Lili B Puff Sleeve Minidress

the bottom dress is cute but the corset I could never get on! The strings to lace it up dont have wrapping around the ends, so they are too frayed to push through each hole. in the dressing room me and the associate tried wrapping the ends with scotch tape, and also using a bobby pin to help push them through each hole, but that only worked a couple times, the holes are very small on the corset

The dress itself has zero support in the bust and is cut super low, so my chest was basically hanging low and out. I loosened the laces on the corset as best as I could, but there's no way an adult woman of average or taller height could squeeze their arms and head through the corset. It doesn't have a zipper. It was COMICALLY small and narrow - like only a child or super, super small adult could wriggle into. I have zero idea as to how they managed to get that thing on the model.
