    I saw this picture a few months ago on Reddit, and just stumbled across it again. Ordering your dress from China is a risky move; sometimes it'll be perfect, but sometimes.... it's not.

    even tried battering them to see if they could get those seams straight
    They spent the next two years locked in a cramped room making clothes for a small garment factory with no wages.
    "We started at 6am and finished work at midnight," he said. "If we made a mistake making the clothes they would beat us with a stick."
