so that it isn't just lying flat. You don't normally see them on sheer fabric because it doesn't look the best and as such are normally sewn on the outside of the skirt and then folded under and then stitched down so that you can't see it

[@SeiichirouUta]

Sorry, a bit of a party pooper here. I'm a seamstress, dressmaker and garment technician, self-employed. There is a reason why I don't agree to do alterations. For dresses like those it mostly is work that's more complicated than sewing a new one. Also people usually are not willing to pay a price that could offer a seamstress a decent living. Even as a garment technician I often get offered 10€/hour which basically is an insult. And never forget that there is a reason why these dresses are so cheap in the first place - despite all the fabrics, the laces, the meters and meters of seams... Imagine what a seamstress in China gets paid, so their employer can sell the dresses this cheap. I used to work in China as a garment technician. The cheaper, the worse. Like in: "They don't even offer a proper toilet for the workers" worse... You may not have to pay much money. But you sure should pay with your conscience.

[@ariaalexandria3324]

Professional seamstress here with a business 21 years old. I can back this comment 100%. First-workers tend to be spoiled and very used to getting things as cheaply as possible and are so disconnected from the source that it's easy to forget that spoiled-first-world cheapness leads to things like the Bangladesh factory collapse that killed over 1,000 people and maimed many more in a country with no disability safety net. These cheap prices are subsidized with the blood and lives of others. Frighteningly often those workers are CHILDREN. The age minimums are lip service. Factory owners will often hire anyone who claims to be of age, but you can tell when an 8-year-old isn't 14. Whether it's these cheap wedding dresses or cheap clothing in general. I encourage people to buy far fewer pieces (the toll disposable fashion is having on this planet is shocking and horrifying and literally destroying our planet) of better quality, which will cost more, yes, but fewer pieces make the difference, or buying second-hand. I love Poshmark for this (notice how I'm not even giving my referral code--that's because this comment isn't for making money, but rather to drive people to a site to get good used stuff). The overall expectation that new stuff should dirt-cheap has made it hard for seamstresses in safe places to get decent wages as well. If someone told Alex she's worth $5 an hour, that person would be yelled at. Yet that's what she's saying about others by advocating these dresses. She's saying others are worth too little pay for the work they do.

[@RossanaPiccolaStar]

I altered a dress for a friend, it costed her 4 times the price she paid for her dress (it was a cheap dress but gives you an idea) and I made her a nice price cause she is my friend I felt terribly bad for her, but I had to unpick all the seams, alter the beaded belt, etc :/ I think that next time she’ll probably just ask me to make her a dress that fits her from the beginning

[@jessicanice1335]

your not a party pooper by pointing out the factual reality of the working conditions of places like these. Too many ppl just dont care, its all about saving money for themselves even at the disadvantage of lowwage workers. I wish she would have said "no".

[@kittieberry4214]

Some people dont have money for high price dresses and this all they can afford and i dont believe in second hand because spirits get attached to things especially wedding dresses i know i read

Hello , it's been one year since you commented, just checking did you have your wedding? I hope it was the best day of your life

[@KristinBowles]

At 8:16 - I'm fairly confident that the straps are meant to be folded over for off-the-shoulder wear. Hence the lace detail is on the correct side - IF you wear those folded over as an arm decoration, and not as proper supportive straps. If you wear it tank top style - with the straps going vertically up over your shoulders - then it's going to be uncomfortable and also probably look a bit juvenile for that mermaid silhouette. *watches more of the video before posting* Ah yup! 28:15 during the try on, you stumble on the truth of it!

[@darlenecarroll3876]

Honestly the third dress. Mermaid cut of the dress makes your body shape look like perfection

[@NoNo-zx4gt]

I proposed to my husband with a $50 ring. Got married with a $25 wedding ring. Was bare foot. My honeymoon was the wedding so saved money. Made the pictures look magical. I spent less on the most magical perfect day than most people pay in rent. (I was graciously gifted my dress and didn’t have to worry about it) and our first Christmas and anniversary we paid down the house. I’m so blessed to have found someone that doesn’t care about monetary value or about wasteful spending. With that being send get what makes you happy. Just don’t chose something because it’s price makes it seem important. Diamonds aren’t rare they aren’t worth the waste!

