Another 'is this appropriate to wear for a wedding?' thread

[Pigface1]

I love this dress and am thinking of wearing it to a wedding next month with a black hat. However I'm hesitating for two reasons - (a) it's full length (but I hate my calves so would like to cover them if possible) and (b) it's predominantly black - and the bits of it that aren't black are white!

What do you think?

Is this dress still on Asos? It's fab I want one!

I've looked but can't see it.

Sorry nick, I bought it from coast in the sale last year and screenshotted it from Asos to have a picture to use on here (but it was out of stock on asos). It looks like it's out of stock on Coast now but perhaps try searching 'Coast polka dot maxi dress' on google to see if any of the other department stores still have it??

Damn it, lol! Thanks pigface1

I really like this! Nothing wrong with this for a wedding. I'd maybe put a bit of colour in your accessories tho, pink fascinator and bag?

It's gorgeous. Go for it

Beautiful and wedding appropriate. Go for it!

Lovely, definitely wear it 😁

It's beautiful. Definitely acceptable for a wedding!

I agree about a bit of colour. Could you slide in two touches of emerald green or yellow maybe?

Gorgeous. Definitely a big hat to balance it out. Black would be more stylish but I agree you could go for a real pop of colour on the hat too.

Lovely.Go for it, definitely take your time to pick the perfect headpiece though.

Also, I doubt very much your calves are as bad as you think they are.

Lovely but no to black hat too - hmm, could you do a red hat/fascinator and a red sash/belt? Red shoes?

That would dilute the black thing and would be very Ascot chic.

It's lovely but I'd wear it with colourful accessories because it's a wedding and it'll brighten it up a bit.

I love it. Coloured nails & bag will look nice. Enjoy your day.
Accessorize has fascinators on sale ATM. I got a great one for £7.50 on sat 😀

I think it would look good with fuschia accessories

Yes wear it.

Gorgeous. And it's not full length, it's maxi.

If I had the face for it, I would wear hair in a very simple chignon. Colour in nails and bag
Have a great time.

I like it, if you're worried about length Lindybop do a similar dress which is knee length.

But Jesus no fascinator, they are tacky.

Agreed keira

I love it. Definitely suitable. I am also a "no black or white" at weddings but that combination is fine.

Loads of people wear maxi dresses. It will be absolutely fine. Why should you have to bear a part of your body you feel self conscious about just because of some weird convention no one actually cares about. People make these things so hard.

I think it's nice and if you feel confident and happy in it then wear it with pride OP

Lovely dress, entirely appropriate for a wedding, but a hat would look much better than an fascinator

Lovely outfit.
Maybe a light fascinator instead of the dark hat though.
