To wear this dress to a wedding??

[dressesdressesdresses]

I've got a wedding next month, I've bought this dress but my sil says it's so much and I'll look a bit twatty?

If you saw me wearing this at a wedding what you think it was terrible? Or is it fine to wear for a wedding?

I wouldn't wear that in daylight.

www.asos.com/prd/9554198 weddingy. Ypu definitely have the figure for it and would show your shoulders off nicely.

The last couple you posted with the lace fishtail look too bridesmaid-y I’m afraid.
I appreciate that you want something off the shoulder but it is all a bit tight and tacky, sorry.
I agree with the others that the blue floral one you posted at the start is probably the best so far. Stick to something like that.

Rarfy’s link is nice. Spaghetti straps are a good way to show off your shoulders without going full naked up top.

The blue floral dress is lovely and perfect for a wedding while still being sexy and very dressy.

Yes agree the blue flowery dress is lovely and the glittery ballgown is OTT.

Whoever asked about Liverpool dress code... It's not obligatory but dressing up for non events like going to the pub is common (or was while I lived there) so you can imagine the extremes some will go to for a wedding. The point is that op's choices won't be out of place, so like pp's referred to Nigerian and ME weddings, a flash Liverpool wedding in St George's hall will have some 'out there's outfits so OP doesn't need to reign it in if that's what she likes

I think the outfits that you are looking at are more like evening wear, you're going for sexy rather than weddingy.

There was a boohoo one on page 4 which was beautiful and when I see our photos of the students (about your age) at weddings, the ones where they look most classy and elegant (but still shows off their figures) are like this.

Bodycon dresses tend to look a bit cheaper (IMHO) and the fishtail combined with off the shoulder style start to look more like cocktail dresses.

The pink off the shoulder one was sexy but could be made casual for the day with a jacket.

The blue one is fine for a wedding! Looks nice.

Light blue one, I meant

Maybe I'm used to Liverpool weddings but if it is St. George's in Liverpool the blue is perfect

Think it's a bit much for an afternoon wedding.
Don't think it's right for this occasion.
Lovely dress for the right event x

The problem with body on dresses is they don't adhere to the tits or bum rule - it's on or the other - never both

As you want to show off your shoulders, you should aim for a more floaty dress on the lower half, whwich does look classier.

The body con dresses are great for nighttime but not a daytime wedding.

It looks like a pageant dress

Rarfy's link is lovely

Liverpool has its own fashion rules, ignore any posters who aren't from Liverpool or familiar with its own way of doing things. Whatever you wear someone will be shorter, tighter, glitterier and more OTT than you so don't worry about that OP.

Still crying @ Susan Boyle!

Are they a bit like Leeds fashion rules? Ive not been to liverpool, but remember an evening out in Leeds, and us southerners felt shockingly underdressed. It was really something

It is an evening dress suitable for a black tie or formal evening event. If it is a 3 pm wedding it will still be full daylight and I honestly think you will feel very uncomfortable with people looking at you in that dress on an August afternoon. If it was knee length I suppose there's a possibility but it is just rather sequiny. Sorry but your SIL may be saving you here.

I'd say Newcastle is probably close ish. Not been out in Leeds but suspect it's a lot more toned down. Someone mentioned the Cheshire Housewives - think a more amplified version of them.

ParisNext if it's Liverpool, trust me, NOBODY will be looking at her in a funny way. Nobody.

I wore a dark blue sequined floor length wrap gown at the insistence of the bride to an autumn wedding.

It began at 2, and it was dark by 5, so it felt ok. I would say fairly that I was the person after the bride whose dress was most publicly admired - people like to admire pretty dresses and big hats at weddings. (Before anyone itches to bring me down a peg or two, I was at my absolute heaviest, and the compliments felt genuine, unforced, and they meant a lot). Would have felt an eejit wearing it at a summer do though.

I like this one

I quite like the pink Quiz one, but the one Slightlyjaded suggested is really pretty and unusual, very suited to a wedding and could look fab. Good luck x
