Woman shares epic bra fail after £1.99 plastic design squashes her nipples and snaps off in under a minute
IF there's one thing we've learnt from all our years of shopping online, it's that bras are one thing you're much better off trying on in person.
But while we've all been guilty of squeezing ourselves into a hugely impractical lacy number simply because it was half price in the sale, one woman took matters to all new extremes when she bought a £1.99 "death trap" of a plastic bra online.
And needless to say, the experience did not go well for her.
Sharing her epic and hilarious bra fail on Reddit, user RhaellaRae revealed that she purchased the see-through plastic bra for only £1.99 on the bargain shopping app Wish.
After another user posted a photo of the questionable underwear on the , the shopper replied: "So I bought this. Figured I'd take one for the team.
"It lasted 30 seconds but it squashed my nipples and probably broke a rib in the process. My nips looked so sad behind that cheap plastic."
Admittedly, most people (and by that we mean festival-goers) choose to cover their modesty with either some glitter or another lacy bra underneath.
However, this shopper tried to wear the undergarment as an actual bra and was furious when the "s***y plastic" cups and "pingy death trap" straps broke in under a minute.
She added: "It was a wild ride and I hated it."
That said, at least she only spent £1.99 on her fashion fail.

Amazingly, the see-through bra has actually sold out on Wish's website and app.
Although the product description promises to put "your body in a totally relaxed status" (???) and have an "ultra smooth touch feeling", the customer reviews say otherwise.
One shopper raged: "It was hard plastic and weird on my boobs. Waste of money. Would not buy."
Another added: "I hate it. It feel like a plastic water bottle and it's too small."
Meanwhile, an experienced Wish shopper wrote: "I love to order from Wish but this is the worst item I have received."
