A 21-year-old model in Heidelberg, Germany, Alena Yildiz, is all over the news after revealing in a TikTok video that she was uninvited to her close friend’s wedding. The reason she was uninvited is funny, and people are already pissed off and calling out her friend.
Alena Yildiz says that she was uninvited after looking “too good” in the dress that the bride chose for her. Some women naturally glow in any dress they style themselves in, and I don’t blame Alena. She’s pretty and has got the curves to fit beautifully into any outfit.
In a video posted on December 13, which had over 10 million views at the time of writing, she wrote: “My close friend uninvited me to her wedding because she thought I looked too good in the dress she chose for me.” The video continued with images of Yildiz in the dress with the caption, “Still took some fire pics in it though.”
Yildiz told Insider she was due to be a bridesmaid at the wedding in early December, alongside five other women, before her friend said she felt upstaged. “That’s why she chose such an extravagant dress for me — all of our other friends wore extravagant dresses as well, but she only had a problem with me,” she said.
Yildiz said the blue and tan embellished dress designed by Albina Dyla cost her 1,200 euros, or about $1,360, with each bridesmaid paying for her own outfit. The tulle dress had a corset with a mermaid neckline and leaf detailing, as well as a thigh-high side slit.
The model said she sent a video of herself wearing the dress to the bride, whose identity Yildiz said she didn’t want to disclose, shortly before the wedding. “She called me and told me about her insecurities with my dress — that it was too attention-grabbing,” Yildiz said.
“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,” she said. Yildiz added that she thought the bride should have chosen a different dress if she were worried.
Her friend wasn’t lying because she looked fire in the dress. She might have had the groom reconsidering some things.
