Not many people would’ve wanted the dress the first bride loved. The bridal shop probably felt it was the last chance to sell it.
They failed themselves with this sale. First discount was offensive and they offered a second for something they can’t get rid of. Should have been the lower price from the get go.
A horrible dress.
I was catching some used car salesman vibes on the first dress too.
I thought it was gorgeous
@@oldageisdumbit’s gorgeous on the right bride. And she was the perfect bride for that dress
I fell in love with him when he said she had the most elegant back. Wow! He didn't say, her butt he looked above that and complimented her back. The lesson is, "Don't say you have $10K if you don't have it in hand.
why do people look at dresses they can't actually afford? Do you think she was hoping the fiance would say, I'll buy it!
@@ktwashere5637 I think maybe they were just there to have fun looking at some dresses, they never expected to actually buy one. I mean there could have been a serious intent to do some preliminary research/ check out different styles, fabrics, etc there to see what suits her, but not the intent to buy at that stage - they didn't have the funds available, and why buy in the US only to have to transport it back to the UK? (They do have wedding dress shops there too!)
I think they were probably shocked to hit upon such a perfect dress so early on in their search. Sad they couldn't buy it because it was extraordinarily unique and special on her, and they would have got it at a great discount.
I hope they found another 'perfect' dress when they were ready to buy. A very stylish couple!
@@ktwashere5637 no. they don't plan to buy it outright on the spot. they were vacationing from London and if you like something that expensive you usually plan and make the payment when you are ready. it was obviously just a romantic date on a romantic trip, they didn't expect to find the perfect dress and take it home with them on the spot. the questions about hoping the fiancee would buy it was uncalled for as its clear he adores her.
WHO goes to Kleinfeld shopping for a gown....says their budget is $10,000.....but doesn't have the $$$$$????
My feeling is that they may have the $10K, but after seeing the dresses in that range, they figured those dresses were not worth the price. I think if the store showed them something the bride really liked and really rocked, they would have said yes to that dress. Or, maybe the reality of spending that much for a 2-4 hour dress which will never be worn again hit them and maybe they figured the money was better spent elsewhere.
@@RoSez888 if there's any dress that's actually worth that price tag (let alone the $6k they ended up offering it to her for), it's that one. at least they didn't make a beeline for the pnina tack-nai rack like they usually do when they hear a 5-figure budget.
Clearly it happens. They expected to be putting a deposit on a dress, not walking out with a dress. The same way you go into a car dealership and "buy" a car with a down payment, you don't often fork over the entire price of the car.
They clearly just wanted to try that dress and play dress up.
Wasted their time
The first bride is absolutley breathtakingly beautiful. She could wear a paper sack and look like she's walking the runway. Her fiance is so supportive and such a sweetheart.
I was thinking the same thing. Simply stunning
Yes lovely lady. 🇨🇦🐝
The Nigerian bride was gorgeous in the White Chocolate. In Nigeria they’re modest & conservative & women don’t show a lot of skin. It was unique w the cuffs & collar, perfect for her.
There are very few women who could pull off that unique dress.
Some women would look like a clown…… but she looks fantastic!
It was not unique, it was dowdy and matronly.
Princess Diana's dress was kinda of like this heavy and to much material it was wrinkled and princess Diana could of looked beautiful in any wedding dress.
The first one of a kind dress was so gorgeous i could have NEVER left it behind the girl from Nigeria looked like a beauty queen.
They did not have the money.
She is stunning and the dress ''white chocolate'' is FABULOUS
Who else is going to buy this dress and wear it
The first dress look breathtaking on her.
I hope they at least called the next day to let them know they were not taking the dress. I know you dont need to do it, it just shows respect & class!!!
The first bride’s dress was gorgeous! I loved all the different elements that were put together to work beautifully together. It’s a shame she couldn’t fund the dress at that time. She was beautiful in it. It was made for her 🥺
The first bride is beautiful. But I believe they did not plan to commit from the start. They wanted to try dresses in a range of 10000.
I had the same impression. Something was missing in the way they were acting and didn’t feel quite genuine to me
Absolutely, they didn’t have any plans to commit to a dress.
