Melissa is the baby sister of Jersey Shore's
The Situation, and she's come to Kleinfeld with the rest of her family, the
Sorrentinos, for a show stopping gown. I've wanted to come to Kleinfeld since I was
a little girl. I always would say to my mother, I said,
when I get engaged, I'm going to go to Kleinfeld. I'm going to try on a Pnina
Tornai dress. That's gorgeous. Melissa and I are best
friends. We're super close and she means the world to
me. Frank is holding the train, right? Yes he is. My brothers are here today because their
opinions matter so much to me. He walks behind me. Flower petals. I'm their only sister. Oh. Glitter. Surprise. I think even if I told them not to come, they
would have came anyway. It looks like a Cinderella dress. My name is Michael The Situation Sorrentino. When it comes to the Sorrentino family, it
is definitely a family affair. Are you wearing a special outfit to hold the
train? No. Everyone is going to chime in on their
opinions. That's not good. Me and Melissa probably have
the closest relationship out of everyone. Why is it called the Train Man? I'm the voice of reason in this family. It's a train because it follows. You and a caboose. No, Frank, there's no caboose. I'm the fashion guy. I'm here today to make sure that she looks
the best on her wedding day. This, to me, is. This is a must. She has to try this one on. No, no, no, no. That's not for me. Look at how I'm dressed here. Like this is 100% perfection here. If she doesn't take advice from me, she's
taken it from the wrong person. Oh. Hello, everyone. Hi. Hi, I'm Antonella, nice to meet you. Nice to meet everyone. I always wanted to try a panino tornai dress. I am a die hard romantic. I love crystals and pearls and anything
that's really embellished. What do you think? What you should wear. Whatever you know makes her feel comfortable. There has been times with my brothers that
they have thought that my shirt was too revealing. Anything that was a little too sexy, my. Skirt was too short change. My jeans were tight. Change. See through. Change. Believe me, I've heard it all. You could stay in the house like that, but if
you leave, you could put sweatpants on. Yeah. There are critics. I feel like when you know. You know, like when I met my fiance, I knew. Well, how did you meet? We met through him. You know, you're the troublemaker, the
matchmaker. Come on, Mike. Now, we went to high school together. My fiance's name is Michael Sussman, and we
met at a party that my brother Michael was throwing. And a couple of weeks later, we
happened to meet up again. We got talking, and then the next day was
our very first date. And four and a half years later, here we
are. He's just really great to me and he's really
great to my family. Okay, so we're going to start with this. We'll see what happens. Dress one for Melissa is a $10,800 Pnina
Tornai ball gown embellished with tons of bling and tulle. Tell me who's the hardest one to please? Mark is the most conservative. I'm just there to support. I'm like in every dress. But the hardest to please is Frank. Okay, well, let's see what they think. Okay. I like. The tool. And I like the foot. Let me see the front. Turn around. Frank. I'm not digging it. And that's coming from a style guy. It just reminds me of. Like, Madonna. Ha ha ha. Frank blurts out that she looks like
Madonna. Like a virgin like Blonde Ambition tour. I'm like looking at it now. Do I want to look in, like, 1980s Material
girl living in a material world? No. Not happening. The top looks like a beautiful negligee. Oh, no, this is not what I'm going for. Like, that's. That's the Knighty Knight part. What do you know about that? I'm just saying. That's the Knighty knight
part. I know nothing about 99. Just saying. That's Knighty knight. Nighty night. All right, we'll be back. All right. For dress two, Melissa is excited to try the
ball gown she's been admiring since her engagement. I feel like I feel like I feel like a
princess in this dress. I am in love with this dress. It's the satin. It's the color. It's the beading. Wow. I love this on you. I've been waiting many, many years to try on
this dress. And finally I get to this. Might be it. This might be it, not me. Second try. On. Meanwhile, Mike, Frank and her mom get up
and into the racks. That was the dress that I had suggested that
she try on. This was the one. Yes, this. I think she's going to look great in this. I personally. I'm not a fan of it. Going there down. Mike, what do you think? I think we're not interested in what your
personal opinion is. I'm just listen, I'm very opinionated and my
opinion is the one that counts. Are you kidding me? This is my idea. Come on. Your idea? My idea to try this dress on. Do you want to try this dress on? Maybe Frank wants to try this dress on. And actually, I think he would. We have. We have another dress. Close your eyes. Close your eyes. Close your eyes. Eyes closed. I'm just trying to handle this. Close your eyes. Turn around. Close your. Eyes. Go. All right. Don't peeking. Melissa leaves her brother's pick in the
fitting room to show off her dream panina ball gown. Oh, straight to the mirror. All right, so I think it's very nice. I like it. That is pretty. I love the top. Yeah. What do you think? I think this is
this. Is a nice. Yeah. The other one was bad. Like lost in the sauce. All right. He doesn't he's he's lost in the
sauce. The sauce. But I'm just saying it reminds me
of, like lost. In the sauce. Do you come to my house? I'll make you a nice meatballs and
spaghetti. Yeah, and it ain't sauce. It's gravy. No. It's sauce. Who said gravy? It's not sauce, it's gravy. Are you kidding? Sauce? Is he kidding? I'm just like, oh, come on,
it's sauce. It's definitely sauce when. It comes to sauce. Us Italians, we are very passionate. But at the same time, aren't we here to look
at wedding dresses? How do you feel? I love this dress. Did you hear that, everybody? I love this dress. I feel. Like this is the quintessential. Panina dress. How many people get this dress? It's like stole my look. Yeah. That's it. To be honest with you, I don't care that
everyone has had this dress before. If there was no other dresses to try on, I
would be saying yes to this dress. I'll come back. All right, come back. I'll go make a little mottarone caprese and
bring some some ragu. Back to the fitting room and into dress
three, another panini tornai chosen by her brothers. This reminds me of the top from the other
