🤩 Mmahotsos is swiftly becoming a
⭐ Super Star ⭐ under your wise 🦉 counsel & care.
She's a true beauty inside & out〰️clearly filled with artistic aptitude, ambition, competence & lovely sensitivity. Showing us her savvy skills in design & interpretation, textile sourcing, and quality construction. Brava! 👏
🥰Adore her dramatic diva dress creations for 🏵️Stephanie🏵️. The silver gown is quite striking.😉Although the "peacock feather" fabric & sweeping overskirt in the second dress is giving me delicious Wicked Stepmother a la Cate Blanchett vibes 🎞️Cinderella 2015. It's a very versatile outfit.
🌟 It does our heart good to see our vibrant & enchanting ⚜️Chateau Diaries hostess draped in such a radiant & resplendent manner💛. Bless you!

Grazie di 💓 cuore.
The young lady who has the scholarship was so talented and really pretty!
Hello 👋 dear , how are you doing?
How is it that for people I have never met ,I have such love for and get so much joy from watching all the love and kindness shown to one another. You are all delightful ❣️
I know what you mean I feel exactly the same x
I think it’s the same thing with your favourite TV-characters 🧐 except they are written and imaginary, Lalanders are real 🧐
So incredibly true!! I laughed and cried in this blog. Such beautiful people ❤️
So very well said. I feel the same way!!
My Hubby and I were just saying the same. We love all the LaLanders and pray for them like family! I’m hoping for an awesome 2022 for all. 🙏🏻❤️
The pleasure has been in watching your projects, friends, family, romances in bloom, and celebrations. Thank you for including your viewers.
The dress for South Africa is breathtaking. And with the hat is just stunning.
How fortunate are you to be outfitted by an artist. An artist who creates these gorgeous, gorgeous pieces. Magnificent.
Amaury should be narrating audiobooks, what a great voice!
I think you are on to something, I would love to listen to him narrate a documentary.
I’ve always thought that Philip would be good at it too! His command of languages is amazing.
Or the bedtime stories on the Calm app
He should be leading meditations. 😉💕
Amaury telling me bed time stories.. Ohh la la my cougar friends as well.
I'm crying over his generosity! The dressers are seriously gorgeous. You look beautiful in them all and Philip looks so handsome in his costume!
That beige dress with the bow & blowing in the wind is STUNNING
Absolutely a work of ART!!!
@@nikishazechiel6848 It was the prettiest dress on Stephanie in my opinion. When I saw it on the hanger - Meh - but on - was truly yes - a work of art !!!!
Hi Stephanie
Thank you for coming to visit us at Villioti, we had a fantastic day. Congratulations on 50 million views, wow that’s just amazing. You looked stunning in Mmahotsos dresses, that she made for you, we are all so proud of her.
Lots of love ❤️ from all of us at Villioti Fashion Institute ❤️🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼Spero Villioti
You are a kind, generous, and divine human, Spero! Loved seeing you! Can’t wait to see you in the vlog when you visit LaLande someday! Sending love and blessings your way!
@@stephaniewilliams9469 Hello 👋 Stephanie Williams
Thank you for your lovely comments, it truly means so much to me. I am your first subscriber 😂😂😂sending you lots of love from sunny South Africa ☀️🇿🇦🌸🌸❤️🤓Spero Villioti
Your dresses are spectacular! They do belong in a castle setting. I think it's wonderful that you foster such creative talents at your school.
I can’t believe that you’re thanking me when I don’t have enough words to thank you for your kindness and generosity. We had the most fabulous time - it was like stepping into a dream ❤️
Spero, you are a Master! You inspire creative expression! Your students are blessed to have you as their mentor. I pray for you and your students and employees happiness, creativity, and prosperity.
One always receives more than one gives.
This girl is 🔥🔥🔥! Her designs are both cool, unique, and wearable!! She's gonna do so much more and I can't waitttt
Yes! I agreed!!
Great affirmation that you made the right choice for the scholarship! Talent plus! She's a great representative for the scholarship AND South Africa! Beautiful work!
I was a bit sad to see Scotsman left all by himself in the airport. But I was cheered up by the enormous creativity and generosity of Spero Villioti. What a talent! And so modest and kind. He's the best rollmodel and I'm going to recommend him wherever I can. Thank you for sharing, Spiro. Kind regards from The Netherlands.