I don't think that's right. They didn't know that they would have to purchase a sample gown. They thought they would just have to put down a deposit.
Randy mentioned that the designer was not in business anymore. That means the dress could not be made anymore. And that current dresses were to be sold as samples.
I don't know about you, but when I say I can buy a large ticket item, I usually assume that I don't have to pay the full price that day. If I had to buy a car and pay full price for it, I would have to leave empty handed.
That was a pretty unique dress. I think it looked fantastic on Sola, but it also looked heavy and they said the embroidery was mohair 😮 no good if she had a warm weather wedding & it was pretty clear the wedding wasn’t planned… she wasn’t expecting to ‘have’ to buy the dress on the day 🤷🏻♀️.
I have never seen mohair embroidery so will have to look that up. But, yes, mohair is very very warm.
if she wasn't ready to commit to a dress then she should have said so from the start.
Commiting to a dress being made just means to put down a down payment. It doesn't mean that she would have to spend the entire amount that day.
The designer wasn't in business anymore. That means a new dress could not be made because the pattern didn't exist anymore. That also means she would have to buy the sample and take it home that day.
I don't know about you, but I wouldn't expect to put up ALL the money for a bridal gown the day I ordered it.
She looked ok, but that dress was too busy.
@@catladyfromky4142 They definitely would have kept it for her with a deposit. I think they were second guessing how much they should spend on it.
Unique dress for a unique person
The white chocolate dress is a breath of fresh air in a sea of strapless clones. Absolutely beautiful!
you said it best "a sea of strapless clones."
I personally loved the white chocolate dress.
2:15 this dress looks like a night gown, no way it'll pass here or in Nigeria
That was Pnina dress. It looked amazing on a bride who paneled see through part around waist and styled it wth 20's Gatsby hair piece and hair do, paired with satin pink heels. Nobody ever outclassed that bride's take on that Pnina dress - at least on the SYTTD show. It was vintage episode as well.
@@blueice011Pnina's dresses usually do look like nightgowns or slips
@@CanMoose Ikr? Watching this show, all we can see is being pushed are her see through, corseted, bling items I dubbed 'stripper fairy' style. However, once it's paneled and thus not transparent and properly styled, as mentioned bride did, that first dress looked lovely. Pnina has many dresses that are very different in style compared to what we usually see on the show. She knows how to make a dress to fit well. Even those gaudy ones have incredible construction which is why brides often opt for her gowns - especially if they need to be supported and cinched in right places.
I was thinking the same thing. That first dress was a negative. Pretty but not for a Nigerian wedding.
Oh my gosh I just loved that white chocolate dress, it was stunning. I can’t believe she didn’t come back.😮
They totally wanted to force the girl into buying a dress that no one wanted to purchase. They tought that she would buy it under the pressure of time. Good that she didn't give in, it was a very strange dress.
You’re forgetting that she specifically asked for that dress.
I loved dress #1, it was so beautiful and her fiancé is so right about her having the most elegant back, the white chocolate dress is ok…
The chocolate dress would be good for Nigeria though as it is more conservative there. But, it looked like an elaborate housecoat to me The first dress was beautiful on her!
nah the first dress looked like a nightgown
I would have liked to see the second bride's dress with the straps. Probably more unique looking than without them.
The first dress was amazing and the bride looked amazing in it. , it's a pity she didn't get it.
The first bride should have sorted out the budget before coming to the shop. You cannot say your budget is 10000 and when the dress is offered for under 7000 you simply walk out.
She expected the normal process, which is to put a down payment on the day you choose the dress, and pay for the rest after it’s made, 6+ months later. Because this was one of a kind she needed the 7k right that moment, which didn’t fit their budget. That’s quite reasonable honestly, it’s a big change to come in expecting to put down ~2k and needing ~7k instead. It’s plausible they were saving a couple thousand a month towards the wedding, needing to reserve the venue and order the dress before anything else because of timing, and spending an extra 5k on the dress would cut into the budget for the venue deposit or something, losing them the reservation.
actually she can do whatever she wants. she can take time to buy what she wants...she will not be pressured to buy something on the spot to make a random person on YT happy. get a life.