dress with a different bottom. So this is a panini tonight and it's 9800. Okay? No. And the faces. There's never silence in this group unless
it's really, really bad. I like the other one better because I want a
little more pomp and circumstance. Beautiful dress. You belong in the ball gown. Okay. I think it looks beautiful on you, but I
agree, I like the other one better now. So what's your role in the wedding? Man of honor. And you're going to be holding the train. Whatever she needs me to do, and. You're going to be fluffing her up like this. Lord knows he is a fluffer. Frank is probably the brunt of most of the
family's jokes. You know. What is is he's got middle brother syndrome. He's stuck in the middle, and he's so
jealous of me. You know what? It's because I'm the first. I'm the best looking. I'm going to tell you one thing. You all look alike. Wait. Don't insult me like that. Don't. And I will tell you another thing. Tell me. I will tell you another thing. We all look alike. When someone says I am
the best looking. I am the best looking. Guess what? They're not. They're not because you are. You are trying to convince people. Oh no no no no no no, I'm convinced. You are trying. I'm convinced, I'm convinced. Hello? Nobody was talking to me. I only tried this dress on for them. Hello. This is about Melissa. It's not about you. You and you. You realize that I sat down. First of all, Frank is always talking about
himself, so I'm not surprised the conversation went here. Exactly. That's the first thing. You're supposed to be the man of honor. You're supposed to be like, oh, Melissa, it
looks nice. You look beautiful. You're talking about how you're the best
looking. Does your mouth ever shut up? No, no. And it's not going to. Frank. Shut up. Please. Melissa, what do you think about the draft? Let's get back. It's about you, love, not about them. This ain't it. That's not the one. No, it's a beautiful gown. I'm sure it'll look beautiful on somebody
else. Just not for me. Melissa is on to dress for of the day thanks
to her picky, outspoken entourage. I love the top to this holy holy moly. Meanwhile, brother Mike is caught by Nicole
while poking around on his own. What are you doing in here? At this particular point, my sister has tried
on many dresses. I actually I was thinking about just picking
out one more dress, something different. I want to make her. You know, feel special
and pick the right dress. Something like this would be great on her. It's got a little bit of beading, it's got a
little flare on the bottom, and it's fitted to her body where all the other ones are
kind of big. What do you think? I like it. Let's listen. What's the worst that she can
say? She hates it. We don't make it. Listen, this is a big decision, okay? I know big decisions we don't take lightly. We don't want any situations at the wedding. No situations. The only situation is. Let's bring this dress back. Melissa is ready to show off this fit and
flare Mark Zunino, but doesn't get very far. I mean, a not like we got something a little
floral. Floral. I love the word. Love it. Floral. He's very. Cute. It sort of has that wow factor. And this could be the one. And you like that one? Well no I don't. It looks like a bachelorette. That might be what she wants to wear a
bachelorette party. The showing of the chest area. This dress is definitely too sexy. Big overprotective brothers coming out in
this. We got too. Much boobies, right? Yeah. You don't? Yeah. You don't like none of this? I don't want to be over the top. Sexy. I need his approval today in order to
get a dress. So, out of courtesy to Mike, Melissa takes
off the one strapped gown and tries on his flower forward frock. It's a beautiful dress. It's not for you. Not for me. This more. This this this reminds me of lingerie. This is. First of all, it's not the shape for you. It's not. Second of all, you look like a
mermaid. I'm going to take this off now. Okay? Meanwhile, mom can't stop thinking about a
ball gown for her baby girl. I have a vision in my own mind of what I want
her to look like, or what I think she should be wearing. I got I got something else. I'm just like, oh, why are you bringing in
another dress? We have to keep trying. Until we find we have to keep trying. What are we going to be here to have to get
her to try this dress on? It's just absolutely gorgeous. And I could just picture her in it. Let's try it. Right. Let's try it just for you. Peachy. I know, all. Right, I'll be outside. All right. Go dress six. A tall ball gown by Marc Zunino is mom's
pick. Oh! Oh. Wow. Oh, oh, it just got chills. I just got chills. Melissa. That's beautiful. I feel beautiful in this dress. Very romantic and very feminine. What do you think? Yeah. You look like an angel. Oh, she really does. Yeah, you really do. Oh, mom. Oh, mom. My mom is crying. My brothers are all on the same page. Tissues. I'm crying because I know deep down this is
the dress for her. I like it, I like it. I think it's very, very. I like the layers. I think it's very
sophisticated looking. I think it, I think it's you. But the main thing is how do you feel in it? It's your wedding. It's your. Wedding. You like the other one? It's. A toughie. They're both beautiful dresses. I love the Panina and I came here for a satin
bejeweled ball gown. And this Marc Zunino dress is nothing like
that. Maybe we should flip a coin. This one or the other one or. The other one is very showy. Yeah, this is very regal. So that's where you're at? I'd rather go regal than showy. Yeah, I'd rather go regal and showy. I always knew this day would come, but I
didn't think it was going to come so soon. Am I crying? I'm not crying. No. I'm fine. Cries for. Everything. I'm not crying. I did shed a tear. I did shed a tear. Woo hoo! When I was looking at myself head on in the
mirror. I knew right then and there this was the
dress that I was supposed to marry my queen. All right, gentlemen, come this way. I'm going to say yes to the dress if she
doesn't. Melissa. Are you saying yes to the dress? Yes. Melissa is no longer lost in the sauce with
her $8,250 Mark Zunino strapless gown with a leaf appliquéd bodice. Come here, big boy. Get over. Here. What makes this dress so special is
that less is more. Save the best for last. The last dress. Wow, I feel amazing. I'm so excited. It fits me so well. It was not what I had in mind, but it's
perfect.
