A woman has highlighted the perils of online shopping after her $115 dress left her breasts completely exposed.

Courtney Henderson from Newcastle, England, tried on the garment from online retailer Dressmezee, only to find it didn’t quite fit as expected.

The sales agent had bought the outfit for her birthday night out but was left red-faced by the X-rated garment.

The caption on the photo reads: “What a brilliant fit. Definitely worth the keep and £65 ($115) spent.”

Ms Henderson took to social media to share the fashion faux-pas, writing: “Dressmezee sorted me right out with this little belter, fits like a dream.”

Her tweet, which has since had over 31,000 likes, has had social media users in stitches.

“Courtney hahaha I’m creasing,” one user wrote.

“I just spat coffee out everywhere. I am in f***ing stitches,” another added.

While a third replied: “I mean it’s a definite look.”

Ms Henderson said the dress had been designed for a different body type.

“To be completely honest, there’s not that much to say about it,” she said.

“Apart from ordering a dress which clearly is made for the smaller-breasted in society, which most dresses are these days.”

A spokesperson for Dressmezee told The Sun that the dress has “continuously been one of our bestsellers”.

“If you check out our tagged images on Instagram you will see we have had many customers who have worn the dress and have been super happy with it,” they said.

“We can only apologise that the dress was not suitable for the customer. We do offer a size chart so we can ensure we are as accurate as we can possibly be.”

Due to the “various shapes and sizes” of customers, Dressmezee said it was “unlikely that every garment will fit every individual” so it had a “very fair 14-day return policy” as a result.

“Of course not all poor fittings generate as much publicity as Courtney’s, so as a gesture of goodwill and thanks for all the extra publicity, in addition to her refund we’re happy to offer 25 per cent off her next purchase,” they said.