[@chloecrafts9869]

I would love to see if it's actually cheaper to order a whole dress from an etsy seller. Idk if it's going to be financially worth it for Alex because she's already married but it's an interesting idea

[@ariaalexandria3324]

If you find someone importing from China. If you want to order from an actual independent seamstress in a first-world country, absolutely not. The time alone on any of those dresses for those prices, without taking anything out for fabrics, would be a few dollars an hour. The fabrics alone can cost the finished price of those dresses.

[@BrewmasterAdaryn]

Future seamstress here: please for the sake of our mental health, don't buy cheap dress with the idea oh okay the seamstress can fix it quickly.

Look around on etsy or ask for offer from small - even one person - businesses. You will be surprised... For me it is driving me mad, how many awful quality clothes the people buy and think that we can do anything out of it.

Sentiment means more than price. Find something you love, be it from a second hand shop, online or even a regular dress shop. If it means the world to you, that's all that matters. It's amazing what you can find in the op-shops. A lot of bridal retailers will donate the out-of-season/off trend styles to places like Salvo's, Vinnie's, Lifeline etc. You can pick up a brand new gown for next to nothing, and still look as stunning as someone who has paid thousands. Good luck in your search, you'll find it when you least expect it... :))

[@rosestewart1606]

It doesn't matter how much you spend on a dress, even if you have to make it yourself. your wedding look is a total look and when you add the bouquet and hair and all, all that matters is that you feel comfortable in the dress. Most guests will only remember the colour of your dress. I went to a wedding where the bride had made her own dress from cotton using a pattern for a medieval costume. It was gorgeous. My sister in law had a 1920s style dress made just from plain satin and for her hair just had a few satin roses. So her and so sophisticated. just a tip...its easier to get a simpler dress to look great, like the cheapest one here. They seem to mess up the lace, or don't use enough, when they're trying to copy a really expensive dress for really cheap.

Alex..! I'm from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 Archie is the main reason why I'm watching your videos all day long in home quarantine 😅

[@faykguru]

I'd pick the last one. Elegant, and it looks gorgeous on you.

[@tattooedkittykat]

Alex when I click the link on the dress you loved the most it comes up as $437 US dollars not the $196. I'm wondering why that is? 🤔 Also! Can you do a video of more nontraditional wedding dress/attire? Maybe dresses with color or pantsuits etc etc

[@lilithspookypants7789]

Yasss!!!

[@TOPtierQueen]

Yes! A Black lace dress please!!!!! 🖤

[@abyk.r.7855]

Same, €414.00 showing for me. Good price for the dress if no alterations are needed.

[@lilliegreenlaw]

It was on sale when they sent it to her--it actually shows the original $437 price temporarily discounted in the vid. A pity, really.

[@tattooedkittykat]

@@lilliegreenlaw Ah okay! That makes more sense now. Thank you for the clarification!

[@tiggywinkle2610]

My favourite one was your favourite dress too. I thought it couldn't get better, then I realised it was a corset back. I LOVE IT!

[@Tallonwestly]

I was hoping you'd upload!! I need something positive and fun to take my mind off the world!❤

[@LolaKlein]

Your least favorite dress was the one that took my breath away! It was absolutely gorgeous, and it's not my style either. But it looked so classy and with perfect fit.

[@SamLovesMovies25]

The one that you really love, I **really** love the effect of the sequins on the second layer shimmering through! I personally wouldn't be comfortable with that deep plunge though since I'm bigger chested and prefer to be modest, but it is so gorgeous and I'm sure a skilled seamstress could maybe add something in there to cover that part up if you don't want that.

