Lady runs for her life after being told the dress she wanted to order would cost N400k (Photo)
A Nigerian lady has expressed shock after she made an attempt to place an order for a lovely dress and was told it would cost her about N400k.
The lady identified as @TheNicoleken on Twitter took to the micro blogging platform and shared screensots of her chat with the said fashion brand.
@TheNicoleken had taken to the fashion brand’s WhatsApp DM to make an enquiry about a dress she saw on the brand’s page and was told the fabrics go for N100k per yard while cost of production alone is N200k.
The brand however told her that the model used in the sample she saw is very slim, which implies she may be needing to spend N200k for 2 yards of the said fabrics.

My wife is a tailor and I don't think it's possible to use one yard to sew a cloth for an adult without mixing the material.
She's saying rubbish.

this is the style.
at most, the length is 34, her hip is probably 34 or few inches more, her boobs is 34 and her waist is a 24/26
take into consideration that the material can even be stretchy.. the length is 60.omo 1yard will be enough, there'll just be a lot of management. pic.twitter.com/0qSC92TeoK
