‘It looks like bins bags sewn together’ people yell as bride tries to flog crumpled wedding dress for £150
EVERY woman wants to look beautiful on their big day and often brides-to-be will spend months finding their dream dress.
One woman has been brutally trolled after trying to sell her wedding dress, however, with people saying that the pre-loved gown looks like it was made from bin bags.

Some compared the dress to DIY projects you’d do as a kidFacebook/that’s it, I’m wedding shaming
While reselling your clothes can be a great side hustle, we wonder if the bride received the full £148 ($185) she asked for in exchange for the second-hand dress – especially with reactions like these.
Initially uploaded to Facebook Marketplace, the photos showed a satin gown with fitted bodice and delicate silver applique scattered throughout the ruffles.
Though the dress should have been a crowd pleaser, it had a fishtail train that had been gathered in several places to create a puffy effect.
To make matters even worse, it was obvious that the dress had been in storage as it was badly wrinkled – making it look even more unflattering from the back.
The dress was later shared in the That’s it, I’m wedding shaming group and has quickly gone viral with members.
Sharing the photo in the Facebook group, the original poster wrote: “Looks like a pile of trash bags sewn together.”
Unfortunately for the newlywed, others felt the same.
As the group reacted to the rumpled gown, one user even joked: “It’s just a series of pleated trash bags stapled together, you can’t fool me.”
Many agreed that it looked like a DIY project rather than an expensive dress, with another adding: “It looks like you just rolled out of the bed with the duvet on and glued some glitter on it.”
Some even likened it to a craft you would do in primary school.
A third wrote: “In middle school we did a thing where we ripped old white sheets and dressed someone as a mummy for a Halloween show and yea. Looked the same.”
To which another cheekily replied: “Don’t demean yourself like that, I’m sure the mummy outfit looked much better than this.”
If that wasn’t scary enough, there were some in the group that had tried on similar dresses before rejecting them in favour of a simpler look.
Recalling the dated look, a fourth said: “Oh, gawd, I remember that style. ‘For the fairy-tale princess’ is how one boutique described it. Tried it on once and never looked at another style like that again.”

While the dress was probably made in the noughties, other users said it looked similar to nostalgic ‘meringue’ gowns from the Eighties.
However, there were some in the group that argued that the wedding gown wasn’t so bad.
“I feel like this group ruined me. I saw it and was like, “oh it’s not that bad. There’s no flags or Twilight references on it!”
We are slightly worried that this is the standard in group and wonder what other gowns we’ve missed.

Top Wedding Trends of 2024
Sophie Creed, bridal designer and founder of bridal brand e&w Couture has shared this year’s wedding trends.
Personal, personal, personal
Brides are leaning towards modern minimalism with lots of personal touches that show off their relationship as a couple for an overall wedding theme.
Sustainability is also a huge wedding trend, with brides opting for more locally sourced and in-season florals and food.
Sailing into the sunset
There’s a rise in bold sunset colours like pinks, corals, reds and yellows when it comes to colour schemes. Big bold bouquets and tonal bridesmaids are coming in to focus.
Fun-shoes and statement scrunchies
A fun shoe is always top of the list for brides this year, followed closely this year by a matching hair accessory to their dress such as a large statement bow or scrunchies.
Pockets are in!
Modern, flattering silhouettes with bold fabric choices are 2024’s wedding dress trend.
Brides also love a fuller skirt (with pockets), interesting back details and sophisticated plunging necklines.
Sleeves have been huge for us this season but nothing too fitted, instead opting for romantic billowing sleeves.
