When someone spends $100,000 on dresses they expect perfection. Umm .. when someone spends ANY AMOUNT on a wedding dress they expect perfection.
Perectly said.
yeah like it been okej for beading missing or the dress was missing becouse they only bougth 1 dress.
She could have used some of that money at an orthodontist. Also a better weave. Just saying.
@@diannesimmons4258 Oh no you didn't!!!! I can't
@@vernamorales2326 lol
The consultant had a huge smile all the time, just thinking about her commission for the $200 K sale! 😆
So True
The bride should have spent over half the money to help feed the poor homeless people in her country They would be very happy too received food an medical 🏥 supplies for the homeless 😅people and hungry people. Shame on her The people would be very happy. The people would have support her dad’s military and other surveies
@@kathleenlacey6275 her wedding her money if you wanna complain about the homeless take that up to the president her giving her money away to people won’t do anything to help the economy that money won’t last forever and those people will become homeless again there’s homeless shelters for a reason and she deserves to have her dream wedding with the money she worked to get she shouldn’t have to give her money to random people shame on you
@@hamburger2922 you must be part of the family. Try training the people who are willing to work. Improve the living space You’ll see the difference in people. Where are you going to get further military people
@@kathleenlacey6275 why are you now talking abt military we were talking about her wedding and homeless people
They charged her all that money for a custom dress made for her and when it didn't fit they charged her again? That's not right. A custom dress not fitting is the fault of the designer
They changed her again because she lost weight. They made the dress to her measurements before. Most people tell the seamstress they will be losing weight so it will be factored in
She's an African heiress??? I don't think they're be putting be putting their hand over heart for something like that.
Yeah that’s what happens, if you go buy a dress & get fitted for it then down the road need it tailored again you’re going to be charged again for that labor…
If she's not complaining why not charge her?? You heard her she wants be a Queen 👑 on her wedding
@@m.ghaoui5777 a queen with lipstick on her teeth ???
How can that red dress cost 30K?? Pnina must be laughing all the way to the bank
Right, it cost 30k because dyeing it was so complicated ! Sure, Pnina.
Exactly that whole wedding was 200,000 Pnina is totally seeing $$$ her stuff isn't that great Randy's line is so much better
It hasn't had the beading added, usually, each bead is expensive, and if the whole dress is beaded, then it gets really expensive.
And with ill-gotten, stained and most probably blood money
@@nillaskat1 Totally agree, Randy's line is so much better and less tacky.
Imagine knowing your daddy is a corrupt government official whilst deciding to appear on a very popular show so you can boast about how you’re spending innocent Angolan citizens money on multiple dresses…. The definition of brazen and shameful.
well. let’s not blame the daughter
Exactly what I was thinking when I heard the introduction
@@monalisasssmile as if she doesn’t know what’s going on…..I don’t believe any adult is that naive
@@lauradelaney5457 i’m not at all negating her actions. but you have to consider the role she plays as the daughter. her fault is not recognizing her position and the fact she shouldn’t be spending the money made off of citizens of a fairly poor country
Money talk and bullshit walks….
As A South African I know all to well how competitive wealthy Africans in power positions get. With so much squandered and stolen money, the governments and their cronies leave our country poor while they live obscenely luxurious lives, labels are everything. The ultimate in bad taste, overkill of label culture.
It’s all Africa if it was not for this people Africa would be wealthy
Elites in third world countries are usually just ridiculous, I say this as an Indian.
Sounds like the Marcos women from the Philippines. Think Imelda and other SE Asian countries and their president's wives.
That was my first thought. How obscene, to spend this amount of money on clothing when there is such need in the world, in her own country. Any time I hear about this kind of exorbitant spending, I am saddened for humanity. While I do believe in conservative values and reaping the benefits of one’s own efforts, there’s a difference in my mind between luxury and wasteful spending. She had the chance to demonstrate to her family’s supporters that they are cognizant of the struggles other people endure by perhaps donating or funding some charitable cause INSTEAD of dumping money for a one-time social event. She/they chose to flaunt extravagance in the face of hard times. This is the epitome of selfishness. This bride-to-be would have looked equally stunning in a 10k dress, which is still a lot of money. jmho.
Preach.
I find the price of these dresses obscene; how can people spend that much money on a dress worn for a few hours. Pnina Tornai says she makes them to see a mother cry...no it's because she is making a fortune. Give me Gok Wan any day who can make a bride look totally stunning for far less.
