OH SHEIT
I bought a dress from Shein… but when I put it on I saw how indecent it looked
HAUL IN
I’m plus-size – I tried Shein’s extended sizes & looked stuffed into an item
One person called the pictures an “embarrassment”, and another quipped: “Shame on Shein.”
Another wrote: “Instead of finding a fat model they resulted to just being like “look how much sh*t we can fit in these tights!!”
And one user jabbed: “They can easily find a plus size models who can do justice to their plus size products, they just need to look.”
Others had a hard time believing the pictures were real, one said: “This has to be fake.”

But others jumped in to defend the retailer, insisting that people were overreacting and missing the point of the pictures.
“I mean, yes, this is ridiculous, but I’m pretty sure the intention was to show how much the tights can stretch without ripping rather than showing what they would look like on a plus sized model,” someone wrote.
A second agreed: “Or you could look at the image as a clear advertisement for tear free, stretchy tights.”
The Sun has contacted Shein for comment.