[@katiemh1202]

I wore a prom dress with a plunge like that and I’m relatively big chested, Fcup, and it wasn’t as revealing as you’d think. With the right bra it’s actually no bad but I’m sure a gifted and skilled seamstress could definitely fix it if you wanted them too :)

[@addiekerr7519]

Hi I absolutely love the one you said looked like your wedding dress!😍😍😍😍

[@SuperUberDae]

I love this, Alex you are so helpful to do this. So many of these websites show magnificent pictures but you just don't know what they will actually send you. Thank you for your diligence, very informative!

[@maggiekedves]

Just so you know many times those pictures are stolen from couture dress maker websites and the Chinese manufacturer just try to make a cheap copy of them that is why you see such a difference and also sometimes when you look at the reviews you even see that no 2 dress looks the same because different seamstresses make those clothes from whatever material they have and some knows sewing a lot better than others. It is a true gamble what you are getting...

[@Percy_Of_The_Sea]

I can't wait until I can marry my girlfriend. I love her so much and honestly believe that this is our next step. These dresses are all beautiful though I plan on wearing a black dress instead of a white one.

[@ElysiaNoir]

i wish y’all luck! 🥺

[@Percy_Of_The_Sea]

@@ElysiaNoir Thank you. 😊

[@michellelee8933]

Is your gf like, a white dress kinda girl? Because if you wear black and she wear white, damn, thatd be stunning

[@Percy_Of_The_Sea]

@@michellelee8933 We both actually came out as Trans shortly after I commented this but that had been the idea. Now we're planning a more witchy wedding called a Handfasting. I still want to wear darker colors but I'm totally open to him wearing which ever color he wants. Being able to experience this with someone else makes it easier.

[@michellelee8933]

@@Percy_Of_The_Sea whoa congrats on coming out! Anyway the witchy wedding sounds awesome, a themed wedding always sounds nicer and more fun isn't it

[@TangerineLou]

My cousin and his wife wore custom made sneakers on their wedding day. They had their new last name embroided on. It was such a great idea, it was so perfect! Definitely something that made sure everyone will remember that day :)

[@TangerineLou]

No, they just combined their existing last names and got a new one like that :-)

[@samieh7199]

I think the 8 kilos suits you well, honestly I think this is the best you’ve ever looked!!! Keep the kilos on!!

[@lornasmith2944]

Agree 👌🇨🇦

[@jessieclites9096]

I was so happy to see your new video! I've been dreading the quarantine because I'm really not able to do either of my jobs from home and my birthday is tomorrow, so I can't do anything to celebrate. So thank you for posting still, it definitely helps!

[@isawthesign4421]

Thank you for posting fun videos! They're saving my life! I get so bored sitting at home and you can only clean so much.

[@MacMiraa]

That second dress is amaaazing. I'd get married in that.

[@echo_creed]

I love the second to last dress. The lace on the bodice reminds me of feathers or frost. The shape & sparkle is perfect.

[@bethanyard9485]

I'm gonna wear my own hand sparkled white Crocs when I get married.

[@ericad3850]

That's awesome! Go for it!

[@melodymcswain4785]

Bethany Ard hell yeah😅🙌💜

[@mysticall680]

Woah! I can imagine them going awesome with a wedding dress! Gives a modern touch! Go for it!

[@lenacheney]

Crocs make me think of nurses and medical staff (before they got banned for safety reasons) no weddings. No offense but each their own!

[@bethanyard9485]

See when I was younger I always wanted to do hand bedazzled converse all stars, but that was the same dream many other people have done and I want to be somewhat original. My dress is also going to be white with black lace over the top. 😊 I know it isn't for everyone but it's what makes me and my babes happy 💕

[@nicolef9165]

The dress you thought was "dirty" was my favorite!

[@quitecontrary3790]

The thing that bothers me with the most with the second dress is when you twirl and the layers bunch together it turns randomly orange-brown. Looks dirty and wouldn't photograph well I don't think

[@sarasthoughts]

Oooh it's true I had not noticed that!

