VIDEO: Leggings fail
Onlie retailer AliExpress posted photos showing a slim model squeezed into one pant leg to sell plus-sized leggings.

Online retailer AliExpress confused and offended many customers in a new ad for their plus-sized leggings.

The ad shows a woman squeezing her entire body into just one pant leg of their plus-sized leggings.

The pants are sold in sizes ranging from 3 to 5XL.

After scrolling further down the page, photos of real women really wearing the pants can finally be seen.

People on social media are wondering why this company wouldn't have just used those pictures in the first place.
