Famous designers have repeatedly accused the Zara brand of plagiarism, mass-market brand famously copies of their collections with the latest hits. Well Aliekspress does not sleep, he in turn copies the things Zara and sells them in two, and sometimes three times cheaper.
I decided to conduct an experiment. Ordered on AliExpress is the most popular things Zara, which sported known it-girls this year.
Let's see what came of it?
Midi skirt of satin ala Zara
Skirt of satin - a hit of the year! At Zara they have been presented in pink, yellow, black and white. I tried on in pink and my disappointment knew no bounds, terrible quality 2800 p. Tightening appear on only one kind of sharp nail. Impressed even wrote an article: Skirt from Zara, which I will never buy.
On Aliekspress found similar for 1200, honestly I ordered for the sake of the experiment, and advance idea that wearing it would not be possible. But I was expecting a pleasant surprise, a skirt come in quality at times better than in Zara! Dense fabric to leave a puff, you need to work hard, all the seams are smooth, not translucent, the feet do not stick. Delivery - 7 days! The case where the copy better than the original.
In the autumn I plan to wear it like this:
Sharing link can order the skirt here. On its parameters 71, ON 94, picked up 36 size, It went perfectly. Belt with an elastic band.
The same pink jacket
It seems, this jacket has become a favorite thing almost every fashion blogger. Even Zaklina Pisano, known as the most stylish grandmother Instagram, was spotted in the jacket, though she prefers luxury.
Zara selling it for 7000 with a penny, Ali for 1526. The original jacket to try it was not possible, so I can not judge objectively. But my Chinese jacket is great. Price and quality are above all praise. Looks expensive, beautiful buttons, the lining is not rustling. Composition: 55% cotton, 45% polyester. I picked up at a rate of M (OG 82, 71, OB 94), he told me a little longer, but not critical, I think S would be nice, too, I sat down. Jeans and white shorts also with Ali, the quality is excellent.
I very much want to hear your opinion, the images look cheap? In my opinion quite well, hence the question: does it make sense to overpay for the brand? I know exactly where I put the money saved.
I leave references on things:
Satin skirtPrice 940
pink jacket, The price in 1527
White jeans, Ordered S (Normal jeans), the price of 1215
Shorts, Price 877, order of L, but slightly bolshevat, M sat would be better
