I hope everyone is doing fantastic! It was a short weekend for me at Kleinfelds, because of father's day. We were closed on Sunday, which gave me the day off to spend with Nate. Nate arrived Saturday night and was in NYC until Wednesday evening! It was a ton of fun! We did a bunch of tourists things to do including, Grand Central Terminal, Times Square, Museum of Natural History, World Trade Center, Museum of Life, Staten Island Ferry, Chinatown and Little Italy. I attached at the bottom of this blog some pictures from our adventures and also a video clip of this awesome dance group we saw in Times Square. I have attached the YOUTUBE link I created for it, it is incredible!!! Times Square, For only having three days to complete this all, we sure hit a lot of hot spots! It was a blast!!!
As for Kleinfelds, I did have a interesting day on Tuesday. There was a huge problem with a bride and a dress. A bride had come in about eight months ago and purchased a bridal dress by Henry Roth. Keasha had told me it was a fantastic sale and everyone was extremely happy. The dress was simple, with satin fabric and small details including a couple of flowers on the bodice part. Well, Keasha got a call last week from the Alterations down stairs that the bride was here for her first fitting, she was CRYING!!! I guess when the dress came in, about two weeks ago, and the bride put it on last week, it was completely different then the one she tried on in the store. This is weird and has never happened. I guess what happened was the sample dress did not have the flowers all over the bodice, like 5 flowers total, but the dress that came in had about 20 flowers on the bodice. The bride was furious and so were the owners of Kleinfelds. Asking Keasha how she could not remember if there were this many flowers or not, etc. It was a mess. Keasha expressed to me she was upset because the dress design was completely different and it was not her fault at all, and that they were going to take her sale away. This Tuesday we found out that the sample dress that the bride had tried on many months ago was not being made anymore and that Henry Roth never sent Kleinfelds the new sample dress. It was terrible! Everyone looked bad in this situation even the bride because people were telling her she was crazy and that indeed there were flowers on the bodice. It was a mess, I felt so bad just standing there as the bride is crying, as Keasha is crying with the bride and screaming, and the owners are on the phone with Roth. It was a rough situation, after everything though, the bride had to find a new dress and rush fit it for her in less than a month for her wedding. In this situation, then Kleinfelds will have her look at sample sale dresses that can be taken off the rack and bought that day and alterations applied as soon as possible.
It was a rough day for that bride and I felt terrible for everyone,
Hopefully Thursday is much better!!!
Hope all is well
Happy Endings From NYC:)