I couldn't agree more.
Gok is a joy. So are the chubby brides ladies, but thrse people WANT to be seen squandering money. That is how vulgar and shallow they are. They see their value in labels and cost.
If they believed lavatory paper was $1,000 a metre, they would fight over a toilet paper dress.
And that Pnina woman APPEARS to have spent the cost of these dresses on plastic surgery, already.
Just vulgar bad taste in buckets.
gok all the way
@@georgielancaster1356 chubby brides ladies????
Her dresses are so trashy as well. The brides all look like drag queens.
These rich people always have more money than sense. That girl who flew from whichever African country should be ashamed of herself. There are very skilled seamstresses in any given African country.
Excuse you?! You sound incredibly ignorant. Why is it always a problem when it’s a black woman living well?
They're not really "rich." Her father stole the money. It's aid money. Could be World Bank, U.N., or USAID. It could be American taxpayers' money!
She is the daughter of a corrupt man. She has no taste of course cause people like her never do. She honestly just came on this show to show off money that her father stole
So true
"I'm having a big wedding with 800 people"
Meanwhile, in Greece this is just a family gathering
As a greek I can agree with this lol
My cousin had 700 hundred people here in the US. That is the biggest wedding in our family.
This just shows money (stolen) does not equal taste. My sympathies to the people of Angola and my sympathies to anyone who thinks Pnina has any taste at all.
Lots of cash lots of trash. Stealing food from the mouths of babies, literally. Shameful. Corrupt. I hope all the wedding party and guests get really bad food poisoning. I mean really bad.
gaudy dresses
Right! I mean yeah her dresses are beautiful (some) but I don’t know if it’s the constant shoveling her dresses down brides throats or what that make me think these dressed have been done and worn before…
Honestly? Yeah, it's way too ease to steal people's money and get away with it like it's their right to do so, it's infuriating.
And Pnina's dresses are usually way overpriced and not even pretty enough to be robbed like that.
Thank you! You are right. I am from Angola and feel ashamed and sad about it.
A friend of mine was a refugee from Angola. Her family lost everything. I find it abhorrent that these people would spend all of that money when most of their countrymen live in poverty.
I think you'll find the comments on this are about 75% agreeing with your distaste. These are people who worship the Karcrapions.
It is indeed abhorrent to spend that kind of money on a dress, but it is not the responsibility of the rich to take care of everyone who is less fortunate. It just isn’t. It’s a philosophy of liberal Americans that those who prosper should give away all their money to those who do not. That’s not how it works in a free country. Like it or not, there will always be rich people who do not share their wealth. Nor do they have to.
@@bellem.8329 True but those who truly have a heart of gold definitely would, especially if they came from humble beginnings themselves so they know how it feels to be poor and suffering. Those who don’t share and care for the less fortunate are selfish pigs that doesn’t know it hurts until a needle pokes them.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj agree, but most of the wealthy people I know do contribute a lot of money to charitable causes even if they spend a lot on weddings and other extravagant things. People see their spending but they usually keep their giving anonymous so it can appear that they don’t care. And of course on that show, they are going to do a segment about the big spenders to get ratings.
@@bellem.8329 That is true too but I kind of doubt that is the case here as the money they are spending is most likely blood or corruption money. If they did help out the less fortunate then why are the people in their country still suffering and living in poverty?
$500 for a tiny little net veil is outrageous. A blatant RIP off. That's just BS.
Amazon has a similar one for $12.66.
Definitely not worth it, I know shes a designer, but not convinced the dresses were worth what they payed for them x
Do you not understand what "couture" means??? So sorry.
It's made by hand sewing crystals.
@@dianepike827 yes, but actually everything is hand done with the extremely expensive raw goods.
Despite extensive oil and gas resources, diamonds, hydroelectric potential, and rich agricultural land, Angola remains poor, and a third of the population relies on subsistence agriculture. As a Cabinet member, of Angola, I wonder what daddy is doing to help his constituents get out of poverty. Clearly, the resources are there. Oh yeah.... they all went for his daughter's wedding.
Nailed it.
In England, thousands cannot afford to heat their homes and queue for food banks, whilst the royals spend millions on pomp and ceremony.
Sad spend money on fkn dresses while people starve
He was actually the vice president at this time. Not just a cabinet minister.
