“I saw a sneak peak preview of how the dress was going to look — and I didn’t like the sneak peak,” she said.
“In my head, after talking to people, I felt like I could make alterations to it, it’ll be fine,” she added.
“It was not,” she concluded.
“I just paid the remainder of a $700 balance for a dress that I will never wear — never,” she shared.

She tried to convince herself she would wear it to a bridal shower.
“But I hate it,” she concluded.
“The moral of the story is don’t think you can design s*** in your head,” she said. “It won’t work.”
In her second video, she shared the custom $3,000 dress — a sequin-clad, strapless gown.
TikTok users were quick to the comments. One user wrote: “Okay it had potential but $3k … hell nah.”
Another user was shocked at the end product: “I didn’t think it would be that bad.”
