risky online shopping

While online shopping is always risky, buying a wedding dress online may be biggest gamble of them all.
大家都知道网购风险大，那么在网上购买婚纱简直就是最大的赌博了。

Still, many brides-to-be will scour the internet in search of tempting discounts or convincing counterfeit gowns. But if you dare to order that dream dress online, you may well receive a truly unrecognizable garment in your mailbox -- not to mention, it probably comes from a sweat shop.
但仍然有些准新娘刷遍网络，就为买到打折的高仿婚纱。如果你胆敢在网上购买你梦想的婚纱，那么暂且不提衣服很可能是血汗工厂出品的，你可能会在邮箱中收到一件无法认出是婚纱的衣服。
