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?

Liverpool is much more dressy than Leeds. It plays by its own fashion rules.

tempted to go people watching in liverpool now

Definitely OTT. It's a ball gown. Too attention grabbing for someone else's big day. Let the bride's dress be the most noticeable, not yours.

If you wore that to a West African wedding, you’d be considered underdressed! Personally, I think it’s fine.

even liverpool has toned it down a bit now on the frockage (hair and makeup remain extra)

its the full length-ness that's the prob, it's too old for you as well

It's done I've got this one needs taking up a it but otherwise it's perfect and doesn't clash with bridesmaids colours. Going with simple shoes, makes up and etc etc

That's a stunning dress. You'll look beautiful I'm sure. I hope you have a lovely day.

Good choice OP! Very nice indeed.

Notsurprisedatall · 29/07/2018 17:33

New one is lovely, the first one was very Susan Boyle as someone else said.

LoveProsecco · 29/07/2018 17:45

The dress you've bought is beautiful OP! Great choice with the navy over the pink. I think it looks very classy & expensive. Have a great time!

IWouldLikeToKnow · 29/07/2018 17:55

Great choice. Looks pretty elegant. Enjoy

whatthefdoidonow · 29/07/2018 18:01

It's nice but not very summery! Maybe in winter time it would look more acceptable. I agree its a bit too ott for a wedding. But if you like it fo for it!

Popc0rn · 29/07/2018 18:13

The one you've chosen is lovely, won't look ott in Liverpool! Have a lovely day :)

NameChangingParanoid · 29/07/2018 18:24

Good choice OP, hope you have fun. You’ll look amazing.

TangledSlinky · 29/07/2018 18:36

The one you've gone for was definitely my favourite of the bunch. Have a lovely time.

Slightlyjaded · 29/07/2018 20:04

Good choice OP. Have a brilliant day (and maybe post us a picture of you in the dress??)

Eleanorsummer · 29/07/2018 20:22

Ah, that dress looks lovely Smile

twinkledag · 29/07/2018 21:01

Ooh I love the blue fishtail lace dress! Will you come back and post a pic of you wearing it on the day?

LassWiADelicateAir · 29/07/2018 21:06
