to wear a black maxi dress to a wedding?

[ditsydoll]

I'm bfing and poor ds has a reflux so everything I wear ends up covered in sick/milk.
I can't find anything that won't look awful if I end up covered & I'm able to feed on.than a floaty black maxi.
I was going to team it with chunky gold wedges and bag and a chunky necklace

I think that sounds great . I've worn black to a wedding, and there were guests in black at mine.

No, it's on a par with turning up wearing a bridal gown.

Also you will really see milk sick on black, you need a beigey/brown colour.

Totally fine IMO.. I only own black dresses and in your situation I think it is perfect. I would dress up the dress though with some colour... Nice pashmina and drop earrings.

I'd have thought that plain black would show up sick far more than a colourful, patterned outfit tbh. I don't have a problem with wearing black to a wedding (I did it once) but I think your logic is more of an excuse.

You will be fine in that - though it is perhaps not what is traditional on a female guest, I have been to many summer weddings where guests have gone with a maxi and no bride has ever had a hissy fit.

Don't wear a veil though

If you can find something else, then do.

No think of the photos, youll stick out like a sore thumb.A big black blob ( not that your blob shaped iykwim)

Could you not borrow anything.

Agree with your second point Buskers but your first is nonsense imho. Ditsy I think your outfit sounds lovely and I would be proud for you to attend any wedding of mine in it...but as Busker says, won't sick show up on it??

Personally as long as you're not wearing a dress that looks like a wedding dress, or a bridesmaids dress you'll be fine!

I noticed a couple of people in black at my wedding, one teamed it with red accessories and the other with pink. Both looked lovely.

Sounds lovely, definitely wear it. I've worn black to a wedding before, with nice accessories and a cream pashmina, perfectly reasonable. Why ate to planning to do with your hair and what shoes are you wearing? Hair loose and pretty sandals would look lovely and bohemian.

Black dresses are practically the uniform at most weddings I have been to.

Complete myth that you can't wear black to a wedding. I always go for midnight blue or something but have also worn black, the last wedding I went to nearly everyone was in black and the men all had dark suits on! Everyone looked really classy.

I had a city wedding, small, and most women wore black to that - very smart.

The gold shoes and so on will make you look glamorous. Have a lovely time.

I've just had to buy a dress for a wedding, I'm BFing too. Patterns disguise puke/dribble marks much better than a block colour, especially black. A black maxi dress isn't very weddingy. Have you looked for a colourful crossover dress?

Agree with PPs that plain black is about the worst for milk showing up.
