Awesome thread! : D

I'll be posting some pics of my Zipia purchases x)

The freesize stuff usually fits me pretty well, but I'm shorter than the super-tall models on the sites Dx so often the longer clothes almost reach mah knees... xDD I don't mind it too much though.

[Guest SoloViet916]

a great idea indeed!

i'm thinking of buying clothing online.

this would be very helpful.

[Guest yansi]

anyone ever bought blazers from zipia before? i wanted to get a couple, but i'm afraid they won't fit because all of the tops i got from zipia were too big for me i weight 105 lbs, and i usually wear small.

[Guest Lucy]

my body shape is whack for clothes from CCT or anything like that. lol...

so whenever i will, i'll post up some stuff from zipia and whatnot<3

love this thread ^^

[Guest losi.lee]

extremely helpful thread!

[Guest .Demy]

Has anybody bought those jean-leggings from Zipia.com yet?

I was considering getting them, but I wasn't completely convinced. :/

I actually like this item. Clothes i get online are usually disappointing, it looks exactly like the picture, stretchy, form fitting, dark, doesn't feel completely cheap.

There are some downsides though. There are hidden buttons on the inside that are supposed to pull the cardigan closer, but for me is still quite loose uptop. The school badge is removable, though when put on looks rather flimsy, the buttons are made out of plastic and can only really be buttoned on one side.

I'll update this post with my other purchases later.

[Guest mystique]

I've tried ordering from CCT, je551, causeway and their quality of items and service is really poor compared to gmarket and zipia <3 x]

Clothes from taiwanese sites dont really fit me too well, maybe coz the models are small.. but i did like a shirt i got from amyeshop...

Store: 天藍小舖

Rating and other comments: came exactly like the picture on the site :] quality is very good + price was cheap compared to other sites, 10/10

Store: Yesstyle

Item size: S

Height: 170cm

Weight: 55kg

Rating and other comments: Measurements given on the site are 2-3cm off (longer), quality is good but too expensive - 8/10. Gmarket didnt sell this anymore at that time T_T but one of my fav. jackets~ =D

Store: global gmarket

Item size: 28

Height: 170cm

Weight: 55kg

Rating and other comments: True to size, first I was worried the material was going to be too thick but it turned out fine (: just like the picture also and this seller shipped to gmarket fast *thumbs up* and price was reasonable 10/10

Might take more later [=

[Guest rit_chan]

I have that exact sweater - but purchased from this ebay seller (which is the best Asian seller I've come across): http://stores.ebay.com.au/cutie-little-mouse. I've found that this seller is pretty true to size - but like every online shop, you have to research everything and be really particular about sizing. The thing I always do is keep a tape measure near my computer at all times just to measure.

http://stores.ebay.com.au/aamandadressshop - the sizing for this shop is a bit on the small side, and the quality's pretty okay considering what you pay for.

http://stores.ebay.com.au/Charmmyland - same with this store. Cheap but you get what you pay for, quality-wise. I bought a coat that looked super thick in the model picture, and while the style design was more or less exact, the material they used was pretty cheap. Lining and everything though - it's wearable but not amazing. I think after years of working in retail, my standards are pretty damn high!

This thread is really great btw

Does anyone have any Asian shops they trust and wouldn't mind sharing? thanks!

[Guest mysiwon]

^ go to : http://www.soompi.com/forums/index.php?sho...t=0&start=0

I was considering getting them, but I wasn't completely convinced. :/

I have denim leggings but from other suppliers and they're really cute =D I'm sure zipia's will be great since the quality is nice.

I got it on yahoo auctions.

its my first time buying from zipia and i am impressed. i thought it would be a lot worse. its not that bad, the material is a little too thin for my liking but its still really nice... i guess it would look weird if it were thicker. also it was a little too long for me; it went a little past my butt; i thought it would go to mid-butt. the shoulders were a little too big too by a few CMs.

original:

my picture; i dont think i have one of my wearing it.

the writing was ... thick? it was sorta threeD looking ish? it wasnt really thick or thin. it was sorta like a fall hoody-ish? hard to explain. the strings were really long (like in photo) i didnt know what to do with it; my friend told me to cut it but i didnt and just tucked it inside.

original:

my picture: (sorry i dont have photos of me wearing this either)

hope i helped??

