    it's quite obvious and well known that it is impossible to make a wedding dress that cheap without exploiting someone - usually children in a sweat shop. ☹️ I would not be happy knowing that i was possibly supporting child slave labour just to get a cheap wedding dress. I think people should seriously consider this when looking at these ebay shops. If it seems too good to be true then it probably is.

    Sorry to Hijack LJo

    HeatherJade:

    You do realise that the majority of wedding dresses are made in china anyway dont you? so therefore, most likely by the same people who make the cheap ones.

    Also -the majority of the high street shops use child labour to create the clothes that we wear day to day.

    In fact places like River Island get their clothes from the same factory in China (using slave labour no doubt) as Primark - and people are always talking about how Primark use child slaves to create the clothes... Just putting it out there!!

    Yeah sorry about the hijack just want people to make informed decisions. large corporate companies like primark and nike can no longer get away with these methods of production, but the smaller sellers like the ones on ebay slip under the radar, i just think if we know that this is going on, we shouldn't support the sellers directly, but of course it's your choice!...... will drop this subject on this post now.
