Fit and sizing

Bershka cuts to a younger, of-the-moment silhouette, and they are good at it. If a cropped, body-close summer look is what you are after, their sets deliver that the week the trend lands. That is a real strength and worth saying plainly.

This set is cut with more room and movement. The waist on the shorts gives without losing shape, and the top skims rather than clings, so you are not adjusting it between a meeting and bending down to a buggy. It is sizing made for a body that has lived a few summers and a day that does not stop at 5pm.

Fabric and material

Bershka leans on lightweight textured fabrics that photograph well and cost little, which is exactly right for a piece you might wear hard for one summer and move on from.

Our gauze is a wrinkled cotton blend where the crinkle is the point. It breathes in heat, packs into a bag without a panic about creasing, and comes out looking intentional rather than slept-in. There is no ironing step because there is nothing to iron flat. We list the material and where the work was done on the product page, so you can check before you buy.

Colour and occasion

The solid colour is the quiet engine of this set. A clean, single tone reads as professional under a blazer for a pitch, then drops the blazer and reads as easy for the playground, then takes an earring and a sandal upgrade for dinner. Bershka's prints and trend colours are louder and more fun for a night out or a holiday, but they tend to anchor an outfit to one mood. A solid lets you change the mood instead of the clothes.

Where WowStore falls short — honestly

We are not going to pretend we win on everything. Four places Bershka is ahead of us right now:

• Name recognition. Most people know Bershka. Far fewer know us yet. That trust takes years to earn, and we are early. We'll get there. We're not pretending we're already there.
• Variety. Bershka drops a huge range every season. We carry a tighter, curated set of pieces. If you want endless options in one place, they have us beat for now. We'll get there. We're not pretending we're already there.
• Physical stores. You can walk into a Bershka, try it on, and walk out with it today. We are online, with EU returns, but we cannot hand it to you this afternoon. We'll get there. We're not pretending we're already there.
• Same-week trend response. When a look blows up, Bershka can have it on the rail in days. Our timelines are slower because we build pieces to last past the trend. We'll get there. We're not pretending we're already there.

Spotted something we missed?

If anything on this page or the product itself looks wrong, off, or oversold, tell us. Every product page on WowStore has a Report an issue link that goes straight to our listing team. Customers have already fixed sizing notes and fabric details for us through it. You are not shouting into a void; it is a working loop, and we read every one.

The real differentiation: 5% to the cause you choose

Here is the part no fast fashion set offers. With this set, 5% of what you pay goes to a cause you choose, not to a foundation we control and name after ourselves.

The old standard a lot of brands use is 1% to their own in-house foundation. We think that is too small and too inward-facing. So we set it at five times that, and we hand the choice of cause to you. Run the math on the bigger picture: at 5% per order, if even 1% of the market shopped this way, that adoption would direct roughly 10% of that market's spend toward real causes, against the thin trickle the old 1%-to-our-own-foundation model produces. Same shirt and shorts on your body either way. The difference is where the rest of the money goes.

When Bershka is the right pick

If you are buying for one summer, you want this exact season's look, you like trying things on in a shop the same day, and price is the deciding factor, buy the Bershka set. They are upfront about being trend-driven, they do it well, and for that brief there is no shame in choosing them. We would rather you got the right piece than the wrong one with our label on it.

When WowStore is the right pick

If you run your day instead of the other way around, and you want one set that carries you from an investor pitch to school pickup to a client dinner without a wardrobe change, this is built for you. If you also want to know what you are wearing, where it came from, and to send part of the spend to a cause that matters to you, this set does that. It is for the creative mom entrepreneur who is done buying twice.

Common questions about this comparison

Quick answers below, with a little context under each.

Will the wrinkled gauze actually look professional enough for a pitch?

Yes. The solid colour and clean cut read as intentional, especially under a blazer. The crinkle is a designed finish, not a sign it needs ironing, so it stays composed through a full morning rather than wilting by your second meeting.

Is this really easier to care for than a Bershka set?

For most people, yes. There is no ironing step because the texture is the point, so it survives being stuffed in a bag between school and the office. Bershka care varies by piece and some of their fabrics crease or pill faster over a hard-worn season.

How do EU returns work here compared to Bershka?

We run an EU-based returns process, so a return stays within the region rather than shipping far away. Bershka returns go through their own large network, which is convenient near a store. If you buy online and need to send something back, both work; ours keeps it local.

Why does this set cost more than a comparable Bershka one?

Part of it is a longer-lasting fabric and openly listed material and labour. Part of it is the 5% of every order that goes to a cause you choose. You are paying for a piece built past one season and for where the money lands, not only for the look.

I have not heard of WowStore. Why should I trust this over a known brand?

Fair question, and name recognition is one place Bershka beats us today. What we can offer instead is openly listed materials, EU returns, and a Report an issue link on every page that customers actually use to correct us. Trust is earned; we are showing our working.