You should always come sweeping down the stairs in those magnificent dresses! Also, I want to say, I have never seen so many humble, genuine, caring people as you have around you. I am in awe. Love the vlog and am binge watching them. Aside from your childlike enthusiasm, which is so heartwarming, Philip's tender heart for animals, Natie's sweetness, Aubry's calm soothing voice, you are all so endearing. So many others as well, are all special.
Well said ! 🌟💘
What an incredible talented young designer, she will definitely go far in her career. Such lovely ideas and so creative..I’m blown away. And the amazing work and talent put into all these dresses by these lovely people what talent...Stephanie...they should make your wedding dress!
Hello 👋 Helen, how are you doing?
Paul McCartney said, "the love you take is equal to the love you make." For Stephanie it's exponentially more! Congratulations!! 🎉🍾😍
Congratulations and those dresses are stunning, you wear them perfectly, also what beautiful workmanship from all the staff, so talented 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Villioti designs are amazing and so are the student's designs ❤️❤️❤️
Amory’s “hello sweetheart” at the airport was so heartfelt and beautiful 💖🤗
Amory is such a sweetheart!! He's rather quiet but boy is he handsome!! So is Phillip!!
I think I smiled like a Cheshire cat through the majority of this. Beautiful gowns! What talent! Did I hear correctly Nati will be 40? Surely not! She looks as if she is 30. 😘❤️
Oh WOW!!!! The gold dress is just exquisite. You look magnificent! You are made for high fashion, Stephanie.❤️
That’s exactly what I thought!
@@northrupmj 😀
Phillip's breath caught when he saw Stephanie in that black and nude lace gown. (We all did, I think). Obviously, she was stunning in it but for a man to truly appreciate, articulate and genuinely enjoy watching his lady do justice to such beautiful work of art is a step above man-kind. Every girl needs a Phillip. To be admired by a lovely man and feel like he truly sees her 💛
He’s amazing and they are a perfect couple x
After hearing Spero in your Patreon vlog speaking about the importance of helping others, I already realised what a very special & charitable person he is but seeing this vlog was amazing. His generosity is incredible but then again I believe he recognised kindred spirits in you all.
Hello 👋 dear , how are you doing?
I am not often speechless but the gowns!!! Just beautiful. And the stories to go along with them. Priceless. Also Philip and that amazing outfit =perfect!!
Is it utterly ridiculous that I felt a little wave of home-sweet-home when you were driving up to the chateau? I felt joy to be back, when I've never been there at all! So glad you're back safely.
The dresses -- amazing! The Philip is perhaps my favorite, but that silk one with the spaghetti straps that was kind of green/gold ... was stunning. And the GWTW dress that was mostly sculpture -- that looks stunning on you. What fun!
Me too.
Hello 👋 dear , how are you doing?
Absolutely wow!! I got super emotional with the golden dress, so beautiful and such an emotional story behind it. I love the idea of bringing life into the dresses with giving them to someone with so much joy, shine and life in them, as Stephanie has. 💚💚💚 this was such an emotional episode, also just with saying goodbye with Mamie.. oh my..
How talented your young lady is. She is going to have a great career in fashion.
Stephanie, this was such good fun! Percy’s quip “there’s a problem because your mother wanted that dress” was priceless! I was bowled over by the designers. How talented! And doing such good for the community! Fabulous 🧵🪡👗
The dresses were so divine. Irene's dress her story had me in tears...
Every dress , gown , are absolutely works of art . They all look stunning on you .
Spero Villioti is so incredibly generous and talented and those dresses are FABULOUS!
Amaury and Nati, you both add light and love in Lalande. So sweet to see you holding hands every time 💋💞💕
I forgot...Dan is such a responsible man, taking care of the chateau and even fixing what wasn't expected. A Nice, "smug," as Stephanie characterizes Dan's antics. 😊
Wow how generous and sweet is the gentleman that made those dresses! The dresses are beautiful!
All of the dresses are so beautiful but, omg......stephanie, that black lace dress is absolutely stunning!!
Dan has put in sooo much personal time into this! He rocks! Montana, USA
Totally agree. He is a very hard worker!
This may be my favorite ever!! The return, the scholar, the dresses, ScotMan, the work done on the Chateau! Stephanie you are a wonder and that is why you have such an amazing team elevating each other constantly!!
All the dresses are spectacular, especially the beaded, tiered, evening dress. The way it moves. Wait, I didn't even see the head piece. WOW! The "Completely Blown Away" gown was my personal favorite if I had a choice of one to wear. I am so happy these creations have a broader international audience. Spero's iFashion page states, " Spero believes that his work must be recognised through the appreciation of the women who wear his creations." Like musical instruments that suffer when not played, these gowns only come to life when they are worn. Stephanie, you could become an inspiration for future gowns.

