You like to give your brain a workout whilst you shop, right? Oh, wait. You don't? Well tough times guys, because, in the search for unique clothes, you must employ your greater resources of brain power. And by that I mean that Korean e-store My Dress may be mostly written in Korean hangul but that's not going to stop us getting out hands on sassy lace-up trousers and Breton T-shirt dresses now, is it?

We're not going to lie: finding a specific item of clothing on My Dress is as much fun as pissing into the wind (the old linguistic barrier being an issue), but if you've got time for a general peruse, then just click on any set of symbols. It'll soon become obvious whether or not you've selected dresses or trousers or what have you and the prices are all displayed in Hong Kong dollars, which you can suss out with a quick Google conversion ($1 HK is roughly 8p), which makes everything super cheap.

It's almost so cheap that you might worry about the provenance of the clothes. So, if fast fashion is something you don't like to indulge in, then we can't deny that My Dress might not be your ideal pit stop. Either way, buy carefully – don't just buy five dresses because they came to under £100. OK? Apply your ethical intelligence in the same way that you would on Net-A-Porter.

But all that considered, there's LOADS of stuff, so if you're having a lonely night in with a grab bag of Monster Munch (the most superlative crisp and we will not hear otherwise,) then you've got hours of happy, if occasionally linguistically befuddled, browsing ahead of you. Oh, and a warning: the models, especially the moving Giffy ones, are very adorable so be prepared to fall for them when they're holding stuffed-bear Polaroid cameras and other very Korean-style kitsch props.

Cinched Gingham Dress

Wear with glittery ankle socks and studded brogues for an edgy, preppy vibe. Add some red lipstick and a box clutch if you're a Taylor Swiftian-style dresser. Very Stella Jean.

Gingham Dress 27.36

2-in-1 Sweater Blouse

We love a ruffly blouse and the sports/ladylike tension of this one is a nice balance.

 

Blouse and Sweater £27.36

Slightly Scalloped Mini Skirt

Very nice skirt and also check out how wonderfully they've styled it on the site with some Superstars (wait – are those actually Superstars? They look like narrow-fit sneaks. This site is blowing our minds.)

 

Scalloped Skirt, £19.52

Tartan Single-Breasted Pea Coat

Tartan is as strong as ever and this dress is fuss-free tartan at it's best. Again, superlative styling. Copycat them with a grey tee and black jeans. Why not! It looks great. Very Emma Roberts over duty (is that Emma Roberts earlier? IS IT?)

 

Tartan Coat, £20.30

A Charcoal Mask

Charcoal for your face? Yup. There's also a beauty section here and I can't pretend we aren't fascinated by whatever Korean skin wares it may sell. The Asian beauty industry is famous for its weird and wonderful products, after all. Baby Foot, anyone?

 

Annie's Way Charcoal Black Jelly Mask, £11.20

Maroon Backpack

Great structured shape and wonderful colour, too. This is very, very nice.

 

Backpack, £31.49
