I ordered the viral Cider dress everyone’s been raving about – it's so flattering and a total steal too | The Sun

A FASHIONISTA was stunned after trying on the knitted Cider dress that's gone viral on social media.

TikTok has become all the rage for those looking for trendy garments on a budget – and one of those who gave the popular app a go was style fan Lucy Appleton (@lucyappleton21).


This time, wanting to replenish her wardrobe, the stunning fashionista nabbed a figure-hugging dress that's perfect for in-between seasons.

The midi dress, which is currently on sale for £27.80, comes in two different colours – grey and black, the latter of which Lucy had picked.

The best part? The brand Cider has also launched an extensive sizing for the knitted garment – it will fit anyone from XS to 4XL.

Designed with a sexy high slit, the item can be either dressed up or down.

If you want a more casual look that will also keep you warm, fashion enthusiasts can pair it with the long-sleeve crop top that comes with the dress.

And the numbers speak for themselves – according to the site, the dress has been sold close to a whopping 19k times, receiving an impressive 4.7/5 star rating.

One happy customer penned: ''Stunning dress. Stretchy and so soft.

''Bought a size 2XL as I'm pregnant and in love. The cardie goes with everything too.''

A third added: ''The material is so thick and it's warm and soft. Not something I would normally wear but I'm obsessed.''

Lucy was just as amazed by the bargain deal, urging fashion fans to not sleep on the sale.

''NOOO! I can’t cope! You guys have to get this.''

However, when it comes to online shopping, not everyone's had the best experience – one woman was left looking like a Christmas tree after her Shein haul went horribly wrong.

Looking for new garments, Brittini Rae (@heybrittinirae) decided to have a look on Shein when she stumbled across a cosy lounge set in khaki.

The set – comfy shorts and a knitted long-sleeve top – was on sale and retailed for just under £15.

The deal was too good to miss, and the mum immediately bagged the items.

But upon trying them on, the excitement vanished in seconds, as the bottoms were longer than originally planned and the top was not much more flattering either.

''I look like a Christmas tree,'' Brittini quickly noted uploading a clip of the unsuccessful try-on haul.

Fortunately, it seems that she has learnt from her mistakes, as she later revealed the two-piece had no reviews.

''I was shocked by not looking like the girl in the photo with it on,'' the fashion-loving mum added.

With more than a whopping 1.5million views, the clip has since taken the internet by storm, leaving people in hysterics.

But whilst many like Brittini found the situation amusing, plenty of social media users said the khaki set looked good on her.

''I like the top! I would just wear it with tighter fitting shorts!'' wrote one person.

Another agreed, adding: ''I really like it! It looks cute on you.''

Some also took to comments to explain why this might've happened, with people claiming there's a trick the industry uses at photoshoots.

''I’ve worked on set for clothing photography, it’s all clamped up in the back to fit the model perfectly. It’s all a lie!'' someone penned.

''They posed her at an angle that makes it look less shapeless. If you do the same pose, it’ll work better,'' a fourth noted.
