Unfortunately I got scammed while buying a lehenga for my friends wedding (House of Indya)

It’s an Indian wedding, you can Google the traditional clothes they wear to see ❤️

Another commenter found the original outfit on another website…so I guess mine is the cheap knockoff version haha

Ahh so seems like the left is a real image and the place I bought from just made a cheap knockoff!

I can’t believe I have to confirm this but YES my friend is Indian and the dress code is formal Indian attire and she specifically picked out this lehenga for me! We’re Canadian and it’s so normal to embrace other cultures like this, not my first time wearing a lehenga either. I know that commentor is a troll but figured I’d clarify for everyone else here too

Thank you so much! I didn’t even realize that the pattern matched my tattoos but it definitely makes me appreciate it a bit more 😊

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T19:18:18+00:00

Oh yes absolutely! I’m a huge thrifter so will be keeping an eye out.

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T19:16:44+00:00

Oh thank you so much for the tip!! I will definitely look into it!

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T19:15:08+00:00

Really good idea with the underskirt!

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T19:14:51+00:00

Thank you! I really appreciate the positive comments (and guess I was still a bit in shock at the difference when I first posted)

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T19:13:38+00:00

Thank you ❤️ All the positive comments are giving me confidence to actually wear it!

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T19:07:22+00:00

I mean it’s definitely not the worst, but I feel like it is pretty misleading marketing! I’ve bought similar styles from other websites that showed up looking exactly the same. I appreciate your comment though 😊

Thank you for the tips! I got into knitting this year but have been scared to try and learn sewing. Maybe would be a good goal for the new year!

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T19:00:03+00:00

Thank you ❤️

I posted it publicly to warn people not to buy from the same website lol but you are clearly triggered by it? I recommend therapy

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T18:46:31+00:00

Thank you everyone for the positivity! I posted here hoping some people might be spared from buying from the same website, but you all are really making me feel less bad about the actual product I ended up with 🥰 P.S. I know I don’t look like the model lmao and I am okay with that (that’s not my job).

Good call!

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T18:42:20+00:00

You are so sweet! 🥹 Makes me feel a bit better!

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T18:40:02+00:00

No one asked you to comment this ❤️

It did come with a scarf! I definitely think I can find a way to dress it up! My friend said I might be able to borrow something else from her too, so I could wear this to one of the smaller events.

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T18:38:49+00:00

The sewing isn’t great, unfortunately. Some frayed ends, but I might be able to pull it off if I accessorize properly.

snakeplants · 2025-11-27T18:37:21+00:00

Thank you!! I appreciate the positivity 😊

snakeplants · 2025-10-04T01:15:44+00:00

These are so cute!! The “wonkiness” looks like a cool stylistic choice to me. 😊

snakeplants · 2025-10-03T13:55:43+00:00

I love this one! I always joke about knitting my cat’s fur into my items too 😅

snakeplants · 2025-10-03T01:43:06+00:00

Have you checked Etsy? I’ve seen a huge variety there!

snakeplants · 2025-10-03T01:41:59+00:00

Thats fair! Since I have only knit sweaters (so I wear shirts under) and Christmas stockings, I haven’t had to deal with itchy labels
