A Huge Disappointment: The Play Today School Blouse Fell Apart on the First Day

summarizeEditor's Summary

I've been buying school uniforms from Play Today for years, but this time I'm seriously let down. The new blouse literally started to unravel after just one day - before I even got a chance to wash it. My daughter loved the style, but the thin fabric just couldn't handle the wear and tear. I ordered it on Wish with a discount, but it's not exactly a value for money. The buttons feel solid, but the overall build quality is a major letdown.

I've been buying school uniforms from this brand for years, but this time I hit a snag. The new blouse literally started to unravel after just one day - before I even got a chance to wash it.

Play Today School Blouse, Article 22327067.

Play Today School Blouse, Article 22327067 I ordered it on Wish with a discount of around 2,000 rubles. The blouse itself is really cute and stylish, and my daughter absolutely loved it. That's why I didn't even get a chance to wash it - she was so excited to wear it to school!

Play Today School Blouse, Article 22327067 And yes, I do buy white blouses for my daughter to wear to school every day. She takes good care of them, and some of them have lasted for up to two years. But now she's grown a bit, and some of the old blouses are getting too small. I thought I'd found a replacement when I bought this one.

And yes, when I bought the blouse, it was still in its original packaging. I made sure to check for any stains or snags from the factory - I don't want to pay for someone else's carelessness and lack of attention to detail.

Play Today School Blouse, Article 22327067 When I put the blouse on, it was even better than I expected. It's lightweight, thin, and has delicate embroidery - it's really a girl's blouse! And the buttons are so cute:

And how am I supposed to sew this? And do I even try? My daughter's all upset. She was really looking forward to wearing this blouse. She asks me to sew it up neatly. But I'm stumped. The fabric's all loose and flaky. And it's fallen apart quite a bit. There's a good two inches of fraying. This will completely skew the back when I try to sew it. And the sleeve's just as bad.

I'm still trying to figure out how to wash it without it falling apart even more. The top fabric is just too thin and worn out!

The Verdict.

Honestly, this is the first top that's started unraveling on me within the first day of owning it. And I'm not talking about a single tear – it's basically disintegrating. Not worth the money.

I'd say this is a disposable piece, and not even a cheap one at that.

Thanks for reading my review! Not sure if it'll be helpful to you, though.
