00:00Hi Vogue, I'm Claudia Salewski and today we are in Beverly Hills at Oscar de la Renta
00:06and we're about to have our final fitting for my wedding dress and all of the other
00:11dresses for the weekend. I'm so excited, so come on in. Let's go!
00:31I've got my mom Beata with me and my soon-to-be mother-in-law Maggie with me. I am
00:38trying on
00:38four different dresses today. There's going to be rehearsal dinner, the ceremony, the first dance
00:44reception dinner dress and the after-party dress. I think I'm most excited for the ceremony dress.
00:52I'm excited for you both to see what I look like in it and every fitting thus far has sort
00:59of been
01:00an alteration so I'm really excited to try on the final version. I'm just happy to be here and be
01:06included and get to see Claudia. I'm getting so excited and I've been dying to see you in the dress
01:13and I'm just I'm thrilled to be able to see it. How are you feeling mom? I feel so so
01:21blessed and
01:22I can't wait to see you in your beautiful dress. Oh love you so much. Shall we do it? Shall
01:31we try on some dresses?
01:43This is the rehearsal dinner. Oh my god. How beautiful is this dress? I don't know which way to face.
01:56That is slick. Wow. Insane. I'm like don't know what to do in my house. You look like a sculptor.
02:02You really do. Isn't this fabric crazy? Beautiful. You're gonna have to find reasons to turn around.
02:07I know. I know. I'm gonna be like this woman. Wow. How do you feel? I feel so womanly. Like
02:13I feel
02:13just so classy and beautiful and comfortable too, you know? Timeless. Timeless beauty. It's stunning.
02:21Skies. Wow. Wow. Turn around again. Yeah, give us the back. Okay. Oh my god. Period. I think we have
02:28some alterations that we want to do. Just some tiny little adjustments. Bringing this over so it's like
02:35an effortless drape. She's going to shorten the lining a little bit in the back because it peeks out
02:40through. And we don't need it. Yeah. So we'll just glide it. And then do we think we're shortening in
02:45the
02:45front a little bit? We do need to shorten it in the front. This here, it'll pull it and then
02:49you'll just wear
02:50some tape there. It looks so good. This fabric is like liquid. It's perfect. She is perfect. You
02:56guys like it? Wow. There we go. Shut it down. Amazing.
03:05Feels like such a long time coming. Drew and I have been talking about that as we've been writing a
03:11speech for the day and it just feels like we've all gotten to see this relationship grow over the
03:16last almost eight years. Rebecca and I were actually on the first date. Oh. So to like,
03:22I know, maybe, is that? Whatever. Yeah. We were on the first date. So to see
03:28them meet to the wedding in a couple weeks, like that's such a crazy love story that we really saw
03:36from the very beginning. It's so special and Claudia is beautiful and just everything she does is amazing.
03:41So it's so cool to be a part of this. We are so happy for them. We couldn't be more
03:48thrilled to be
03:50here. It's gonna make beautiful memories for us, for them, and for our grandchildren.
03:59We're not jumping the gun at all.
04:11The ceremony dress.
04:17Oh wow. You guys are going to make me cry. Stop. Wow. Oh my gosh. Unbelievable.
04:26Wow. That is so pretty. We were putting it on and I was saying like there's something about this
04:31dress that like just demands like silence. Yeah. Like it, like a moment of silence, you know,
04:37and this neck piece. Beautiful. I love it. The asymmetry of it. So nice. And once I turn around,
04:43just wait. Dude. It like goes down on one side. Oh, it's so pretty. Hand draped, silk file,
04:50added more volume here. So you want it to like, you know, all the way around. But she's like a
04:56little
04:56statue. Love the drop waist. Isn't it so good? Oh my God.
05:01Oh my God. Oh my God.
05:04We're going to add some boning here. And she is laced in there. Very Victorian.
05:08Yes. It's like. It's a dream dress. Yeah. Dream girl. It's my dream dress.
05:15It gets better every fitting. Every single fitting. It just crazy. Okay. Wait, I need to turn around.
05:19Yeah. Show in the back. So the scarf goes down on one side and it goes the full length of
05:25the train.
05:26Oh wow. The shoe. The shoe. The massive, the massive platform. Who's going to do that on the day?
05:32Oh my God. I love you. Who's going to do that?
05:34Well, I love those. So many hands. It's going all the way down to the floor.
05:37It's the most beautiful thing I've ever put on my body. Yeah. And I love the cut, how it just,
05:43it's
05:43sort of flat and then like dips down. This sort of feels like it caught on my neck in the
05:47wind or something.
05:48Can I bring somebody to see you? Yeah.
05:50Oh my God. I can't believe it.
05:55You look stunning. You look like an angel. Sorry to be interrupting. Love you so much.
06:00No, you're so good. I love you. I'll see you very soon.
06:04I feel like a princess.
06:12So many of the Oscar de la Renta references I was pulling had large skirts and just volume on the
06:20bottom here. The silhouette was sort of the reference that we started with and then from
06:25there just kind of built on that, the fabric, the color, the neck scarf, and here's where we've landed.