Leaving your sweet mother must have been so hard. What a generous, talented designer ! Blown away! Such beauty ! The fabrics! Philip you looked so regal in your outfit, perfect for you! And Stephanie you looked exquisite in every dress! Goodbye Gerald ❤️ . It was so nice to see everyone back at the beautiful Chateau Le Lande. I love seeing all the progress!
Stephanie, it is wonderful what you and your viewers have done for such a talented young lady. Cheers to helping many more organizations. By the way, the dresses are fan tastic. You are a very beautiful model.Also, I must be an ol softie I was in tears watching you leave your mom.
Hello 👋 Lilian, how are you doing?
Such generosity! It is almost like they designed all those gowns just for you. Jerry looked so emotional as you said goodbye.
Omg that designer was so amazing and talented 😭🤩 I loved the Irene and the black lace Phillip dress 🤩 that generosity is rare! I loved Gerald’s eBay joke 😅
These are all Venice dresses, especially that windblown ecru one. A matching mask? That would be incredible!
I Love the dear scholarship recipient. She is precious ❤️
Oh Stephanie, how beautiful you looked in each and every dress!! I love the stories of how they were all made! This whole vlog had me in the feels!! The young designer, the dresses, and saying goodbye to Mummy...😭😭😭
The pantry looks fantastic!! I've been watching all of Dan's vlogs whilst you were away. He did such a good job and the girls too!! Glad you are ALL home safe and sound!
Hello 👋 Teresa Maria, how are you doing?
How beautiful is Umcotzo!!! Like a little princess! And I love both dresses SO much. Very flattering to the figure. ( sorry if your name isn't right. I couldn't hear it clearly or exactly) hopefully we will see more of you and your progress 😊 ❤
It’s Mmakhotso 😊
@@TheChateauDiaries Thank you 😊
@@TheChateauDiaries Darling Stephanie, please consider
✍️penciling in your calendar 🗓️ a
📸 future fashion film 💥 modeling all these sensational gowns in & around the majestic 🏰Chateau & 🌱grounds🌲.
🤔Think a project of this nature would be a tremendous tribute to the Villiotti Institute. It would also allow us all to better see these spectacular gowns as they truly deserve in a stunning backdrop. Super marketing for both brands. 🎲🎲 Bet it would garner lots of interest & views too.
🥰Of course, Michael Potts + Curtis have proven quite adept in their absolutely glamourous & romantic fashion portrayals.
Our intrepid filmmaker, Dan, could do a 💫dazzling💫 job too. He's proving quite the ⭐Break Out Star⭐ with his moody, mercurial, moving drone shots of the surrounding area. He 💯% knows how to capture changing weather & countryside to tell powerful visual stories. 🤫Don't tell him, but he has fine artistic sensibilities. Inspired & in partnership w/you, he could artfully create an attractive haute couture fantasy film that would make you all proud.
😉You could hire the beautiful Annalise to do hair & make-up for different looks. Maybe get Nati or others to participate as a model too.
😁Something to think💬 on.

💌ps ✊Yes on Revenge vid!
Your visit with the young recipient was so wonderful. Her dress for you was amazing. So heart warming that she is really using the gift she received. The dresses made by the house of Villiot leaves a person speechless. His generosity is unparalleled. Really, what doesn't look good on you Stephanie. Glad you're home safe and so good to see all the familiar faces. We know your there Phillip even though your face is hidden by camera duty. Thank you for sharing. 50 millionth viewer.
What AMAZING artists at Villioti ~ Fantabulous , exquisite work and beyond generous ! . Who wouldn't want to buy a creation from them ?
Everything! Just perfect! The dress designer is a sweetheart and so generous! His heart is definitely in the right place! And thank you for showing the progress on the paneling. It will be spectacular! Glad the gang’s all home.☺️
When Mmakhotso graduates I hope you do a film for her to show off all of her talents and get her a dream job.😁❤🌺🌹
Wow!! Those dresses are all stunning!! What a generous gift! From all the designers!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍❤️ Lovely seeing you all again 🥰
Stephanie, you are living the dream of so many women. I am happy you get to enjoy moments like this, dresses like these and then go home to a Chateau to live with such wonderful people. You must have done something really good in your previous lives!!!!