A better title to this episode:
"Corrupt African leader pays more than Anyone in the history of Kleinfeld, one of the most expensive Bridal shops in the world."
I hate this episode. Shame on TLC for airing it
Word 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
So true
Good title!
@@lauradelaney5457 Yes, I couldn't watch all of it, it was making me sick.
Taste and wealth don't necessarily go hand in hand.
Facts!
Yess
Those dresses couldn't have looked more tacky or cheap
So much money to lool like a kid at prom in the 90s
And I question whether they legally earn that wealth.
@@AFAskygoddess legally? Absolutely. Ethically? Unlikely.
When a corrupt govt makes laws, you don't think they'd ensure their own activities are protected?
A few minutes on Google tells me that a) the average Angolan wage earner made about $27 US a month between 2018 and 2019, and Angola ranks 136th out of 180 on the Corruption Perception Index with a score of 29/100 (the lower the number, the more corrupt the government is perceived to be). That a cabinet minister can afford to drop $200K on wedding dresses for his daughter smells to high heaven. If I lived in Angola and caught this segment, I would be plenty angry. What in the world was TLC thinking when they made and aired this segment?
Some corrupt cabinet minister
i can’t imagine being an angolan citizen knowing that 200k was spent so someone’s daughter’s for dresses that will be worn once when that money could have been allocated to the country’s benefit
They'll probably never know. Most of them can't even afford food let alone TV, computer, handphone and internet
WE must tell them then. I just put a curse on the entire wedding reception. I hope I'm not too late. They will all get food poisoning, and the bride will shit herself. She'll have a big brown poo stain on that beautiful white gown of hers. Well, one of them.
30 grand on a dress to sign a register in. What is wrong with her?
@@silentbliss7666 And how do you know that?
@@silentbliss7666 they know. this is a very famous daughter of a very famous politician (google). He was famous for not being corrupt till this show aired ... People in Africa do have access to these things... Don't stereotype.
Basically "How can a person spend that much on a dress when there are starving kids in Africa ..." taken to a whole new level.
There are starving kids everywhere - that is what capitalism is all aout. But yes, the question is legitimate...
@@vickyac2423 Angola is not a capitalist/free market economy. It has a centralized, government-controlled economic system which explains why a mere "cabinet minister" could be flying a large group of family members overseas multiple times to spend money like there's no tomorrow. They're not the ones working to earn it.
There are starving children here... Look how people squander their money.
Africa is not a country.
And she didn’t go see a dentist to get her teeth fixed
"Cabinet Member" as if we're supposed to think very highly of her as she spends a fortune on dresses while her people are starving in horrifying poverty ... I want to take a good look at her.
There has only been one other episode that has out right made me mad before. It is the infamous one with the worst mom ever when Randy gets so livid about the way she treated her child, when he has always wanted one himself. If you've seen it, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Anyways, the fact that the first bride spent $200k on all those over the top expensive dresses when 50% of her country live in poverty made me completely sick. Talk about a corrupt government. Jesus.
Which episode is that? Is that the one where Randy comforts the daughter after her mom makes fun of her?
This episode made me mad. This girl and her family are sick! I bet she divorced not long after wasting all that money on a stupid ugly dress.
My comment said that the bride should expect another civil war for her grotesque display of wealth gained as the result of corruption and God knows what else. They looked cheap and tacky. The orange dress looked about as expensive as a chain store bought one, the bling will only make the mother of the bride look even more trashy. How many mouths could $200, 000 US feed? And that's only for the dresses! How much is the wedding costing🤢😵🤮😭☹👿 altogether? Probably the entire GDP!
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj What episode is that? Is it on youtube?
Completely agree. It's disgusting how the leadership in African countries live while their people are in abject poverty. Third world troglodytes.
@@am5783 Yes and it is the one with a girl named Samantha. Her mom laughed at her...Randy was very upset...
I’m genuinely curious does Pnina actually make the / design dresses herself or is it like a cruella devil situation where there’s just a bunch of designers laboring away and pnina gives the stamp of approval..?
All high end designers have a bunch of junior designers working under them... maybe they designed it together... with ofc Pnina finishing and finalising the design
So many people are taking the credit for someone else's work! I introduce you to multimillionaires and billionaires!!!
I saw her on an interview where she said most of the dresses are hers, but she said she does collab.
she is the designer..the work is done by a dress makers.. then sent to the shop for a final fitting
@@MaryJane-qq9mm She gives credit, she even went into the details of her team and their work in this video😭 theyre in the same room!
