Alena Yildiz’s dress was made by designer Albina Dyla and cost $1,360.
During the fittings, the model reportedly sent a video of herself wearing the dress to the bride. The latter immediately called her fuming with anger. Alena Yildiz said:
"She called me and told me about her insecurities with my dress; that it was too attention-grabbing. She was very angry about the whole situation and ended up uninviting me after the call. We got into a fight because it made no sense to me since she chose that dress herself.”
The model stated that all the bridesmaids were asked to wear the same dress. Yildiz was left curious as to why she was the only one who was flagged for her outfit.