I absolutely love fashion and I am very impressed with the creativity and quality of those stunning gowns.It’s a beautiful art that I wish I had persuaded long time ago.Great people with amazing creativity and style, fantastic.
Thank you Stephanie for doing what you do and for being yourself.
Your Mom sitting on that suitcase was just so adorable. Such a sweet memory. Really enjoyed watching Spero Villioti. A very kind and generous man who so delighted in knowing Stephanie could wear these couture gowns. It was a pleasure to watch his kind gifting. Just amazing of him. Great respect for his creations.
What an absolute joy this episode was! Congratulations on 50,000,000 views - an extraordinary achievement. Onwards and upwards! xxx
I cried. How lovely that he gave you those beautiful dresses. Watching you tell your mom goodbye was so hard. Thanks for taking us with you.
Holy GUACAMOLE, Phillip in the costume...WOW!!!
Every dress you modeled looked stunning! You looked beautiful in them all! What a generous man! He wanted to give you all of them! Gorgeous designs! What a dream!
Isabella looked so cute sitting on your suitcase! Good to see you all back at Lalande! 🥂🎉
Congrats on hitting 50 million views!! Thanks for letting us be a part of your extravaganza of fun! I've enjoyed every minute of viewing 😉

Bless your heart Stephanie, the way you cuddled your mum at the airport, you touched her little face....Such a wonderful love you both have. God bless you x.
Stephanie. To quote Martin Luther king, the arc of the universe points toward justice. Don’t be surprised that these beautiful things come to you. They are finding their natural born home in the one whose heart is the most pure. May justice come to those who made them. And to those who wear them. God bless. ❤️
I’m crying saying goodbye to mummy, Percy and Gerald and so happy for you and the dresses from Sparrow. So special. I love the names of the dresses and honoring Elsie. You are all so special.
Wow! The gowns are all gorgeous and very flattering on you Stephanie. They show off your tiny waist and shape to a tee. I swear Philip was meant to live in a different time. He just looks right in that sort of an outfit. I felt like crying right along with you when you had to leave mummy and Percy. I truly hope that they will be able to make the trip to La Lande sooner rather than later. It was great to see you all back at home again and catching up on all of the work that continued even in your absence. Dan's been doing great work. I'm sure his "plumber's crack", as we call it, is helping him do such a good job.
How beautiful his creations are, even more beautiful his heart…..
Those dresses for when you have your amphitheater ready and give opera concerts at Laland with the students and all the rest. It would be awesome!!! So elegant
Congratulations on 50million!! 🍸🎉🍸🎉🍸🎉
Those dresses/gowns were marvelously beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍
Black lace dress is amazing
Mmkhatso, if you are reading this - you are sooo talented! You are going places!
What stunning dresses & outfits & Stephanie looks gorgeous in them, Phillip too in his ❤ Such gorgeous skill & creativity!
Those dresses were absolutely amazing, all of them!
Great to see everyone back together again and that Isabelle and Percy will be coming to LaLande soon.
I love the amount of generosity and gratitude in this video. Congrats all around.
What APSOLUTLY beautiful dress; and they looked FABULOUS on you Stephenie!
Can't wait to see Mummy and Percy back at la land.
LOVE you guy's! ❤
I wish I could give this video more than one like. 💓🤩Loved EVERYTHING from the incredible outfits at Villioti (Wow - the Philip and the Irene dresses (!), but honestly Stephanie looks great in everything), to the journey getting back to Lalande, Dan and the others awesome transformation on the pantry and seeing the gang together again. 😉😅 This spring/summer is going to be great!
Congratulations on 50 million views! It's so well deserved! 👏👏👏
50 Million! You are amazing! So much fun and excitement especially with Mummy and Percy. The dresses I hope we see again. They are just stunning with you in them. Thanks so much for sharing your days with us! Love as usual from MA😍🐳
Stephanie you looked absolutely stunning modelling those beautiful dresses. Congratulations on your 50 million channel views.
Monsieur Villioti you are a gorgeous generous wonderful soul… thank you for sharing sharing your creativity with all of us 💓💓💓💃🏽💃🏼🕺🏼
Congratulations on 50 Million views! Mmkhatso is so talented and so deserving! I think you know how much we all appreciate what you do! Thank you!
The flock from all directions returned to turrets steep.
The bags below their eyes might prove a lack of sleep.
Inspite of drastic resting next to the ocean‘s shore and ample fashion sampling, back home is waiting more. The Chateau somewhat slowly its shutters opens wide.