30k for a dress that you're just going to wear to sign your wedding certificate in? 200k overall? You could change someone's life with that money. My friend made my wedding dress to my specifications just for the cost of materials. If I had all the money in the world, I wouldn't change it. You couldn't buy that in any shop
Her Dad STOLE that moey
@@eh5507 Yes it is corruption money.
You could change an ENTIRE ANGOLAN VILLAGE with that money.
I know this is an old post, but if you think about the exchange rate to USD, it'd even more expensive for them.
While any individual has the right to celebrate their wedding as they choose, I am surprised that this daughter from a prominent political family of a very financially challenged country would choose to flaunt their wealth so publicly.
It's not surprising at all.
Sadly, not surprising at all. Money does not come with education.
This episode actually made me uncomfortable. I love Randy, but his glee at the amount of money they spent was completely tone deaf to the government corruption that this show was clearly ignorant about. It's shameful. Someone should have done a bit of research before they agreed to air this, but I'm sure Pnina and Kleinfeld's don't really care where the money's coming from because it's just business. Let's face it, I'm sure it happens every month there that corrupt people drop thousands for their daughters.
@@kp4911 I understand the issue with money coming from corrupt government but I can't help but point out the hypocrisy . Where is all this energy when the british “royals” spend billions on their weddings? Billions that are rooted in colonialism, Taxation, and exploitation? Or do you really just mean to say that this type of luxury should only be reserved for white women?
@@kp4911 I actually heard the silent "Cha-ching!" when Randy was talking about how much money was spent. It is over the top for so much blinged up lingerie, imo. I am not a Pnina dress fan though.
As Pnina is speaking about the customized dress & veil, the father looks like he's just thinking, "How much is this going to cost me??" 😅
Cost him? Cost the citizens of his country (and Brazil by proxy).
@@Willowy13 Angola
All panini is seeing is dollar signs
@@Willowy13 that's the other family
Notice the daughter is the one who said there was no budget. I would have liked to have heard that from the father's mouth.
The way Pnina asks her about making a custom dress like it’s the devil asking someone to sell their soul to her
I know Panina only sucks up to rich brides ..
Spending that amount of money on dresses is insane in my opinion! Gluttony is not just about how much food you eat. It is gluttonous!
Especially considering the dad is a cabinet member of Angola - let others starve while your daughter and her friends buy fancy dresses. So corrupt and insensitive.
@@jeannetteroldan5119 I agree with you. Absolutely disgusting and inhumane!
@@jeannetteroldan5119 well… I’m sorry I just can’t get behind that point. I agree if you have THAT much money you do have some sort of responsibility to give back to the community that helped provide you with a foundation. But I don’t think that just because he wanted his daughter to have a beautiful wedding day (which is a once in a lifetime experience, mind you), that means it’s his fault people are starving. They’re just not related. Also who knows what type of people they are on the side? All we can see is their wedding dresses, so it’s incredibly disrespectful to make comments and assumptions on their character just because they want to make their daughter happy.
@@moosehead1183 woah lol speak for urself
Where do you think he got all his money from?
I'm sorry this is disgusting. Angola is a poor country, but this Cabinet members daughter is acting like a princess and Panina is there to take advantage. Gross!
Angola being a poor country is not the problem, her wealth being stolen money is the real issue.
@@lawtraf8008 i believe that's what she was implying with her comment. No way a cabinet member of a poor country can be this rich without corruption
"These dresses are over $100,000"
*Proceeds to drag on floor*
😂🤦🏾♀️
So the bride needs a seperate dress just for signing the wedding certificate??? And, of course, a ceremony dress. Kinda surprised she didn't get a reception dress too. Hey - 9 dresses, 10 dresses - what's another $30,000.
This is basically an episode of Crazy Rich Africans!
I agree and why didn't Daddy have Pnina brought to Africa. Why was the added costs for shop commissions even part of the sale.
How surprising when all I have been hearing and lectured for the past several years is how racist this world is how oppressed poc around the world are!
@@katzlevyalon There is in America. African Americans and Africans have two different types social issues. AAs have the problems that everyone is talking about while just Africans really don't have that much of a problem.
Bah9 You could probably figure out yourself that one example of African wealth doesn’t negate the plight of POC in much of the world.