@@machstrife exactly. someone finally gets it.
Why try on dresses if you don’t have the funds?! 😫
Because if you order a dress, you might make a deposit but the full amount won't be paid until all the alterations are done and you pick it up. SO they may not have been ready to pay the full amount that day.
Just to be on TV and they ended up looking like 🤡
@@marypeters1928I remember that one spoiled bride who lacked funds so they said they wanted at least half of the amount on the spot and expected the rest the next day.
for fun and a romantic date in an iconic ny landmark.
right
First bride just wasted everyone’s time. They clearly didn’t have the alleged $10k budget.
Not for a sample to purchase the same very day.
She just didn't wanted that ugly dress they tried her push into.
@@Anna-fm7hh She asked for that dress since she came to the store.
LOVED the 2nd bride's dress, and so beautiful on her.
Have seen pics of that White-Chocolate dress before on Pinterest (?) and never knew who the designer was. I love that dress!! It looked stunning on her. I think that it is a missed opportunity!!
I absolutely love this unique, stunning dress. And the bride is stunning & wears it very well.
My daughter chose a wedding dress that was $5,000 and she had it all changed to the way she wanted it that cost a few thousand dollars more. It was very heavy. My own wedding dress back in 1978 cost $300 dollars that's all i could afford as a 18 year old girl. I didnt live it but it was for one day. I still have it and both of my suster in laws wire it for their weddings.
The first dress on the first bride looked like a nightgown on her. The second dress was overpowering and detracted from how pretty she was. I think it was a show dress for the runway. The designers go over the top for runway shows, but some of those dresses are just unrealistic for a real bride. (I hated the collar and the cuffs!) I wonder if those two were just playing and not really looking for a dress?
To be fair, they were on vacation abroad. It was clear that they were just looking, and that’s OK.
I agree with everything you've said. That dress was very unique and would suit very specific person, both body and personality wise. It's dramatic and couture like. It takes diva chic attitude to pull it off without being overpowered by it, together with statuesque body - tall, slim with just bust size and great posture. The bride had the right personality for it, but her figure was too delicate for it. The dress was wearing her ultimately. I can see why it couldn't sell, being 12K originally, white chocolate color and with mohair lace. Debbie was right - very few brides would vibe with that dress, or they do, something else would be an issue - color, price tag, the fact that it didn't fit.
She had no intention of getting a dress. She was playing dress-up. She was pushed into a corner with the White Chocolate dress,. She said she had a budget of $10K. Based on the price, if she wanted that dress, she had no reason not to get it.
I agree. What a manner to waste their time just to be on TV.
No. Paying attention to the video is fundamental.
The designer stopped designing. That means his (or her) dress patterns were not available anymore to make a new dress.
That also means that she would have to buy the sample, not just place a down payment for a new dress.
That then means that she wouid have to come up with the entire $9,000 plus tax that very day. They may have had a few thousand, but not the entire amount to take the dress home.
And since Kleinfeld could not guarantee that the sample would be there the next time she came in - from the UK - she decided against it. It would be easier to settle on a different dress that was new (not just a used sample gown) from the UK instead of the hassle of flying the dress home with them.
It makes a whole lot more sense when one listens to the details of what happened.
@@catladyfromky4142If so, that is sad as Kleinfield expects the full payment or at least half of it. It is sad that they don’t have the money but yet wants such an expensive dress.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj they have the money, they didn't want a sample.
The first couple was playing wedding-wedding. They were not going to buy a dress.
They didn't know they would have to buy the sample. They thought they could out down a down payment. But Randy said that the designer wasn't in business anymore, so she could only buy the dress that was already made.
Sometimes paying attention during the video helps clear up any assumptions you may have. Just a thought.
Why have a price point that you can't afford?
