AN online shopper has gone viral after posting pictures of herself wearing “sweatshirt dress” which made her look like a “monk”
Paige Mahony, from Frimley, Surrey, bought the top from online retailers Boohoo.com last Friday.
She chose the £12 “High Neck Oversized Sweatshirt Dress” in ‘Camel’ colour, which manages to look rather snug on the model with the collar folded.
However, when the order actually arrived, Paige was surprised with what she had bought and how ridiculous it was.
She uploaded the picture of her and the modeled image for users to compare on Monday captioned with: “Boohoo have done me so dirty.”
The image shows Paige wearing the top but with the collar up as the material was so thin she was unable to fold it as it “doesn’t move.”
The camel top covers her body and is slightly hanging over arms unlike in the picture of the model where it is slightly loose on her body but just up to her wrist.
Her post has been liked over 30,000 times with nearly 4,000 people sharing it.
@GracieeKate wrote under Paige’s post: “Wearing something similar but mine looks ok.”
This prompted Paige to respond saying: “It’s 100% the material. It’s horrible thick stuff that doesn’t move.”
@18thommo said: “The material looks about 2 inches thick.” This prompted Paige to respond saying “it is.”

@AshleyLYates said: “It’s so bad. I got a playsuit from them and it looks so dirty.”

@_michellemann added: “Omg actual Pmsl she has been played.”
However, not everyone agreed with Paige and her complaint.
@shahnaz93 said: “Obviously you need to fold the collar down but it looks just like the picture?
“Not everything that looks good on the model will look as good on me or you in real life though.”
@damnnjodee added: “Roll the collar down and throw a nice little white belt and some cute clear heels and your ready.”
@x0RCR posted: “This would look better if you rolled the neck down.”
Speaking today Paige said: “I don’t really know what I was expecting but it wasn’t that. I bought it on Friday night for £12.”
