Precious Davis, an award-winning diversity expert, social justice facilitator and performance artist who currently serves as the assistant director of diversity recruitment initiatives for Columbia College in Chicago — the first woman of color to hold the position — arrives at Bridals by Lori with a challenge for Robin, Lori and Monte.
In the episode, the classically beautiful Precious seeks the perfect gown for her 1,000-guest, royalty-themed wedding at the University of Chicago’s Rockefeller Chapel.
With her “chosen family” members Kenneth and Chadwick in tow, Precious hopes to find an ornate mermaid silhouette with a sweetheart neckline and a “touch of costume.” But her pals worry that her taste is too Michelle-Obama proper and not enough sparkle and fun for a woman of her youthful age.
With her favorite bridal designer, Lazaro, on hand to assist and an unlimited budget to work with, will Precious find a dress that makes her feel like a queen?