No way did they talk her into trying this thing on. I’m so glad she left it there. She had such a gorgeous figure…
Except she told Debbie she wanted to try it on lol
yeah, lol, she asked for that specific dress...she rocked it
That was a beautiful dress she looked like a princess. ❤️
why does no one in the comments understand that many cultures do not think its appropriate for a bride to wear a 'sample'? they have to wear something brand new that has not been on any one else's body. the part where the consultants and randy kept repeating 'I haven't seen it look that good on anyone else that's tried it on' was so cringe. imagine marrying your man, having your dream wedding and having to wear something that dozens of women have tried on? its gross. the dress is spiritually contaminated by other peoples energy. so its sacrilegious.
If the designer was still making that dress and she could order it brand new, shipped to her in London it would have been a different equation and a different conversation.
Please expand your minds and stop belittling the woman and her fiancé for taking a decision of their choice rather than being pressured into paying for a sample. Never let your wedding dress be the result of FOMO.
She's an elegant queen and Im sure she found the perfect dress when the timing was right.
I think that the first bride thought that by being on the show they'd give her the dress. There was another bride I saw once where she chose a dress way out of her families budget. Fam says yes. Randy tells them to think it over.
Just because a person says their price point, doesn't mean they have the money.
Omg, mohair embroidered. This was just waiting for her. It’s beautiful.
She is a real life Fairytale Princess! The way she looks, carries herself and sounds!
Such a lovely couple. So heart warming to see lovers joining together to be a life long team.
As a man who has only been watching this show for a short time, even I know that most of these women are paying a percentage as a deposit and not dropping $6-7k same day for a dress. All you women leaving these weird, nasty, back-handed comments should know this and probably do, but instead choose to pretend to be obtuse so you can comfortably speak negatively about someone else. That's caddy and sad.
The Nigerian bride looks so elegant. ❤
That's Lady Danbury ah look
Good that the 1st bride walked out because they wanted to sell that dress nobody else would have taken and not to find her a perfect wedding dress. Sellers :(
Lots of dresses look terrible on some brides…but snarky comments here are just unkind
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. I, for one, thought it looked stunning on her. But other people can think differently. Policing opinions is dangerous.
The first bride had no intention of purchasing a $10,000 dress!!! She just wanted to try on the dress. Wasting everyone's time.
wow! she looked regal and fashion forward!
Oh my goodness, they both are gorgeous people
I ended up buying the second wedding dress I tried on. I knew nothing could top it!
The first bride seemed to be there to just try and be in the shop. Didnt feel like they d buy it even if it was super cheap. She had come to see the dress and go wear a different one
The Nigerian bride did herself a favour not buying that second dress.it was horrible thank goodness theres only one,and thats one too many.
What a beautiful girl and with her fiancé they make a good looking couple. The dress looks fabulous on her, wow!
Bride number two has her father’s eyes.
Girl from London wasn’t ready to purchase, she didn’t have a date or, a definite location, she was just playing dress up!
No. She wanted to put down a deposit for a new gown. That was not possible anymore, since the designer stopped designing. Therefore, Kleinfeld had to sell the dress as a sample. That is why it was discounted but she would have to pay the entire amount.
They never had the money to begin with. They wasted the staffs time. An ultimate 40%+ discount is fabulous for such a one of a kind avant garde Baroque gown. She knew what she wanted, the gown was in her budget but she was playing dress up and wasting the staffs time. If the gown was way under her budget then why didn’t she take it. She was playing bride.
Nope. She was not intending to buy a sample gown (with the entire amount of the cost). She thought she could order a gown and put down a deposit. But since the designer wasn't in business anymore, there could be no more orders and Kleinfeld had to sell all his dresses as samples.
I don't think they were honest about the budget
That was such a unique dress
I think the first bride came to look if she found one she probably thought she was going to get one off the showroom floor and usually it takes a couple months to get your dress so you can come and get measured and then they order you your dress, but you still have to put a deposit on that she liked so they can order it in the size that you are, which would’ve at least taken a good six months and that way she could’ve just put the deposit down and then came and back and pay for the rest of the dress when she came back for a fitting or to pick it up so she can take it home with her and get it altered in her country because I say six out of 10 are not really prepare to actually pay anything over five grand in one go so more than likely she probably took note of the designer, and since it was pretty much public knowledge on the television on which dress she’d like to seam or something similar and either got it made from a seamstress or actually purchased something similarshe has them took quite a few pictures
Let’s take a moment to acknowledge the editor who did the first bride for the show. They said $10,000 and the editor managed to not show us the fiancé’s full face! Well done.
huh? you definitely see the fiance's full face. he was there for the entire appointment.
