That is so disappointing! Are you getting your alterations done there?

Re: SOOOO MAD ABOUT MY FIRST DRESS FITTING!!!

Why would the designer send the dress without beading? That makes no sense! I'm sorry you have to go through all this

Re: SOOOO MAD ABOUT MY FIRST DRESS FITTING!!!

I'd demand my money back if I were you - if the beading isn't done than the product they are trying to give you is not your gown. They owe you big time for this - how do they propose the beading will get done?

Why don't you call the designer to find out if that's their normal process.

Your dress is gorgeous by the way... hope everything works out!

what?! no way....designers don't send their dresses to you in "stages"!!! I am so pissed off FOR YOU right now - that is just so unprofessional of them to send you a gown that isn't even finished...the nerve!

I have never heard of a dress being sent in stages either. To be honest something doesn't sound right - you definatly have to call the manufacturer yourself and find out the deal.

Re: KENNETH POOL BRIDES..HELP!! URGENT..SOOOO MAD ABOUT MY FIRST DRESS FITTING!!!

i'm so sorry to hear about this! your dress is gorgeous and i would figure since you are paying so much money for a dress from a salon reputable enough to even carry these dresses, that they would be a little bit more professional in their dealings! i'ts bad enough they have the dress w/out the beading but hte BS excuses just make ppl's blood boil to hear. atleast be straightforward! i hope you dont' stress too much. just think in the end you will have a gorgeous dress that you will look great in!!!!!

Re: KENNETH POOL BRIDES..HELP!! URGENT..SOOOO MAD ABOUT MY FIRST DRESS FITTING!!!

Unless your gown was being custom made and you had specific appointements/fittings w/ the DESIGNER your gown should absolutely NOT have been shipped without the beading - I know it's "Kenneth Poole for Amasle......" But have to you tried to contact the Amsale boutique directly ? Could they possibly shed some light on the situation ? I know it's located in Manhattan, I just can not remember where ..........Madison or 5th Ave.
For that name and price.........My gown was a Yolanda Coutrue, hand beaded - EVERY single bead was in place when the gown arrived. My friend had an Amsale gown, a button was missing when it arrived and it was sent back to Amsale for a BUTTON - Your gown should NOT be without all of the intircate beading

ETA I CAN NOT wait to see the pics of your wedding b/c that gown is AMAZING !!!!!!

Re: KENNETH POOL BRIDES..HELP!! URGENT..SOOOO MAD ABOUT MY FIRST DRESS FITTING!!!

oh my gosh!

i can't believe that happened! i have been dying to see the pics of your fitting!!! your dress is so pretty!

i have never heard of a dress being shipped without beading before. But don't panic! i'm sure there is some logical explanation for this, and maybe that is the way the beading actually does get done sometimes? the dress is beautiful, and your salon has a good reputation, so have faith that it will all work out! You will be a gorgeous bride ! In the meantime, i would suggest hounding the salon until you get an explanation that is appropriate.

Good luck!

Re: KENNETH POOL BRIDES..HELP!! URGENT..SOOOO MAD ABOUT MY FIRST DRESS FITTING!!!

I'm sorry you are going through this but it sounds like BS.

I would contact the designer directly by phone and ask them if this is standard procedure (which I doubt it is.) Then I would demand a refund of the alterations cost and take it elsewhere to be altered!!!

sorry you went through that.
i have never heard of the dress comming in without the beading. did you change your order somehow.
the beading is usually done over seas that is alot of beading to be done in one week.
i hope they make good on there word.

otherwise from the pict the dress is beautiful!!!!

good luck

Re: UPDATE!!!KENNETH POOL BRIDES..HELP!! URGENT..SOOOO MAD ABOUT MY FIRST DRESS FITTING!!!

Sorry to hear about your dress....I love Kenneth Pool...I almost got his dress too (I tried yours on)..I met him at the Wedding Salon...nice skinny guy....

anyway...certain designers do dresses in stages...I know it for a fact because Reem Acra (my designer does that...Kenneth worked at Reem before he started his own label and I guess does the same.....

My dress is made in the US but the beading work is hand made in India and then put on the dress.....don't worry it will be beautiful...I am just surprised that they called you before the dress was completed.....

Love your dress!!!!
