Student's hilarious reaction to disastrous online dress delivery goes viral

A student's reaction to an online shopping disaster has gone viral after the dress she ordered left nothing to the imagination.

Jodie Howard, 18, posted a video of the ordeal on social media after buying the dress for £28.

Ms Howard, who is currently studying Health and Fitness, said she shops online on occasion but added this is the first time a purchase had arrived like this.

She told Dublin Live: "I shop online occasionally, this is the first time I've ever received something that was completely different to the photo online.

"It came up as an ad on Instagram and I clicked on to the page and went from there."

The student said she received a 'red flag' when her bank sent her a message concerning the authenticity of the website she was ordering from.

However, she decided to continue with the purchase and two weeks later the delivery came through.

Jodie explained: "I was excited when it came but was a bit shocked when I seen the size of the package.

"What came out was even worse. I found it quite funny and it was a bit difficult to get on as it was so small.

"My mam and I had a laugh trying to get it on and found it hilarious when I finally got it on as it was completely see through."

The dress, from a website called Lux Noire, set Jodie back around €33 including shipping.

Her Twitter post has picked up a lot of attention with hundreds of users retweeting and favouriting the tweet.
