Please don't let all these negative reviews dissuade you from buying from this site. I ordered 2 items from them on the 21 st of June and they arrived on the 27th completely fine and exactly as described and pictured on the site. I was really impressed that they even had the option to ship from a US warehouse. The clothes arrived free of stains, rips or popped seams and the over all quality can be compared to that of Forever 21. Definitely worth the $10.00 paid for the pants and the $6.75 paid for the hoodie. I have included a link to a photo comparison to really give readers a concrete idea of what I'm talking about.
I feel that the numerous issues that so many have experienced largely stem from the buyer's inexperience with international vendors. China is known for creating cheap replicas of popular fashions. Online stores like Wholesale dress are simply selling these replicas from their warehouses. They can't be directly compared to the online stores found in one's native country (ie, Karmaloop, Asos) so one must enter a purchase knowing that some assumed standards may not be met.
Here are a few guidelines that I think will make purchasing from whole sale dress (as well as other international online stores) much less frustrating.
A) Use a measuring tape. Measure your self and compare those numbers to the dimensions given on the web site. If you're ordering from a American/European country, keep in mind that no only are these clothes extremely cheap, but they are tailored for a smaller Asian frame so you will most likely have to order a size OR 2 up.
B) Keep your first purchase small and keep in mind that you get what you pay for. As a discerning online buyer I really can't imagine why someone would throw $400 at a website that they've never ordered from. I also can't understand why someone would be angry when the color of a 4 dollar shirt is one shade off. Keep in mind the unpredictability of overseas shipping and air mail. These products are extremely cheap so just start low, test the reliability and go from there.
C) Be patient. These items are being shipped from and where they are being shipped to. I ordered from the US and luckily Whole sale dress has a ware house stationed in NY. My shipping took a week but that is NOT the norm with international sellers. I've ordered products from YesSyle (who only ship from overseas) and my items have taken up to 7 weeks to arrive. That is VERY typical and is in no way an indicator of shady dealings. It is also normal to be given a tracking number that is virtually useless. Once again this isn't a sign of a scam but more byproduct of shipping services that aren't american or European based.