i got this for my sister

Item size: freesize

Weight117

Rating and other comments: I'm not a thin as the models so it wasn't loose on me, but it was still a really nice fit. The material was nice. I liked it. 10/10

excuse my lame-o pose

Store: Survey, JE551

Item:

Item size: M

Rating and other comments: sewing was pretty poor, and fabric, the whole dress seemed kinda flimsy, but wearable. the bottom was real see through so i needed another slip under the dress. I really loved the design and color but the black strip in the middle rose up too high towards my boobs. I think it would of been cuter if they moved it down a bit. 7/10

[x1buckybabey]

I love this thread! I'll be sure to post ALOT of mine soon ;D

[x1buckybabey]

Hey! I came back with some photos!

Store: Taiwan Auction Site Venji

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1?

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 6/10 The tank top it's a bit tight around the chest around and its hard to breath in. It's actually bigger but I had to pin it to make it look like my size. The inner top is normal and I don't mind that. Overall it's cute but i just wished the tank top would've been better.

Store: Zipia

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight95

Rating and other comments: 8/10 I really like the top. The quality is great and everything. At first the size was bigger but once i've washed it a few times, the top fitted me. I really like it! Sorry I dont have the original photo since this was like...a year ago?

Store: Je551

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 7/10 I really like this hoodie. The material is poor quality though. Everytime I wash it, hair attracts it. Mostly hair though. Also its a bit thin. More suitable for spring/summer. Other than that I really like it! Will try to find the original photo!

Store: Wonderland Taiwan Auction Site

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 9/10 I really like this. I haven't worn this before, like out. Only tried it on couple of times. I'm debating on weither or not to keep it. But if you're interested, its in my shop! (check signature). I really like the quality. The only thing I don't like about it, is maybe the suspender. I think it would've been better if it's made of a better material.

Store: Wonderland Taiwan Auction Site

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 6/10 I think the material is pretty thin, more suitable for spring/summer. I thought it would've been thicker because the photo looked thick. It turned out to be to long for me so it didn't look so great on me. Also the same made my figure look to...straight. I love the design and the colors of it. Also the furballs are not equally length so that irritates me too ><" I dont have the original photo but it was bought recently.

Store: Tokyo Fashion Taiwan Auction Site

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 8/10 I like the inside tee, it's really cute. My only concern is the vest. I thought it would've been a better quality like a jean material, but it turned out to be cotton material. Also it turned out small than the model photo. But overall, I think i can work with it

Store: Tokyo Fashion Co. Taiwan Auction Site

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 10/10. I really love this. It's super adorable. The material is not the highest quality but its better than usual CCT/Je551 material. The top turned out to look alot like the image!

Store: Tokyo Fashion Taiwan Auction Site

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 8/10. The quality of this is excellent. I didn't notice any flaws in it. The inside it like a nice satin/polyester material and the outside is cotton. The bubble tank turned out alot like the image. The only concern I didn't like was I thought it would've been shorter. Other than that, I really like it, but I'm putting it up for sale in my shop currently.

Store: JJS Taiwan Auction Site

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 7/10. I think this is cute. The top is a bit long, and the quality is alright. I was wishing it to be a better quality. The vest, I have a problem with it, there is a part that's connected and its kind of irritating if you just wanted it hanging on the side. LOLLL. Just found out thats for the back! harhar. ;D The vest turned out alot different from the image ><" I haven't worn this out, just looking for the occasion!

Store: IMDA (ulzzang) Website

Item size: Small?

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 8/10. I really like this top. I love the quality and the fit of it. The only thing I didn't like was how it had random words at the back and it didn't make sense. I'm afraid of going in public showing the back so I always wear a sweater as well. I dont have the original image since I purchased this a year ago, two ago.

Store: Je551

Item size: Freesize

Height: 5"1

Weight 95

Rating and other comments: 8/10 I thought this would be more of a loose hoodie rather than a fitted one. Also the material is pretty thin but its still great quality considering all the other Je551 material. I found it pretty long but that was my fault for not examining the models image. (I dont have the original model photo)

Store: Blythe Zoo Taiwan Auction Site

Rating and other comments: 9/10 I love this. It's a nice thin material and its loose. It can also be worn as an off the shoulder top. I find it close to looking like a American Apparel Style Tshirt.

I have more but will post them another time ;D