The Chatelaine ecstatic and getting rather tied.
When 50 million viewers decide to click and see.
It‘s time for lots of bubbly and not just cups of tea.
Congratulations !! 🥇
Chateau Entertainment Jarvis‘ style remains unsurpassed ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love this! ❤️
@@TheChateauDiaries Thank you, Stephanie. 😘 One day we might even have an entire volume of funny poems to look back upon and laugh about. 🤓
I'm sorry you lost your dear friend Irene. You couldn't have gifted her gown and your beautiful creations to a better person than Stephanie. She will love them, honor them, and wear them with complete elegance. So very touching.
Thank you Stephanie for satisfying me inner” little girl dress up” urge!!!!!👗👠👒
I was crying when you were leaving South Africa too. What a wrench leaving Isabelle and Percy behind then parting with Gerry too. Beautiful dresses and they’re so generous with them! I particularly loved the gold. You looked magical in it.
WOW! Mmkahtso and her fashion designs are fantastic! A trip to Paris fashion week with Stephanie would be ideal.
What a kind kind kind gentleman 💕. I’m speechless about his pure generosity 💕💕!
You lucky lucky people, to be given such exquisite costumes such an amazing designer. You both looked stunning! Mind you, given how beautiful you both are, it's not much of a surprise is it 😍
The dress’s that he gave you were truly beautiful. The story about Irene was so sad. Oh my goodness Stephanie, when you were at the airport getting ready to leave and was hugging your mother I started crying. It was so emotional for me because I no longer have my mother with me. She passed away many years ago. Thank you for sharing your time in Africa.
Love everything about this. Stephanie in the role of every woman trying on the beautiful dresses! Great to see everyone at the Chateau and looking forward to the Sunday vlogs.
Was so touched by Speros big heart a few too many tears were shed by his love of his friend who passed away & the passion & love of his craft! Then more tears were shed when leaving Mommy & Percy!
Definitely happy your all back together congratulations to you all on your 50 million views another big milestone!
Stephanie you are so loved & the joy you bring everyone is unstoppable! To another 50 million views❤️🇨🇦
Same!!! 🥲
These videos always make me smile...except when it was time for you all to leave Mummy... I pray you all can see each other again very soon. And the dresses .... all of them are so stunning and you are the perfect model, Stephanie!
Wow Mmkhatso has truly blossomed in every way don't you think
Those South African designer dresses are better than anything I "switch off" when not watching the red carpet parades.
Congratulations on 50 million views ❤️
O, the dresses! And the
perfect costume for Phillip.
Just thrilling.
The fantastic imaginative creations of the new designer and exstreme confection of the seasoned , experienced couture..just utterly delighting!
Nati and Amoury you look so much in love 🥰🥰 it’s joyous…. I’m so happy for you 🥂🍾💓💓 Happy Valentines Day to all at Lalande xx and my fellow subscribers 💓🥰💓
Such tenderness,Stephanie,when you caressed your dear Mum, so much Love in your family Hugh ❤️
What a wonderful vlog. The dresses took my breath away.
I watched all pantry makeover Dan is a marvel
Omg those dresses 😛😛🥰😍🤩. It was so nice to see Gerald and mommy and of course Percy
Congratulations on reaching this more than memorable milestone!!!! Well earned, I'd say, since you, Stephanie and the entire Lalande family give us all so very much in return!! Thank you!!!!
Beautiful dresses, the Irene dress was so beautiful you are one lucky lady. I've never seen so many gorgeous dresses in my life 😍 Glad to see you all arrive home safe
Hello 👋 Christina, how are you doing?
Well done Steph here... Three characters interacting from the start... multiple characters interacting are a recipe for success... Michael on your channel take note. I believe that everyone should live happy, but if they want to exploit YT, its a must to have 3 characters or more!
Oh my goodness, Spero's generosity and genuine joy at sharing his dresses with Stephanie is wonderful to see. He is an amazing designer. The "African" dress, with the colorful beading is stunning, and Irene's dress with the gold metallic lace cape made me gasp. I agree the structural dress was gorgeous on Stephanie. It looked much nicer on her than on the hanger. The color was wrong for Stephanie, but then I don't know what color would work so that she is still wearing the dress, it isn't wearing her. All these dresses were absolute works of art. I'm not even into fashion and I loved that sequence/story line. What a generous man and truly great designer. I live in the north woods of Minnesota, so would never need couture, but if I ever did, I would absolutely bypass Europe and go directly to South Africa and Spero!