It’s like saying that because Bill Gates is rich, so are all white people.
@@MOMOHEARTS I mean... Classicism is still a huge problem in Africa. This woman just happens to be from the wealthy ruling class. The fact that some black Africans have been lucky enough to profit off of the racism of colonial rule doesn't come CLOSE to negating the centuries of trauma and poverty that their brethren have faced. You can't see one well-off black family and think "maybe apartheid and slavery weren't so bad!" It's ridiculous.
Never have I ever cringed more while watching SYTTD episode before, up to this one. To be spending this sick amount of money not even on the whole wedding, but ONLY on dresses, which are not only ugly, look tacky AND will be worn ONLY ONCE, is just ridiculous.
Watching this made me realize that you can't buy either a style with money, or common sense.
It's so bizarre to me why Pnina's dresses are so popular, with the cheap ugly look you're getting for the craziest prize. I'll never understand it.
Also, for all this money Kleinfeld got, their customer service was very unprofessional to say the least.
Edit: Having read the comments and knowing that the family spent all this money coming off from being in a government, while the country's poor.. yup, that's a cherry on top
Nobody does the ‘hooker bride’ quite like Pnina!
@@crablover6187 same, I don't see the appeal of Pnina's dresses , they look like something a Vegas showgirl would wear.
I totally agree! She seems like a nice person, but her dresses are ugly. It looks like something you’d wear in the bedroom, not on a sacred event as a wedding! I hate the see thru and boning in the corset! But that’s just me.
@@karenjohnson5634 I hate the see-through and boning in the corset with all my body :^)
I get that the fashion trends change and it's very good that there are way more choices when it comes to bridal dresses compared to before - to each their own - but for damn sake. I could never wear a dress that looks like lingerie to my own wedding, for so many people to see!
$200,000 worth of taxpayers' money no doubt. The dresses are gorgeous but my African leaders are corrupt 😢😢
I was trying not to think that way because other cultures spend ridiculous amounts of money on weddings. I don’t know much about Angola, but when I see a government official flashing money like that, it makes me think.
She is Brazilian not african
@@fatimaabbad3474 Uhmmm, at the beginning, it says she’s the daughter of an Angolan cabinet member, but it wouldn’t be any better if she was Brazilian. It’s a terrible waste of taxpayer money.
@@fatimaabbad3474 0:04 so... Brazil is Africa now? She's Angolan. People speak portuguese in more countries than only Portugal and Brazil.
So much poverty and then this.
Imagine what a person could do with 200.000$😳 and it's spent on dresses they could have got for 20.000 total
Imagine how much Angolians can benefit with $200,000. It is disgusting, why so many dresses?
In the US you could buy a house. In ANGOLA?? I can’t even imagine how many people that kind of money could provide for. This is horrible.
P
@@jworth7203 I know it's just greed and trying to impress people that will be dead one day as If it matters how glamorous your wedding dresses are it's for a few hours then it's over an people spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on weddings it's insanity
@@Jesussavedme it is crazy. My daughter had a lovely wedding for less than $10k. Granted, we’re in the Midwest, and it took quite a bit of shopping around.
How obscene. The country is so very poor....
And corrupt
“Most of my dresses have see-through corsets. That’s what the brides want!”
No, not normal brides.
I absolutely did. For my wedding night and for my husband's eyes only.
I agree
Agree. The only trend more tacky that the see-through corset was the option to show "side boob." Honestly, save it for the honeymoon.
I can't stand the visible boning/transparent bodices on Pnina's dresses. They look tacky and trendy. Pnina said it all when she said "that's what the brides want." In 10 years they will look back and go, "Ew!!"
Totally agree!!!! I think they are so ugly and cost way too much.
90% of people say ewww! NOW
Me too! I find them ugly but yet so expensive. It seems like the more expensive they are the uglier they get.
I thgink that trend of see through and boning and all you can see through to the cups...... looks so so so cheap
Yeah I have no idea how these tacky dresses get so much love.
it's the "there's no budget because my dad adores me" for me
My my dad adored me and would have expected me to have common sense.
Love that for her
My wedding dress was $50 on special 😂😂😂 We were happily married for 12 years until my darling husband died January 2022. On Wednesday it would have been our 13th. I can't comprehend spending this kind of money for a few hours
She said yes to a dress that doesn't yet exist? I completely trust Pnina to create something spectacular, but what if the bride isn't happy with the final result?
