Which one, out of the two, for a wedding. It's a (not very close) friends wedding. Thanks Smile

I think it would have to be a LOT less booby on you for that to be wedding appropriate. It looks like the side of the dress is quite skimpy too.
Go for the long, dark dress. It is not typical wedding attire, but I don't think it would bother anyone, or attract any negative opinions, unlike the other two options. I've seen people wear that kind of thing to weddings before - its not perfect, but I can understand you not wanting to buy a new dress when you're not that close to the couple anyway.

Not that one either - it's a wedding, not clubbing.

dontpokethebear · 18/07/2017 23:48

Holyfuckamoly that is a lot of boob for a wedding.
Have you/she not got something knee length?

MrsChopper · 18/07/2017 23:49

The 3rd one looks really skimpy too!

Ceebs85 · 18/07/2017 23:50

Neither are appropriate for a wedding. You have a lovely figure though.

You might get away with the second if you wore flat sandals with it to make it less 'christmas evening do'

m0therofdragons · 18/07/2017 23:50

Of the options I'd go for the first with a cardigan but what if it's hot? Plus a cardi doesn't hide how short it is. None are wedding appropriate at all but I guess it depends on the wedding couple and who will be there. I'm judging it based on weddings I've been to.

Weddingoutfit · 18/07/2017 23:50

It is a small dress and she is 34ee. (And also hasn't wore it to a wedding!) So like I said , it would look totally different on me. Back to the drawing board then.

None of those dresses!

TerfwithaNerf · 18/07/2017 23:53

The last one really isn't suitable either, regardless of boob size.

"it's a wedding, not clubbing."

This.

Janus · 18/07/2017 23:54

Sorry but none of the above. A wedding is quite a formal occasion and all of those look like something to wear on a night out. You could possibly get away with the first if you have a jacket to put over the skimpyness of the dress at the top?
Please, you don't want to stand out for the wrong reasons. On any other type of night out I'd say all of them look fab! But not for a wedding, it's in the middle of the day, think of something you'd wear in the middle of the day not an evening.

If you are looking for a cheaper option, check out sainsburys or asda.

I found this gem online.

yourerubberimglue · 19/07/2017 00:14

One is too skimpy, 2 is too black tie .... next

yourerubberimglue · 19/07/2017 00:15

And honestly the skimpy one doesn't look good ... it looks trampy.

If only those 2 then I'd go for the second.

Turvey94 · 19/07/2017 00:21

I don't get why people have to be so bloody offensive! Hmm

Day - option 1 w. cardi
Evening - Option 2

tangledup123 · 19/07/2017 00:23

First one looks OK for the beach, second for a prom, third for a nightclub. If I had to choose it would be option two, as the others are far too revealing. But I really would try to find something more wedding-appropriate. Have a look in charity shops if you're on a tight budget.

CremeFresh · 19/07/2017 00:51

When is the wedding ? Have you got time to order something online ?

Weddingoutfit · 19/07/2017 01:08

Didn't really want to order anything else that's why I said 'out of the two' . Never mind x

Weddingoutfit Just focus on the replies that actually do what you ask and pick either Option 1 or Option 2. Smile People are so critical and miss the point.

MommaGee · 19/07/2017 01:20

Unless its a really posh do, dress 2 though lovely is a bit too much. I'd do 1 with a jacket or cardigan or wrap.

steph0488 · 19/07/2017 01:23

Option one with a cardigan or jacket - a pinky one to match the flowers :)

tangledup123 · 19/07/2017 01:58

I said two earlier but I've changed my mind - I'd go for the first dress with a cream cardi and flat sandals.

NashvilleQueen · 19/07/2017 06:35

I think if it's a traditional wedding in a church then options 1 & 3 will be too revealing and may leave you feeling a bit uncomfortable. Out of the two of them option 1 is my preference worn with a cardigan.

If you were only going to the evening do then option 2 would be fine. If it's a summer wedding and you're there all day then my personal view is that it looks more Christmas party than wedding.

If buying something is a problem because of finances then how about trying a charity shop (go to one in a posh area - that's what people say!). You're lovely and slim so there will be good options.
