Bethenny Frankel is back at Chanel.
After previously being denied entry to the brand’s “elitist” and “exclusionary” Chicago store, the former “Real Housewife” wore head-to-toe designer duds for her second attempt inside.
The ex-Bravolebrity, 53, told her Instagram followers Thursday that she was “dressed much differently” for her “Chanel field trip.”

Frankel looked perfectly ladylike in a pearl-buttoned dress and heels, completing her look with Chanel earrings and one of the house’s signature quilted flap bags.
“If they let me in because of how I look, Christmas is canceled,” the reality star said.
Sure enough, she chatted with three “lovely” gentleman outside the store before being allowed entry — only for Frankel to walk in and walk right back out.
“No problem today,” she mused during her triumphant departure.
The previous day, Frankel was told she needed to make an appointment to shop, which she took issue with despite acknowledging that “security is critical” because “crime is at an all time high.”
The former “Bethenny” host was fresh from the airport at the time, sporting a white tee and holding “a bag of Garrett’s popcorn [and] a basic bitch purse.”
“I didn’t realize we weren’t allowed to walk into stores anymore,” she said in the Wednesday video. “Gotta get a pap smear appointment and also to walk into Chanel. No big deal.
“In business, first impressions are lasting,” Frankel continued. “I would never want anyone to feel lesser than, particularly from a luxury brand making billions off of people buying into the hype.”
