So I have been looking at gowns just to get an idea of what I like. Everything I look at brings me to Kenneth Pool, a designer that is out of my budget. I just found out that he is having a trunk show next weekend in Manhasset. With the discount I would get at a trunk show is most likely the only way I could afford his dresses. The only thing I would have to be ready to buy. I feel like it is so soon. Not sure what to do. I planned on looking for gowns this summer when I have off from work. What is a trunk show discount usually?

Re: Bridal Kenneth Pool Trunk Show
At a trunk show you can expect to get a 10-15% discount, which is equivalent to a few 100 dollars. If you buy a sample at a sample sale you can get it for atleast 30% less, sometimes for half price or better. If you are registered at the knot.com you will get notifications letting you know when is the next Kleinfeld sample sale. Also, I recommend that you register at topbutton.com. It emails you about every sample sale in your area including bridal sales. Also, you might want to check out bridepower.com, bridecouture.com, saks 5th avenue, preownedweddingdresses.com, and believe it or not, ebay. Kenneth Pool is one of my top favorite designers so trust me honey....I did ALOT of research on him.

Re: Bridal Kenneth Pool Trunk Show
im not sure but i think it depends on the trunk show. I went to a jim heljm trunk show and i think it was either a 15%-20% dicount, i could be wrong but i think thats what it was. I know how you feel I ordered my gown already I felt like i was crazy but I totally fell in love with it and knew I didnt want anything else ( I even had a dream about it after the first time i tried it on) I was affraid of not being able to find it or having it be discontinued so i put a deposit down and ordered it, i just knew i couldnt have anyother dress then that one. So i have my dress ordered but I dont have a RH or date yet...so as long as you find something you love and cant imagine getting married without it then no...go ahead order it. gowns take months to come in anyway

Re: Bridal Kenneth Pool Trunk Show
I think it depends on the designer, the location of the sale and the dresses for sale. There's a lot that goes into it

Re: Bridal Kenneth Pool Trunk Show
I got my gown at a trunk show and was able to save alot on it... about 15%, its Platinum for Priscilla of Boston, and was designed bKenneth Pool, who is now designing for them. Had no clue until I went to try the dress on, I love Kenneth Pool as well and vowed to have one of his gowns, and unexpectantly I ended up with one!

Please you do not have to buy at the trunk show, they will always give you the discount. If you go there, and tell them you want to think it over, they will honor that discount since you were at the trunk show.
I took a while til i made up my mind, so dont feel like you have to decide right then and there its 100% NOT TRUE
