i recently ordered a swimsuit from lalele.co with relatively high hopes and honestly was quite disappointed.
for reference im not speaking on wait times, i couldn't care less about the set back she is a one woman team. what got me about the whole company is that i followed her personal and business media accounts and 90% of her online presence was nothing to do with company and felt like the production was being put off like it could wait. now undoubtedly it could be because it mostly was her personal account but she tends to interlink the 2 frequently. the public response got better with time and she did catch up on any loose ends i feel as well as orders.
overall this kinda made me question the reliability of the company but it kinda solidified it for me when i received my order. i historically fit into a large in all of my clothes, top, bottoms the whole 9 yards. my order consisted of 3 pieces, the daisy halter top, daisy bottoms and the daisy skirt. i specifically ordered an xl because i do have a larger chest so i assumed the idea would be to make the cup fabric larger and not the ties in the back. i was wrong. the fabric on the bottoms was sewn with a lapse so the inner cover layer shows on the outside and looks like i flipped them. i tried to maneuver it and it just wouldn't give. even is that had worked both the bottoms and skirt were unnecessarily tight, not even like a normal good swimsuit tight just flat out sized like i ordered mediums.
im sure if this is seen there will be concerns such as maybe ive grown out of a large, however every pair of xl bottoms i've ordered in my life fall right off me. i can fit into non-stretchy tops sized small. is womens sizing at fault or am i idiotic for ordering from someone whose from cali and simultaneously asian as they tend to enforce a higher standard of size. i just feel like so many things went wrong and maybe i didnt do much research but ill be glad to inform others.
key points: do your research, size up (no matter who you are, maybe even by 2x), maybe wait for the company to grow (and mature). idk maybe im crazy but ik was insanely excited for this and was met with straight up disappointment. oh also the fabric on the inside of my top and bottoms are 2 different blues so that really ties it all together.
thanks for reading my rant ill provide pictures later if this even gets any traction.