@@dietotaku watch again, the editing is brilliant. Whoever did it was good. It’s smooth, the cuts are there. Perhaps I should have typed that it wasn’t a full reaction.
…you literally see his full face at 0:17
@@emilyjameson5820 I am referring to what’s been edited OUT. The full reaction. If you are not able to understand that you are seeing snippets, not a full reaction, I can’t be any more helpful. If you want to argue it, I’m not the one.
Yes!!! This is the episode I've been looking for!!! 😍😍😍😍😍
I'm so confused, she flies to NY all the way from London knowing exactly what she wanted, only to leave without the exact dress she wanted?
That white chocolate dresses perfect 👏👏👏👏... But I guess a lot of people go to that store just to try on dresses, just say hey I tried on some dresses at Kleinfeld 😮💨
.
The first bride…..❤ the dress on her……the vail set it off😊
It's not like they'll EVER sell that dress to anyone else. It's already reduced, the designer gave up, if they didn't sell it then it would have been binned. All the same, she loved it, it looked georgous.
Other than the polkadot dress from a different episode that white chocolate dress has to be my all time favorite! I can't believe she didn't pick it! It was so dang unique I've never seen any wedding dress like it. If I had a good figure and the money I would go and buy that dress for my wedding next year. I'm not even joking! I want that dress!!
Wasting everyone's time when you know you don't have the money
The Nigerian bride is stunning. Stu. Nning!
She'd look good in any dress
😊
The first brides budget is up to $10000.00 and you bring out a nightgown as the first dress?
I mean… I get they are traveling and transferring money might be difficult but I find it very difficult someone else will be walking in asking for that dress in particular 😂 so them not being able to hold it doesn’t seem realistic. As well as she knew dog gone well she could have gotten that dress made while I feel like that’s what ended happening!! Came in to try it on to see if she liked it and then boom 😂😂
I am actually glad that the first bride did not come back for that monstrosity of a dress. The consultants were so quick to put it on sale because nobody else wanted it.
They most certainly did. And each time someone's gushing over how sweet they are, perhaps a reminder that they are in sales on commission type of business might be in order. We can't take against them, it's their job to do everything to sell, especially pieces that proved to be difficult to sell for whatever reason. Speaking of which, I wouldn't say the dress was a monstrosity. It was fantastic dress for the right person. It's a dramatic dress with couture vibe, that takes certain figure - tall, slender with bust, but not overly delicate - plus the right personality. Otherwise the dress would be wearing the bride, not the other way around. On top of this, the dress was originally priced over $12K, has mohair lace and is white chocolate color. No wonder they couldn't sell it. It takes lots of luck to find the bride with that kind of budget, personality, figure and taste which will look good in it. This bride did look good in that dress because she has the right personality for it and can pull it off. However, the dress was visually overpowering her - she needed to be slightly taller and with ever so slightly less delicate frame in order to suite that dress perfectly.
@@blueice011BS. she looked amazing in that dress.
That's why it cracked me up when they were reluctant to hold it for her.
Former bride who tried on the dress and is watching the show at home, Randy says his thing about no one looking as beautiful in it.
🤔🤬
It was the bride that wanted to try that dress on, but even though she looked elegant in it, it was too heavy. The consultants needed to get rid of the elephant dress gone and they cut the price way down. That says something is wrong and I am glad she did not buy it. This young bride needs something light and elegant and yet she said that wedding dresses in Nigeria pop with color and yet they are tasteful, this dress was not for her. She did the right thing.
They didn't "cut the dress way down." They intended to sell the dress as a sample. And all sample gowns are discounted. It is not wise to assume...
Sola ended up having a traditional Nigerian wedding in a traditional Nigerian dress and she looked amazing.
I would totally consider that dress. I think I would mod it just a bit, but I'd love to pull it off!