I was expecting to see the finished dress and we see bits and bobs of stuff
Then changes will be made! Some ppl lose weight overtime and things change but its all factored in in time for the wedding
Bruh.. I bought my dress for $120 (and I thought that was too much still) online and paid 80 for our local dry cleaners to alter it and I honestly wouldn't have done anything different.. 🙃 this is insane to me...
Same, I had a beautiful dress made on Etsy, supporting a small business owner that cost $150 and my husband and I had a wonderful ceremony. This is insane
I paid $43 and altered myself the dress with my mom help and it was a perfect gown hahaha!.
Yep. My whole wedding dress ensemble was under $500. And I looked like a princess. These dresses are not chic imo
Yes. My sis in law picked out a dress that was over my budget in the afternoon, that evening I grabbed my matron of honor went to David’s Bridal and got a the $99 special. That dress was beautiful and I was very happy!
I got a 120.00 off the rack....fit me perfectly. 60.00 for the headpiece and it was perfect 1978....but I had a friend that got married the following year and spent 800.00 on her dress and 2 headpieces totalling 600.00.
200,000 for 9 dresses? I could put that towards a house. Throw in the cost of the 2nd bride's custome dress, and I can buy a used car, and have money left over.
I could buy a house, a car and help those less fortunate and STILL have money left for my retirement !! This is ostentatious, so over the top and wasteful. Doubt they are together (happily) after 5 yr.
These ppl no doubt live in a palace. $200,000.00 is chickenfeed for them. They'd have many millions of dollars. They wouldn't buy a home for the cost of those dresses.
In developed and poor country you could buy 14 very decent house with that amount of money. Even 28 house if you choose the public housing the government build for those in need.
A house? Not these days sadly. I live in California that is. A house I saw in el Cerrito use to be 200,000 back in 1996 but now it’s over 1 million. I looked it up on Zillow…it’s honestly greedy and sad these days
Once again, Pnina's dresses are proof that you can't buy good taste and elegance. The dresses look cheap slathered with crystals that look like glass beadings.. and to spend such an atrocious amount when there is so much poverty from where she comes from is just insensitive. Also, each dress probably costs 2-4k tops and there are so many other much prettier dresses from other labels
to each their own. I absolutely love her designs from the past few years or so
I find American fashion to be like that - I hope no one does get offended - but these dresses in particular are ridiculously expensive and flashy, in a bad way.
I agree I find her designs tacky but I guess she's very popular for a reason . Maybe just not for me
@@Anto_81 Can you really call it American fashion when she is Italian? Her biggest spending client in the episode was Angolan and I don't think the parents of the other were born American.
I looked at her website and I didn't see one thing that I would consider classy or beautiful. There were a couple that could have been but the photos were at the beach and they were all see-through. Tacky and cheap.
The obscenity of spending that kind of money (which was stolen in the first place) on dresses makes me sick to my stomach. It's grotesque.
“I don’t have a budget because my dad ADORES ME.” Is it possible to sound more spoiled?
Your kidding me $500 for that little bit of lace on her head . WTF !
500 dollars for a bedazzled loofa is outrageous.
Check online the bride's name and the follow up in Angola after it aired in 2017. Uproar. They were not happy
Being poor and knowing need in the world, I could not spend that much, especially if my father was in the gov't. I would want to be the example of charity and humbleness towards the people of my country.
Very well spoken. Just imagine how much food can brought for the poor. And didn't she say over 800 people
I would have donated 10 water bores or given 10 villages solar power/water/lights to celebrate my wedding and been proud about it all my life. This is vacuous vanity and thoughtless cynical, vulgarness. At least it wasn't $200,000 for one wedding dress, which was the ckickbait title. If I were the business owner, I would be embarrassed and uncomfortable about being involved - but I would have charged through the nose and donated 90% of profit to one of my charity passions. Or maybe paid for the water bores in their country from my orofits - but giving them none of the undeserved credit. And a minister if the country... REALLY tacky.
@@mariaedwards6371 be quiet. It’s her money and her day. You’re just jealous
@@spookytrash it's her father's money.....corruption in government is rife in the country. She seems like a nice person though...
@@spookytrash right! like you never know she could be doing charity work too. everyone deserves to have the wedding of their dreams
Angola gdp per capita for 2021 was $2,138 Nice to know daddy can offer the dream wedding off the backs of his Angolan citizens. Way to go politics.
