To wear black tights to a wedding next month?

[Greendalerocket]

It’s an end of October wedding. My brother is getting married. Can I get away with black tights? My dress is burgandy, my shoes are black and bag is black.

Is the dress short or long sleeved?

do you mean barely black? Or opaques?

Yes. Why wouldn't you?

Show is the dress

Yes its absolutely fine

Yes! I wore black fishnets with a blue satin floaty type dress for my brothers wedding this week. Looked great!

Yes, this is 100% fine for a winter wedding.

This is the dress.

Yes, I was thinking black opaque tights.

I think it’ll be absolutely fine. Honestly I’ve never seen the big fuss about what colours guests wear!

So long as you aren't the bride it will be fine :)

Difficult to say as sometimes they can look a bit flat and "worky" I feel.

Are clear tights an option? I think they will showcase the dress better. Dress is gorgeous OP, good choice

Yes it’s fine, dress is gorgeous too. Perfect.

Of course you can. How is this even a concern?

That dress is lovely, where is it from?

If course! You could get a funky pattern if you wanted to be fancier, like diamonds or zebra pattern or something (still in black)

Etiqette-wise I wouldn't worry. Aesthetic-wise I think sheer tights would look better with that lovely dress.

Yes it’s absolutely fine. Personally I wouldn’t go bare legged to a wedding or other formal event anyway unless I was wearing a maxi but I’m old fashioned.

It’s a lovely dress. I think winter weddings are slightly different you don’t have to wear lighter colours. Having said that the way it’s styled in the picture looks good with light colour tights?

Where’s the dress from? I wonder if there’s an occasion where I can wear something like that.

If you are not trying to hide scars of similar. Sheer would be much better, or perhaps a rust shade?

Will shoes and bag match?

I think winter weddings are slightly different you don’t have to wear lighter colours.
They aren't different because there is no requirement to wear lighter colours just because a wedding is in June.

The knots people tie themselves up in with these made-up rules about wedding attire are bonkers.

I love that dress, I've been looking for a burgundy dress with decent sleeves for ages. I'm another one wanting to know where it's from please.

Also I think it would look good with black tights too, I'd wear it with opaques and dark brown ankle boots...if you tell us where it's from

Love the dress OP where from?

Is wearing opaque tights breaking some wedding etiquette rule? No. If they make you comfortable, go for it.
Will they suit the dress? Also no. I'd say they make an outfit look less "dressy" and you'd be better off going natural sheer tights.

Why not? If it goes with the dress then I'd wear black tights any time.

Sorry everyone, the dress is from Shein.

I think I’ll go for black opaque tights then.
