I think the pressure in Asian cultures to be petite is much bigger than in Western culture. Whenever I talk with Asian girls they always say the same.
She's beautiful and she deserves to feel special.
agreed - im a UK8-10 and im considered plus size in Malaysia

😳
Petite refers to height, common mistake. One can be 300 pounds and petite.
That said, in the Asian community there is a more idealised woman, a tiny one, as Asian men do not tend to be big, and like most men do they like to feel big next to their lady. That makes it that much harder for the ladies, though their body types and diets generally are on the lean side.
I love this couple, she has a great figure, loved her in the 2nd dress the most, however in the end she has to be comfortable and happy.
I love her fiancé!!!! He appreciates and loves her how she is and that’s what matters ❤️
He's absolutely right that she can take in the first dress. It isn't fitted to her and he wants her to feel as gorgeous as he sees her. And that's the sweetest thing! He loves her and wants her to feel special because she is
Bride has a beautiful, naturally curvy figure... she should be far from plus-sized anywhere. Great friends & supportive fiance. I wish them many happy years together!
She has a body WONDERFUL
Agreed 😊
I love the dress she had on when she came in.
I did some googling and a UK size 12 is a US size 8. That's far from plus sized.
What a fun appointment! Personally, I liked dress # 2 on her better, but she chose best for her. She is just "normal size" for most of the world, or even on the small side. Hope they had a wonderful wedding - she looked beautiful.
The first one was much nicer, the others were just - meh. Basic. It would have been easy to add an off the shoulder chiffon piece for her arms.
This show made me smile, lovely bride with great friends
It makes me so sad that she's been turned away from so many dress shops when she's literally just a very average size. She's gorgeous and deserves to feel so!
The 2nd dress was by far the best, she looked gorgeous in it, and it really showed off her curves.
She's so beautiful. Looks good in all the dresses. So tired of women being "body shamed" due to society "standards" ... She's lovely and her friends and fiance are wonderful. Best of luck to both of you
Agree with the groom with first dress, she can show her curvers ( she have a lovely shape) , she is not fat. I really enjoy this bride and party .
That was a delightful episode. Beautiful bride finds gorgeous gown and her caring entourage showing her the support and candour that she deserves. Wonderful.
Such a cute group and the bride looked great in all 3 dresses.
She is not plus size I don’t care what nationality
she is though.
I guess I need to stop watching the Asian SYTTD. I hated another episode which featured a mother calling her beautiful daughter fat.
A UK size 12 or 14 is plus size in every country. It would be a 16/18 in the US.
She is a weight that could be unhealthy depending on how much she exercises. But you don't have to judge her value as a human on that factor.
I don‘t she is plus size I think she is beautiful just the way that she is 😁🙂😌
She looked beautiful in all the dresses and I’m glad she chose one that made her happy.
SUCH a supportive group, I love it!!
This whole wedding party was adorable, and the bride beautiful! I think she could have gone with either 2 or 3.
About the plus size idea. She is saying that in the part of Asia that she is from, most of the shops cater to sizes much much smaller. So this makes her plus size compared to most of the other shoppers.
I went to high school with mostly Asians in my classes. I am not Asian, and I felt sooooo big compared to my classmates. When I moved to Vermont, I felt so small compared to everyone. So in the US and UK, she is not plus-sized, she's just a beautiful curvy woman.
Just doing a little bit of research, a UK size 12 is a US size 8
She's absolutely beautiful and healthy, not plus size at all. I as a fluffy manatee, compared to her, will now float back to my happy dark corner of the internet.
😀Wishig you a nice float, manatee. I feel like one, too! ☺ Cheers!
She is plus size in Asian culture and since that's where she dress shopping its pertinent! She Average for UK, US and Europe
))
¹+
Haha…I feel the same way I was like that’s my goal weight!
She is considered a PLUS SIZE??? UNREAL! 🤯😳😬
But she is NOT averaged size in Asia. You are projecting American culture onto her culture.
The reasons why shops turned her down is because they didn't have clothes her size. She needed bigger. How does that translate to American culture except as "plus size?"
Listen. It is just a description. No one said it diminished her value as a person. The description tells her what shops she can buy clothes in in HER country, not ours. That is all.
If you think she should stop feeling plus size, then she will feel WORSE. Why? She will go to regular shops and feel fat. She won't fit into any of the clothes there. Why not accept what she is - it is not terrible - and go to stores where the clothes fit her?
What a sweet girl, fiancé, and bridal party! I wish them all the best!🎉
She's a beautiful bride. I actually preferred the 2nd dress on her but the one she picked is beautiful as well and looked good on her.
