Is this dress too bridal?

To wear as a guest at a wedding?

Link doesnt work for me. Can you add a pic?

EmbarassedQuestion · 16/10/2016 11:52

Absolutely.

EmbarassedQuestion · 16/10/2016 11:52

Especially considering its from their wedding range

APlaceOnTheCouch · 16/10/2016 11:53

I think it depends what you wear with it. Veil and tiara then too bridal. A contrast colour of shoes or jacket or bag then I think it would be fine. It does say it's grey even though it looks white.

I think it is a stunning dress. We go to a lot of weddings and I don't think that is too bridal at all.

I would be careful with accessories to be on the safe side.

foodiefil · 16/10/2016 11:57

You'd need dark accessories and even then you won't always have your hat on and your bag in your hand and will just be wafting around in a nearly bridal dress. Do they do it in another colour?

I think if you;re asking you;ll be conscious of it and should go for something else.

MarchEliza2 · 16/10/2016 12:08

I would definitely assume you were in the bridal party in that

Endoftheroad16 · 16/10/2016 12:09

I think it's a silvery grey. It doesn't come in any other colours unfortunately.

I'm worried it looks like a dress someone would wear for a registry office wedding. The Asis wedding range is for guests... they have a separate bridal range, but it doesn't help that they've styled it like a bridesmaid dress!

Ok so you've all confirmed what I thought.

It's so hard to find a nice dress.

It's a grey knee length pretty dress, I don't see it as bridal at all. Unless the wedding is a registry office and bride isn't wearing white then I would go for it.

Nanasueathome · 16/10/2016 14:23

The fact that the model is holding a posy implies it is an actual bridal dress
I would not even think about it
Find something else

Endoftheroad16 · 16/10/2016 14:48

I think it's supposed to be more of a bridesmaids dress than a wedding dress.
However, too many people have confirmed my worry so I think I will look for something else.

Any suggestions for pretty dresses that would suit a winter wedding?

Thanks but the first one is too similar to the brides wedding dress - except colour obviously!
Ideally don't want a black dress nor anything too clingy as I'm still carrying an extra stone of baby weight and I can't see me losing it before the wedding.
