"Strapless"

Has clearly visible straps

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 4 days ago

Not if your skin is pitch black.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Fits with the ai generated nature of these printed items.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Pretty sure it's just old fashioned photo shop, or MS paint if OP is real cool.

[–] toomanypancakes@piefed.world 33 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Stylish and baked, my favorite way to be

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 6 points 4 days ago

I love your username.

[–] Blaster_M@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I would get baked beans pattern clothes just for the meme

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I bought a corn shirt and shorts combo just to fuck with my wife and and kid

Dat interface though, looking like if a popup ad was a website

[–] SomethingBurger@jlai.lu 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Temu has the worst UI of any web store I've ever used.

[–] reksas@sopuli.xyz 6 points 4 days ago (2 children)

after seeing that picture, i just cant understand how anyone can use it and be "this is ok" and buy shit from there. To me, it would make me feel like cattle that is good only for giving money to some rich shit in exchange for what is essentially trash.

[–] SomethingBurger@jlai.lu 5 points 4 days ago (2 children)

It's super cheap. If I'm gonna buy low quality junk anyway, I might as well purchase it directly from the source instead of with a 200% markup on Amazon or even higher in a local store.

[–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

...you know Alibaba and Ebay are right there, I hope?

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Well Aliexpress.. i don't need a thousand widgets

I'm realistically never going to replace the hinges of my custom shelf door or the acrylic stands for my collection. Buying more expensive stuff for such simple items is useless.

[–] Jiral@lemmy.org 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

The stand? Probably not. The hinges? If you actually use your custom shelf it is either of similar durability as the hinge or you'll have to replace the hinges. Low quality hinges have a tendency to break apart fairly qickly. Cheap cast iron has terrible durability.

[–] Wren@lemmy.today 1 points 4 days ago

They forgot the OG Hitchhikers guide reference where the runaway economic collapse of the shoe industry resulted in people evolving wings.

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

I saw on a YouTube video that they have some "quick, it's a limited deal!" events that pop up all the time where you're forced to get 3 items or more in order to get the free bonus and you need to do it QUICKLY and can only choose from a limited pool of items that the algorithm chose for you according to what it thinks you like, so people is buying shit for FOMO

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 22 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Women get all the cute clothes

[–] SomethingBurger@jlai.lu 16 points 4 days ago (3 children)

There is an entire line of bean clothes:

[–] zarathustrad@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

How'd you get the beans above the frank?!

Please tell me it's called "Mr. and Mrs. Beans."

[–] imadethis@fedinsfw.app 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Damn, what sort of magician's tricks are they playing with the lighting? No way is a pair of shorts that vibrant.

[–] SomethingBurger@jlai.lu 6 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Green fabric and Photoshop.

[–] SavinDWhales@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Or simply AI generated pics that have nothing to do with the item you are receiving.

Lots of "I bought shit on Temu" videos around on YouTube.

[–] Jiral@lemmy.org 1 points 3 days ago

That is so old school. It is rather 3sec AI slop effort, maybe even automated slop.

[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 7 points 4 days ago

Nothing's stopping you from wearing it. There ain't nothing manlier than being yourself.

Heavy Beaning Intensifies

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 9 points 4 days ago (2 children)

The Chinese are over there trying to get into the heads of Americans: "They like this food they call barbecue. It's just meat cooked over a fire, but they just love it. Anyway, they like to have these beans with it. It's like their rice, with their Barbecue.

"They really, really love these beans. They love them so much, that I'll bet they'll wear a dress with beans on it!"

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

They aren't even trying. They're throwing anything at the wall and iterating. It's like they're training an LLM, but for an industry of crap being sold to idiots.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Valid.

"There seems to be no end to what these idiot Americans will throw their money away on."

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Literally a business model.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 2 days ago

That's what I say about Trump bankrupting all those casinos. It wasn't just because he's a bad businessman (although that's well established), but it's because that was the business plan from the start. Buy the casino, run up the debt, strip it of every possible asset, then file bankruptcy, stiff everyone, and keep the money.

Once he succeeded at that the first time, don't you think Trump would want to do it again? He did, 5 more times. It wasn't bad business, it was a successful business model. He only quit when the courts caught on and he couldn't do it anymore, or he'd STILL be doing it.

It's fun to point and laugh at his poor business acumen, using the casinos as proof, but the truth is much darker - he stole from, and forcibly unemployed, thousands of people, just to line his pockets, and the courts allowed him, and even helped him do it, over and over.

The answer is more boring. Chinese optimise their AI slop for engagement. Just like clickbait of other kind this is there to make people share about it. This thread shows the success of that strategy. Needless to say that any physical product shipped will have little to do with the ad.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 1 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It's more banal than that. The new thing over on Etsy is all-over printing, where it isn't just a logo on a T-shirt, it's a pattern that covers the entire item.

You can upload a pattern, and they can print it on a blank white dress for pennies. The best part is that you don't have to do a run of a thousand or whatever, you can print literally just ONE.

So while it's doubtful that they will sell many baked bean dresses, it didn't really cost them anything to offer it, and they did create a dress that got us all talking about it.

It's a great ad for the platform: "Look, they've even got weird stuff like that baked bean dress. Surely they'll have something I'll want."

Get it?

[–] Jiral@lemmy.org 2 points 3 days ago

I already got it before your post, thank you. It is attention farming marketing.

Those pattern prints usually look much shottier in teal life than on the slop images. Even though in this concrete example it is not that much off. Already the image looks terribly cheap, independently if the motive.

Temu textiles have shown time and again that they are disposable quality.

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well, that is sort of neat.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 3 days ago

Print-on-demand IS pretty cool. For less than what it costs to buy some expensive piece of clothing with some billionaire's logo on it, so YOU can pay for the privilege of advertising HIS company, you can create clothes with your own logo, or artwork, or design, or pattern on it, and express YOURSELF.

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 12 points 4 days ago

For $17 you'd be losing money if you didn't buy that.

[–] mech@feddit.org 10 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (2 children)
[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

It's just bean dress size.

[–] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

One Size Fits Beans

[–] SGforce@lemmy.ca 12 points 4 days ago

Baked beans Coded

[–] Gork@sopuli.xyz 12 points 4 days ago

Time to finance that in easy installments of $4.37

[–] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I feel like this is something Liam (The Plant Slant) would wear in one of his videos.

[–] NoPanko@feddit.uk 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I saw beans and was wondering if there would be a liam mention lol