Beautiful Bride with loving friends and fiance
She needs to come to America for the honeymoon and feel skinny
Danielle you have the prize for the best comment ever lol
If the bride is calling herself plus size what would I call myself honey you're not plus size you're full figured and you look beautiful in your skin love yourself and embrace it
Sadly, in asian countries, she's already considered plus size. 🤷🏻♀️
@@chgreenxx oh wow thanks for letting me know how it is in other countries here in my country of Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 we have all different sizes of women
I would have to call myself a “whale size”. The pressure on women is huge everywhere.
She is such a beautiful woman and I liked her in all the dresses. Hard choice between 2nd and 3rd.
uk size 12 = 36" bust. that shouldn't be considered heavy anywhere!!
she's adorable, and her guy is hilarious!! hoping they have a long, happy marriage.
I just wanted to cry when Mee was bringing herself down on her beautiful figure and as for the other shops...shame on them for not catering to any beautiful girl that not tiny like the Asian norm. Mee, you are a beautiful young woman with a gorgeous real figure, healthy figure and never let anyone tell you otherwise. Although fiance should not be there to see his beautiful bride in her wedding dress as it is unlucky, his attitude towards Mee as a person and her build has got to be commended. I wish you both a long and happy life together. Hugs from Norah, Scotland
I’m astonished at the difference adjusting the neckline of #3 made!
I’m glad I watched this episode; everyone was lovely.
She’s lovely. In spirit, in body and her groom is precious too. She has a beautiful smile.
I didn't like any of the dresses. I think they could have done better.
I find it mildly scary that a woman that small is considered "plus sized."
She said for an Asian girl she's considered plus sized because most Asian women are tiny.
I know right?!
Wow. If she's considered a "plus size" that would make me a manatee.
Asian beauty standard
😂😂😂😂
She's a size 12. She is not plus size.
She looked so pretty in all of the dresses.
I'm no expert, BUT i do wish "brides" would wear proper foundation wear to their appointments, also they, their family and fiends need to understand the dress will look SO different after it has been fitted properly !
I think she is lovely. Her fiance was so sweet and supportive. I'm not sure what country she lives in, but I think what they consider heavy there, we would consider only a small bit more than average. Remember, the camera adds weight, so she is probably a little smaller than you think. I adored her, and I hope she and the fiance had a fabulous wedding. ❤
She's a stunner, I was also team dress #2, but she looked really pretty in all of them
I would be proud to be the parents of all these bright and shiny beacons of light.
Just 3 choices? Seems like female consultant was too much in a hurry
nope, she was not....
3 shown on film...we never know what really goes on. Some brides have come on here and said it's a 9 hr shoot, and they try lots of dresses, or are shown lots, and then the show edits it into these "show size bits"
Everything about this made me happy 😊
She looked amazing in all 3 dresses. I do wish there was a dress with the shape of dress 2 (her butt looked amazing) and the top/neckline of dress 3 (with the lace panel taken out) But she had no wrong answer with any of those dresses.
They all look amazing on her but the second one had her figure looking absolutely stunning!!
So lovely to see a future bride turn up to an appointment beautifully dressed.
All her friends and her are totally adorable 🥰
What a cute bridal party! I can't believe she thought and was told she's plus size, I'm glad everyone was supportive, she has wonderful curves!
Jo and Al wouldn’t have her size too small
Def a no for 1. But I'm all for 2. As someone who has almost the same size as her, I think I'm a bit bigger, but I wish I could wear something like #2. This bridal party is so refreshing tho. I love it!
What a beautiful girl. I'm so surprised she had a problem finding a dress.
She’s beautiful. She will be a beautiful bride.
Adorable episode so much love and support and the consultants did not pressure her at all. She looks like a beautiful princess 👌💕
love the bride and the entourage
None of these got her neckline right. Yes they could have done better
Yeah unfortunately sizes 12 and up are considered plus size. I understand the frustration because I’m the same. However, I think her shape is cute.
Girl u are gorgeous YOU ARE NOT OVERWEIGHT AT ALL!! Give yourself a break 😊 congrats...BEAUTIFUL choice
Love ur beautiful dress she really looked so pretty in it.
Wow...what a great group of friends! And, her fiance is a dream come true.
The dress is gorgeous on her. 🥰
I liked her in the second one. But she looked good in all of them. It ultimately is about her comfort.
I love the second dress on her. Beautiful bride no matter the dress.