[@venusk7817]

That off the shoulder ball gown is GORGEOUS I’ve sold dresses with similar skirt designs worth THOUSANDS I’m blown away honestly it’s gorgeous I would buy it for my own renewal honestly

[@zank1ga359]

Great video! The organza at the top of the second dress has no trim because it is meant to appear skinned tone, not obvious that it is there (As it did, posted during the rack review). The "dirty" look is an off-white antique color. There's a lot of women who have little to no money for a wedding dress. They now have some options.

[@definitelynotashark1799]

I kept wondering what she complained about there. This type of lace is like a lace front on a wig, e.g. Not supposed to be "visible", and can even be trimmed if you want. It basically gives you the option of a neckline without actually being exposed.

[@zank1ga359]

​@@definitelynotashark1799 Exactly! She did change her mind after trying it on. It went from zero to a hero, real quick!!! LOL

[@ashleysawyer5414]

I'm glad your posting bc it makes something feel normal.

[@saneill17]

Lol I actually want a cheap engagement ring. I told my partner if he spends thousands on it I’ll be mad, because he could take me on holiday with that money haha. I’d much rather a trip than a ring lol

[@grandy2875]

I got my engagement ring from a home shopping network. I have a 3.54ct Diamonesque (lab-grown Diamond) Solitaire, designed by Charlie Lapson, the man who designed the crown for the last 4 or 5 Miss Universe contests. You don't have to spend a fortune to get something you love. Coloured stone rings are big at the moment too. Whatever makes You happy, after all, you are the one who will be wearing it for a long time... :))

[@sarasthoughts]

My boyfriend for our anniversary got me a diamond ring worth probably hundreds and we almost argued about it. I despise diamonds and worthless spending: it's much better to buy a pretty, cheap ring from a small business owner and spend that money on actually important things!

[@heather8374]

your initial reaction to the next to last one was legit the reaction you see on 'say yes to...' when the bride puts on the one she's gonna get.

[@Nyquil5]

The dresses all looked lovely on you. I've been married for going on 22 years, but I still love to look at wedding dresses.

[@imjayhime]

@24:55 MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE. All of the designer wedding dresses that I have saved on Pinterest have a similar design. I love the lace, length, chest area, back....😍😭 I really like that it’s asymmetrical too. It makes it look more natural, since nature isn’t “perfect”

[@tara1361]

I really thought the last dress looked amazing on your, it with an slight off shoulder adjustment would be wonderful

[@meatonthebone7203]

I’m late, but wanted to comment that I’m really grateful that you posted this given the timing. It sucks being stuck at home, but having a long and entertaining video really helps

[@lemondew8138]

My wedding dress was 99$ lol I tried several dresses of various prices but I fell in love with a dress from the clearance section that was sample size 2. I had to get it altered because im quite short, which I would have had to do regardless of the dress. Everyone was shocked! It also meant I had a bigger budget for flowers 😍 lol

[@Sims4creations22]

I see no point spending a bunch of money on a wedding dress so good for you I bet you looked amazing

[@mekamalice9698]

I think all the dresses were amazing for the price. Your two faves were the best. But I actually loved the pink dress as well and it looked like it was made for you. I know you felt insecure, but that is the most beautiful (other than your wedding pics) that I have ever seen you look. You looked like a model!

[@meinkanta]

Are the sleeves not meant to go off the shoulder hence why they’re sewn on like that?

[@katemckay6173]

Probably

[@abbey4136]

Thats what I thought too, especially because the photo on the site has them hanging down

[@sallyhittens6421]

They realise that later on the video

[@nachiarah]

@@katemckay6173 YESSS

[@RopafadzoMahaso]

In the second to last dress, I half expected Alex to say "Dan I wanna get married again but wear this" 😂😂

[@bevwood8210]

The first dress was beautiful on you, the last dress was stunning!

[@noelleperry1431]

second to last dress I actually have and I'm wearing on my wedding day xD

[@PowerToolsnPearls]

That belted dress with the illusion lace was absolutely to die for!

[@edgyedgelord477]

I really like the look you call 'dirty'. Because I like the vintage look it gives. I also hate the really white look on my skintone.
