Would you wear a black Lacey dress to a wedding ?

[LardLizard]

Just out of interest ?

Yes I would

Pic?

got a picture ? is it revealing or see through ?

Do you have a picture of the dress? People are generally not as uptight about wearing black to weddings these days and usually advise people to try and brighten the look with their makeup and accessories

An arty/alternative person's wedding, yes. A conventional wedding, no. You know the happy couple best.

Well

Short, tight, low cut and lacey?

Longer, looser?
Very traditional wedding / couple?
More modern or alt. couple?
Formal sit down black tie wedding?
Just evening do?
Casual in a field barn wedding?

It just doeends doesn't it?

Without seeing the dress or knowing the type of wedding it is it’s impossible to say...

I never knew you weren't supposed to wear black to a wedding until i was on Mumsnet and i don't imagine any of my friends would care so yes, i would.

No

Ive seen lots of black outfits at weddings I don't think no black is an actual rule. I wore a black shift dress to the last wedding i went to wasn't the odd one out either stick a coloyred jacket with it and it's fine.

The last wedding I went to, the Bride wore a black lacy dress!

Now if the Op was going to wedding it would be awkward

I wouldn't, but you're not me and you probably can, especially if you're a few decades younger than I am. Also I think the 'rule' about not wearing black to a wedding is on the way out, as long as you're not the mother of either of the people getting married.

Depends on the dress. Left dress no, right dress yes!

Oh that left hand dress

depends on the dress, but if appropriate, yes.

That is not a dress 🤣

I’ve worn black to weddings with bright accessories and shoes.

Black - wouldn't have an issue. All my clothes are black

Lacy - that all depends on the style of the dress!

Yes I would and have!

I wore a floor length Lipsy dress, nude coloured just above the knee lining, covered with black lace to the floor, really lovely!

I wouldn't wear solid black but 2 guests have asked permission to wear black lacy dresses to my wedding next summer and I have zero problem with it. Far more important for guests to be happy and not be pressured into buying something they'll never wear again just to fit in with the traditional wedding guest colour scheme. Probably worth mentioning that it's an alternative-ish wedding and me and DF are more on the alternative side day to day.

I wouldn’t personally but lots of people do.

I would, yes. It’s ‘my colour’.
