Is this dress suitable for a wedding?

I really like it, here I dont have a chest nearly as big as that so wont be so eye popping as in the pic. Have looked at the reviews and some of the people who have bought it have a smaller chest and it looks much nicer less trashy.

Is it the wedding of a man what done you wrong, and you wish to sweep in dramatically and femme fatale-y and show him (and his no-doubt-dowdy-by-comparison bride) what he's missing? If so, yes, it's perfect.

If not, no, it'll look like you're trying to draw focus from the bride. Wink

really? damn, cos I really liked it :( TBH i wasn't really thinking of how I'd look compared to the bride, just how I'd look iyswim :) It looks like the perfect dress to hide and flatter all my shitty bits and show off my good bits Grin

Sorry, I think it's a bit of a mess TBH.

There's lots of nice dresses out there which I am sure you would look much lovelier in.

Looks a bit Jessica Rabbit to me. Is it a theme wedding?

Very very nice.

However, there was a discussion on radio 4 about this today. You can't (apparently) wear anything too short, too tight, or white. And a fascinater should be 'given to the cat for a toy'.

Do you think I could get away with it on the school run? I don't get out much these days...

Wedding outfits are supposed to be smart though really. Cool/trendy and smart or sexy smart is fine.
This one is a bit too much.

It's a bit, erm, trashy. And at the first gust of wind you would show your minkie to the groom's great uncle and probably cause heart failure.

Haha eurochick I was going to mention a stiff breeze and possible consequences. Keep mams and minge away from weddings methinks!

It's a dog's dinner!

It's a horrible gaudy colour, there is acres of bunched up unflattering fabric everywhere, it's cut to the navel and it's split to the crotch! Why would you even consider it for a wedding?!

Apologies, but that is one God awful dress!

Not for a wedding, too attention grabbing...