06:36While we're shortening the sides, Thomas, can you come on in and just say hi?
06:41Hi.
06:42The, uh, Thomas has been a part of every step of this journey.
06:47I've been in the back crying this whole time because it's been a really emotional.
06:51I know we were, we were lacing this up just now and looking at each other in the mirror,
06:56just like, what is happening?
06:59We've all gotten so close as a team. We're just on text and Zooms once a week at least.
07:05I know. What are we going to do when the wedding is over?
07:07I don't know.
07:07Yeah.
07:08Who are we going to text?
07:09I don't know.
07:09Each other.
07:12All right.
07:13This is the veil.
07:17Is this the actual veil?
07:18Yes.
07:19Oh my God.
07:20Oh my God.
07:21So we decided to clip it under the bun so that it just cascades down.
07:26Revolutionary.
07:29Put my hands in my pockets. We got pockets in here.
07:33Wow.
07:33She's a modern bride.
07:35Oh man.
07:36Oh man.
07:38Wow.
07:40So pretty.
07:41It really becomes real when you put them.
07:44Yeah.
07:45Oh gosh.
07:47You did it.
07:48Yeah.
07:49We're getting married.
07:53Don't you think now you want to make that ceremony a little longer?
07:56Yes.
08:16It feels so grown up in this like sexy wifey way, but it's so celebratory. So I'll be dancing in
08:24this.
08:25We did a little dance test to make sure that nothing's in the way.
08:29Oscar had done a dress that was very similar to this shape and it was in all black and you
08:36guys
08:36presented that as an option. Maybe we do this in white. And we were like, we have to. It's so
08:42good.
08:42Lace up corset with a cadet dress on top. And the best part is, I don't know if you can
08:49see,
08:49but when the light catches it at some point, there's little crystals.
08:53No way.
08:53There are little crystals in here.
08:55So you'll just see it like in certain angles when she turns, it'll be like a little surprise.
08:59And all the feathers are upcycled, which was really important to me.
09:03We're doing some.
09:04Yeah.
09:05Some tinning a bit.
09:06And a little bit in the front as well. Right.
09:09But yeah.
09:09It's so special.
09:10Oh, so special.
09:12You're going to have like.
09:13The hips.
09:14Yeah. Like, no kidding.
09:15Shake, shake, shake.
09:17Phineas hasn't seen any of these dresses. Since we're doing our first dance in this dress,
09:21I've had to be very vague about certain limitations, the ways in which he can lift me.
09:29I worry about the structure. We want to keep it intact.
09:32So I've just been like, there's an obstacle.
09:34There's an obstacle that will be sitting between us a little bit.
09:53Oh my gosh.
09:58Barbie.
09:59Wow.
10:00Are we kidding?
10:02Are we love it?
10:03Yes, we do.
10:06Same. So fun, but so beautiful.
10:08Skirt.
10:09So the skirt.
10:11The skirt.
10:12The moment.
10:13Hello.
10:14We're going to, by the way, we're going to match the shoes to the skirt.
10:17Yeah.
10:17So the shoes will be gray.
10:18This is after party indoors, 10 p.m. onward.
10:22Oh, wow.
10:23So cute.
10:24Basically, there were a few like early 2000s, 90s Oscar photos that we were pulling together
10:30from runway looks. And we felt like the boat neck felt so fresh and like different to the rest of
10:35the looks. And we made it pink.
10:38Love the pink.
10:39And the skirt's gray, because why not?
10:41Like, no one's going to expect this, for sure.
10:44So cute.
10:44I feel like a little like cupcake.
10:45Yeah, literally.
10:47Yeah.
10:47And we're getting legs.
10:48So sexy.
10:49And it's giving leg.
10:49That is so cute.
10:51Yeah.
10:51It's cute.
10:51You look insane.
10:53Got a moose.
10:54Yeah.
10:54So good.
10:56There's one more outfit, but it's not for me.
11:00Oh, it's for the doggies.
11:02It's for the doggies.
11:04I think we're going to put Moose in front and then Peaches, it's going to be resting on her,
11:11like on her back.
11:12Cute.
11:13They're going to walk down the aisle, right?
11:14And they're going to walk down as flower dogs.
11:16Yeah.
11:16That's when the tears will start for sure.
11:18And it's made from the same fabric as her dress.
11:21Is it the same color too?
11:23Exactly.
11:24We literally cut it off the same thing, made these and made her gown.
11:28They're so cute.
11:30So they have a little piece of your dress.
11:31Once we're married, we're going to walk them to cocktail hour.
11:34Oh.
11:35Consessed.
11:40At the very beginning of all of this, I remember sitting down with my stylist and being like,
11:45Oscar de la Renta, how do we make it happen?
11:47You know, I love it.
11:48And genuinely, like from the very beginning, that has been the dream.
11:51You guys are so iconic for your gowns, your bridal stories, your silhouettes.
11:56And I just couldn't be more excited and couldn't be more honored.
12:00We're so excited.
12:09Vogue.
12:10That's my final look.
12:12Let's go get married.
12:14Perfect.
12:15That's literally perfect.
12:26I don't know.
12:27Amen.