What a fantastic dress and she looks great in it!
people don't give a price if you truly don't have it, the one lady with the chocolate dress , they find it and now you can't even get . seriously stop
She's so beautiful in that dress
Nigerian weddings are breathtakingly beautiful!!
Maybe she needed to try it. Perhaps she saw it listed somewhere but didn't want to order without trying it on.
I hate when they bring the fiancé, I guess Im old fashioned but seeing the bride for the first time as she comes down the aisle is priceless.
lovely couple BUT with all due respect, look again the cloth, the handbag, the hair - they didn't have that $10.000 to by a dress in Kleinfeld.
Actually you have no idea how much money people have based on what they're wearing, or their hair. I've known multimillionaire philanthropists who carry canvas tote bags around.
@@joralemonvirgincreche and that's how they stay millionaires.
Absolutely no money and no respect. Wasting everyone’s time.
They were mad about bringing the fiance in other episode, but they are so happy about this one lol. Are these all fake?😭
Love the back out but the wow factor is missing.
She pulled off everything! Love the first dress but I'd like to see spaghetti straps her body she's stunning.. what a personality ❤
She probably felt pressured to like the dress and couldn’t say no, that’s why they abandoned the dress.
She left the dress because it was 9k. And they couldn't order the dress and pay it off slowly. She had to buy the sample. They couldn't even hold the dress for 1 day. She would need 9k in 1 day or loose the dress. Most people wouldn't do that even with the budget
As an African woman, no. Both dresses did not suit an African wedding dress.
I think she was going back and forth whether she wouid have a wedding in the UK or Africa. A wedding in UK that is more regal with less skin showing would be a good mix for her, in my opinion.
I love your flower tie Randy ❤
I really hate crumb catcher necklines. But that modified one looked really pretty on her. Thank goodness her bust is small. I would never be able to get away with that.
The first bride should have taken that dress. The dress was absolutely gorgeous on her. No other person could pull that dress off like she did. It was a shame that she didn’t come back for it. The budget was $10,000 and they brought the price down to $6,999. How could she pass that dress up. That’s a crime of fashion. It was within the budget I just don’t get it. This was a waste of time she should be ashamed of herself for not taking the dress.
That dress the first bride liked was hideous, lmao. I wish her the best, but that was horrible. 🤣
White chocolate is gorgeous but not for a wedding. Definitely Cruella . Vibes. Guess they have no cash and almost 50% off. Problem is they can recreate it for much less in Nigeria
The first bride was beautiful and would look great in anything. I think they were just window shopping. And not ready to make a decision. Also I don’t think they could afford it. Even marked down
They didn’t have THE MONEY because they DO NOT HAVE MONEY! They just wanted to be on this show! 😮
They can afford to fly around from London to the U.S. and Nigeria so clearly they have some money.
@@joralemonvirgincreche maybe they just budgeted for travel, meals, and lodging expenses. I thought they said they would have to transfer the $ from London.
They didn't have the entire purchase price. They probably budgeted for the down payment. She didn't know she would have to purchase the sample as opposed to just ordering one. They also would have had to fly the dress home too, and that is more work.
So they tried to do a "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a burger today" 😂 gtfo lol ☠️
What are you talking about? They didn’t do that lol
@thehungrygoldfish they didn't have money for the dress.... they said their budget was 10gs buy didnt have it... so it's like "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" it's OK if u don't get it lol
@@charlenesearlesrod5 Eh, I think the problem is I interpreted the statement differently than what you intended. I interpreted it as “I’ll take the dress now and I’ll pay you later.” Not having the intention of buying a dress is something entirely different.
@@thehungrygoldfish yah if u grew up in the 80s n 90s u would get the joke lol
Why tf did she say her budget was 10,000 and then turns out they didnt even have 7 for the dress?! Ppl are just stupid!!!
D couple just came to do window shopping I feel...wen she said hr budget only I cudnt believe 🙄
The fiancé kinda looks like a black Joe Goldberg 😂
Will it now go back on sale for ( one of ) the original price(s), or will the eventual buyer get it for under $7.000 ? !!
Why are you shopping for a dress when you don't have the money readily available to pay for it? Especially when you find the one you want. That's horrible to waste those sales peoples time.
I love her accent