Not one dress from PN warrants a price tag like what we saw in this video. Not one!
LMAO the dad's face when he heard that the dress is going to be custom-made... priceless😅
So many poor people struggling in this world today in 2022, this hits wrong
I dont “get” the Pnina Appeal 🤨… I do not care for her designs at all!!
Just jealous
@@robinsaffold4156 not really. Its a preference. Im not really sold on her dresses either.
Money talks and bullshit walks
The quote by dolly always comes to mind when I see brides in a Pnina “it takes a lot of money to look this cheap”
They're ok- I like others like Mark Zunino better!!!
Pnina sell 3,000 dollars dress to 30,000 dollars 😅
My husband and I eloped in 1993. I wore a beautiful bridal suit that I spent $300 on with a veil. We are still happily married. Enlightenment happens when the ego, superego and id are in check understanding that the money and the dress does not make the marriage. These "princesses" are free to spend whatever they want on these dresses. None of my business, but love is not expressed with material possessions.
Hoe cute🥰
I noticed that the more expensive the dresses get, the ugliest they look
Don't expect good taste from thieves and corrupt scoundrels, which is what this girl's daddy is. I'm horrified by the whole thing.
Exactly!
This episode is insane. Not only do you have a person who designs dresses fail quite a bit. But also, when it comes to the new dress for an insane amount of money not to be shown? Honestly, wtf? Usually, I'm pretty easy going but this was a whole other level on the other extreme.
Maybe some people must realise that there are people dying of honger out there...it is totally ridiculous to spend so much money on a wedding....🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
As an angolian woman, I feel ashamed 😔
You must feel cheated too.
I don't blame you this is so wrong on so many levels. They need to take this down.
My theory is Pninas dresses are stunning in person. They certainly don't look worth those price tags to us watching on video!
This is what a corrupt government looks like, when the daughter of a starving nation can pay for so much
This is the first time I've actually liked Pnina's dresses with the first bride. I love the straps and the bling and the style down to the knees. The bottom not so much but with the ball gown wow! I don't like the different Tulle lengths but I do love a good ballgown. Damn over $200,000? That bride better get the royal treatment but I think Pnina definitely has her work cut out for her.
Truly spectacular wedding gowns are made in Nigeria and Lebanon. Super-luxury stuff that isn't available anywhere else, including Paris haute couture.
There's no way I'd spend $200,000 on Kleinfeld's hoochie Pnina dresses. Those see-through 1990s corset tops look like the cheap lace Merry Widow bras we bought on sale at Walmart years ago. Worn as scandalously bare summer tops, they came in white, black and a variety of loud high-fashion colors. The original Victoria's Secret sold them topped with silk roses in the 1980s.
go off Paula
Paula, you're right. Several Lebanese designers created breathtaking, opulent wedding gowns.
@@AFAskygoddess Pnina is an Israeli Designer
I agree 100%! Would much rather spend that kind of money on Zuhair Murad’s wedding dress! Much prettier then these ones, can’t even compare! 😊
Zuhair Murad and Elie Saab are two Lebanese designer that came up with amazing high quality dresses
The extreme excess is sickening
I feel most of Pninas gowns r over priced
expensive: yes! stylish: not at all! dresses do not flattering the bride. bridemaids dresses r ok. but the huge bow, nonono
I can’t watch anymore of this! Why is she throwing away so much money when there are starving people in her country
Agreed. I feel sick
Me too some are so sick.
Because her whole family have a NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER.
Pure sociopathic behavior captured on SYTTD. Make my stomach turn and skin crawl.
I think its totally insane to spend that much money on ANY dress..
Clearly she did not work to earn the money to pay that dress
Doubt she works
And I'm sure that on the streets there are despairing people scraping for food and work in Angola. This is so sad.
9 pnina dresses. Wow. She wasn't a diva either that bride. The 2nd bride was lovely too
More momey than sense. If I had that money to spend on dresses I wouldn't spend it on tacky Pnina dresses. The bridesmaids look like they have been giftwrapped. But really when she said "I want my wedding to be better than the other weddings I've seen" that said it all. It's just for her image. Give the money to charity or something. Who wants to spend their wedding constantly getting changed instead of having fun. Let alone into ugly dresses
“I want a big wedding with 800 people.” Girl how do you even know that many humans?
