>>445443I've tried some of Shein and Romwe "goff" branded stuff and honestly no, like another anon said they just feel too costumey in feeling and in look. I especially hate the lace pattern they use because it looks so cheap and tacky looking. Whenever I get something from Shein and Romwe, I only get basic looking things that I feel may be decent that I can pair with my thrifted stuff and doing this, I have definitely gotten a few duds but I've also got a handful of decent things as well, some that I've had to 4+ years and seems to have held up okay.
But overall my sentiments align with
>>445483 where I think a lot of the stuff look too tacky and costumey for me to fele to ever wear them which is funny because as someone who likes the romantic look, I've fallen for the trap of trying some of their pieces that look romantic only to not feel confident or comfortable in it at all and I'd rather just thrift for brands like Mrobid Threads to get some more romantic pieces.
>>445497Yep shopping in the lignerie section of a thrift store, I've been able to find all kinds of neat pieces that I could either wear on their own or dyr and customize. It's just annoying that prices in my area have gone up. I saw a black sheer nightie dress that back then would cost 3-5 USD but now they're charging it for 10-15 USD, it's insane kek.
