In a second clip, she then went on to detail everything that was wrong with it – adding that the seamstress also cut off her train without even asking.
“What I wanted to do was add sleeves, but I couldn’t do it with the designer because my mum got it from a sample sale and it was out of the country,” she explained.
So the designer gave me a tonne of material to be able to add a sleeve.”

There wasn’t a shoulder on the dress and you need that for a sleeve, so when I went to the seamstress and told her that, she said she’d be able to create a sheer sleeve for me and would fill in the shoulder with a little bit of appliqué.”
However, Niki pointed out that the sleeve wasn’t sheer or taught like she’d requested, but was instead big and puffy.