She comes from Africa and she’s spending 30 grand for just signing the marriage license. She seriously could help her country. SMH.
How many children could you feed for that price? Jesus that's self obsession is beyond me
This is the most disgusting display of privilege ever! Angola is one of the poorest countries in the world and you are celebrating! How do you think an Angolan cabinet member got rich by not exploiting the people of that poor country.
Can you Imagine how many kids could have been saved from starvation with all that money?! 😓
It’s sickening to even think about 😣
Wow... I feel dizzy just thinking about such a huge number to spend on a single event! I guess this is one of the perks of being rich and care less about how much you spend if you really want something done!😔
Me too
yeah honestly i'm not vibing with the "look how much money i have, i'm spending $30,000 on a dress only my immediate family is going to see for like an hour."
@@dietotaku Agreed!
Many of the African countries are super corrupt, who knows if the money is clean.
I could have purchases a house for the cost of attire for her wedding.
Money doesn't buy taste, class or a conscience.
I wish we could’ve seen the dress Pnina made for her!
I didn't like the tiara with the mantilla style veil. The veil needed to be brought up on her head a little more.
Me too!!!
People are starving and this money is spent on a dress. I just can't grasp this...
Nine dresses actually and yes it's an obscene amount of money.
I’m just so happy that the bridesmaids dresses are actually beautiful 😂
I don’t care how much money they have it can’t buy class or style, but I’d sure like the commission for making the sale.
-- The gap between the rich and the poor has never been wider.
Who in their right mind would spend 30000$ on that dress at 5:39. It literally looks like a lingerie.
I see they made a budget bride compilation. Totally relatable lol.
If the dresses cost 100,000... I can only imagine how much the wedding was
All that extravagant expense so that the daughter of a government official in a poor country can feel like a princess. Okay, an American business has no responsibility to act as the moral arbiter for a customer, but this episode made me deeply uneasy. It would have been best for Kleinfeld's image not to broadcast it.
Now regarding this bride, my not very nice impulse was to slap her. How much is the *official* salary of an "important" government official in Angola? Enough to blow over a hundred grand over a daughter's wedding? I suspect not. That kind of money comes from corrupt practices, and the bride knows it or is willfully blind.
For 200K you could take the price tag off the earing.
this episode really blew my mind… THAT much money on just some dresses and only dresses.. wow crazy
She’s not just paying for these dresses I’m sure she flew everyone there also
This is not generosity. This is government corruption. Her father works for one of the most corrupt government in Africa. That is where the money is coming from. The people are impoverished in Angola.
@@kp4911 trust me I know I'm from Somalia everyone is just taking taking I hate it
I remember seeing this when it came out and thinking ‘shame on you kleinfelds’ for taking stolen money from Angolan corruption. So many people suffering in Angola and politicians raking off money from aid. Shame on the whole family too.
It's not Kleinfeld's job to regulate people's morals; they're just a wedding dress store.
its $200,000 not $200.000.... so she spent $200 instead of two hundred thousand? lol punctuation IS important.
Idk cus her sees is 25k alone so I'm confused on the title too
In Europe (and possibly other counties), the comma and the decimal signs are reversed in numbers.
your american exceptionalism is showing. in most of the world a period is used to mark the thousands place and a comma marks the decimal place. so $200,000.84 in the rest of the world would be $200.000,84.
@@dietotaku wow- I never knew that! You just shook my mathematical head!
@@dietotaku we americans just had to be different and create an entirely separate system
Um, for anyone that has ever been to Angola and seen the poverty there and knows how deeply corrupt the government is... This is absolutely sickening.
No, Panina, you don't make these dresses to see moms cry. You design these dresses to make money. That's why your dresses are $15.000. There are plenty of designer gowns that are just as pretty that don't require you to take out a 2nd mortgage.
The little boy with the family is cute as a button!
Sickening! Offspring of Angolans political elite spending state money while people in that country are starving. Those living on less than $2 a day are the fortunate ones. These people are absolutely revolting and shameless.🤢🤮
Ok… as a parent my self I do bust my behind to ensure my kid doesn’t feel deprived! However I will never appreciate the day that they might feel arrogant and say: no budget; my dad adores me! Spoiled brat!!
$500 for that”birdcage veil” alone??!!!! My good sweet lord.
If money were no issue , why in the world did she not go to Michael Cinco ? His gowns are always mega , over the top , absolutely gorgeous creations.