Omg she is perfect and healthy! Nowhere near plus size
The second one is definitely the best look on her ❤
She is lovely! I love all of her dress choices. But the one she picked was so beautiful on her
Is there a three dress limit? Give her another dress or two to try on in different fabrics and then let her choose which one she wants. I think they were all too lacy and old looking. Perhaps a plainer, less lacy design would have given her the feeling she was looking for.
She has an amazing figure.
She’s beautiful ❤
Her fiance is so sweet to love her curves.
I guess many women watching this episode wished to be "plus size" like her...
I so relate to this, I was so fat shamed in an Asian - Chinese red dress, said it was very hard to fit my size, at that time I was a 10, which is so over weight in Asian society term. Sad isn’t it, mom and family always called me fat even when I was a size 6… oh well.
How is that plus size? She looks absolutely healthy
Asian beauty standards:(
she needs to come to America if she is so worried about size....
So nice to see an entourage that give nasty comments about the bride or the dresses. I personally liked dress #2 on her better, but she obviously was more comfortable in #3
She is so beautiful and cute ..awww...I like her smile, laugh , body .....🥰❤💜
I wish I could tell her she looks gorgeous. She isn't fat she is curvy screw whoever has been making her feel fat
What a fun supportive group
It drives me crazy that they call size 12-14 plus size. I once wore a 20 after I quit smoking years ago. Then I got down to a 14. I was thrilled at my size. But still a plus size according to “them”. Now I’m a 10 but sometimes wear a 12 depending on the item of clothing and who makes it. Sizes In clothes are a joke. When I was growing up there was no size 0. If you feel beautiful then that’s all that matters. Why was her fiancé there to see the dress? Maybe they decided not to have a surprise. Hope they are happy forever. ❤
I like the first one best.
The bride looks great but my favorite on her is the first dress makes her look so youtful. Best wishes on your wedding and life together
If you’re fiancé thinks you’re beautiful you should to. You are not a + size. You have a gorgeous figure. Your very beautiful to . 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰be in love with you and others will be to . Your fiancé loves you for who you are so you should to. People are to critical of each other and we all need to be respectful of each others feelings. Congratulations to you both and have a wonderful future. 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
I'm about her size, if not a bit larger and while my mom might make comments about my weight, I don't know a single person who would look at me and call me plus sized
The bride is very beautiful! Embrace and love yourself! You are perfect!
What a neat preparation to the SYTTD 👍
Italy was the same. Every store was size 4-8. Size 10 was rare. 12 and above was non-existent. Many Italians and Asians tend to be shorter and more petite which is why their sizing runs small. Height and skeletal structure make a HUGE difference to size and weight. Two people can have the same BMI & body measurement ratios but be completely different sizes based on their build. I think this is why US/UK sizing tends to be larger. Westerners tend to be taller, broader and just bigger-boned in general than some other populations. This is true of both the men and the women. My friend is a size 10 but she is 6ft tall and weighs only 60kgs so she is literally skin and bones. My other friend is the exact same size as this borderline anorexic friend (size 10) but this girl is very short and weighs 80kgs so she is actually quite overweight. I weigh less than her but I am a size 14 because I am over a foot taller. I'm two sizes bigger than her but I weigh less and my measurements are smaller. Don't even get me started on what muscle mass does to the scales vs dress size! Bottom line.... dress size & scales mean absolutely nothing unless you have context. Unfortunately, this fact is rarely discussed. Which is why so many young men and women place value on these arbitrary sizes/weights that are deemed "ideal" yet they are actually making assumptions based on a numbers that they often don't even understand.
The fit and flare silhouette suits her so much better than A Line
She was beautiful in every dress she tried on!
I loved this video. So sweet!
As an American its crazy to me that she would be considered plus size... shes like a size 8 if that
She has like the cutest body type ever and I rlly like her arms omg
She's beautiful!
I don't understand. Why would a bridal salon "turn her down"? Someone please explain, Thanks.
OMG this is the cutest couple!!!!!
This clip should have captions.
she looks stunning in fitted dresses
She’s perfect.
This woman is slim. What is wrong with people?
The dress she's wearing in the beginning is so pretty
#3 looked even better!
Beautiful bride!
Imagine bridal shops "turning away" a potential client! Heresy! Plus, this bride is UK size 12 which is a US 8, and based on her apparent height she would be an 8P. She is lovely and being an engineer, she's probably very smart too.
Only plus is cutness plus and sweetness plus.♥️
She is considered plus sized?? Crazy
Excellent Choice...
Plus size where? She is so cute naturally curvy...hope she realises just how pretty she is...
Dress #2 looked great on her!
Plus size in the kids department maybe! Not plus size!!!
