    Thank you for this. I was about to buy a dress from them seeing that the pieces they described are cotton or silk. It’s disappointing to know that even if you’re spending over $100 on a dress that you’re still buying polyester. Smh

    • @wangjenniferr
      @wangjenniferr  ปีที่แล้ว +142

      Polyester is one of the least expensive fabrics to make but not all polyester is the same! That being said, house of CB is not using premium polyester from what I can tell 😅

    • @stephhhie17
      @stephhhie17 ปีที่แล้ว +42

      ​@@samiesamantha1601The differences are mostly the same as why you can have $5/yard cotton vs $20/yard cotton or $20/yard silk vs $60/yard silk. With natural fabrics, short staple fibers will be cheaper than longer staple (or in the case of silk, continous filament reeled from whole cocoons is higher cost than spun silk from shorter fibers from broken cocoons). With polyester there is no "natural" staple length, but as with silk, yarns made with shorter bits of polyester spun together are be cheaper and weaker compared to continuous filament. Then there is thread count/density of fabric, fineness/evenness of yarns, is extra yarn or fabric processing done to impart certain qualities, is the fabric yarn dyed or piece dyed, etc. And then just things like quality control, is the color consistent, are they checking for holes or defects, even automatic industrial looms and knitting machines are not perfect.
      Although something important to note is that with clothing, the fabric and other materials are usually not the main manufacturing cost component, it's labor, even for mass-produced fast fashion in a country with cheap labor. (And then the mfg. cost is only part of the total cost and the total cost is only part of the price you buy it for) so using fabric price to compare garment price often doesn't tell you very much.

    I remember when I used to buy from them regularly 3 years ago, they actually used to say the fabric content on the website as well! I don't really understand why now they feel the need to omit it...must be due to the increase in their prices! I remember a standard corset top would cost 78€, now it's 117€! It's all just greed to be frank.

    What we've learned: House of CB does NOT tell you what dresses are made of and sometimes will even lie:
    Milena dress: CB website says “Made from stretch weighted crepe” which isn’t a material, it’s just appearance, but tags say 92% Polyester 8% Elastane, Lining 95% Polyester 5% Elastane
    Tallulah dress: CB website says “Rayon Lining (100% Rayon)”, but tags say: Lining 2 51% Polyester 49% Viscose
    Christa dress: CB website says “Georgette, Dry Light Satin” which is again appearance, NOT composition but tags say 100% Polyester
    Chiccca top: CB website says “made with linen”, but tags say: 82% Lyocell 18% Linen, Lining 51% Polyester 41% Viscose
    Plus boning is also not capped in their corsets.

    Do you think garment makers say "Dry clean only" even if that's not completely true to protect against people returning garments when they don't wash well, probably because they no longer prewash and preshrink fabrics before the garment is made? When I was young, it was important that cotton fabrics be pre-shrunk before the garment was made and I don't think garment makers do that anymore, so instead of buying 100% cotton, I fear that after one washing, even if I hang it to dry, it will become misshapen.

  • @patriciapimenta4319
    @patriciapimenta4319 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You probably dont undertand about fabrics composition, because cotton is a fiber, and its quality will depend on the thread count, which can be very expensive due to a longer manufacting process.
    Fabrics are composed of fibers - cotton and polyester are not fabrics - they are fibers used to make a fabric, and each bleand will have a different name, for example:

    Crepe de Chine: 100% Silk
    Georgette Crepe: 100% Polyester
    atte Crepe: Polyester, Rayon, or a blend
    Wool Crepe: Can be 60% Wool / 38% Rayon / 2% Lycra
    Polyester Crepe: 100% Polyester
    Canton Crepe: Can be made from various natural or synthetic fibers, such as Silk, Wool, Cotton, Rayon, Polyester, or Nylon
    Blends that have polyesters are cheaper because the manucturing process is much easier - the molding, cutting, shapeing of the fabric and then the actual sewing of the item through the different industrial sewing machines is much easier, much easier! Polyester also is more maleable and provides a wider range of cuts and designs for clothes, it also has more durability, colour retention and wrinkle resistance compared to other fibers.

    I'm 100% sure House of CB drop ship from China because I've seen their designs all over AliExpress. I've seen people wearing the AliExpress "dupes" and they're completely indistinguishable from the House of CB ones. Same stitching, material, lay, print, everything.

    What is up with that cheap, thin satinny material that wrinkles too easily being passed off as a wearable fabric? I see this all the time now and I feel like they are getting over on people who don’t know what is a decent fabric or not. Even in the realm of synthetic that stuff looks terrible.

    Take a look at their glass door reviews. I’m one of ma y where they have gotten to do a design brief for a designer role they had up only for them to steal those designs after not giving us the role. Awful brand. Awful Uk fashion

    I feel it’s a bit unfair to bash a brand because they use polyester. Making clothes goes way beyond the fabric used and also includes the construction and detail of the garment, amount of time it takes to make it etc. and they also need to pay their factory workers fair wages. I agree with you that they definitely need to be transparent on their website about the fabric composition but a lot of their pieces actually fit nice and they use boning a lot and asymmetric cuts which really complicates the sewing process. Even the price of polyester and other fabrics has increased significantly since vivid, global inflation and Russia Ukraine war.
    I don’t even buy from them cause they don’t cater well to girls with big boobs. But I’m not gonna bash them and say their bad for charging what they do. I have a business and it’s sad to see someone come for other peoples businesses.

      Btw I say it fits nice because before I added weight it fit me quite well and I’ve seen videos of other girls who look bong in their clothes. I feel not every brand needs to cater to every single body type and that’s ok. Just find the ones that work for you. At the end of the day it’s a business so from a profit perspective it makes zero sense to try and cater to everyone. They have a specific customer they cater to. I just don’t bother shopping there. But I won’t bash them just cause of that though

      I think the problem is that people are becoming desensitized to buys more and more plastic and that’s not ok. If capitalism is all is cracked up to be then businesses should fail if they don’t put out quality products but that’s not what’s happening people need to be aware or what they’re buying and that needs to be honest

    I’m so excited for your TH-cam channel! I enjoyed this video, I’ve always considered ordering from this company and it’s disappointing to see that the clothes are not worth it. I’m glad I know this now! Thank you 🫶🏼
