I don't have the boobs for it, but I would if I could!

Fab colour.

HollyBollyBooBoo · 05/05/2019 10:22

Yes it's gorgeous!

Aimily · 05/05/2019 10:25

Yes, it's gorgeous and that colour is lovely!

BiggerBoat1 · 05/05/2019 10:25

Wowzers!

It is gorgeous! If you've got the boobs for it then definitely.

Mokepon · 05/05/2019 10:27

Yes. But with some tit tape Wink.

HarryDaylight · 05/05/2019 10:27

It's too low cut.

Hoppinggreen · 05/05/2019 10:27

Although it is a lovely dress it’s quite cheap ( in terms of £) and given some of the horrors that arrive when cheap dresses are ordered from unknown overseas websites via Amazon I would be concerned about what would turn up
I say order it but have a plan B

troppibambini · 05/05/2019 10:28

No it looks really really cheap sorry

MakeLemonade · 05/05/2019 10:28

I agree probably a bit too low cut for a wedding, especially if it’s in a church. Not terribly keen on the fabric either, worry it might look a bit cheap in the flesh.

Sigh81 · 05/05/2019 10:33

I think it may be a bit too plungey for a wedding, though think it depends on the size of your chest: if you're very very small up top (ie no cleavage) then might work better.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 05/05/2019 10:35

It’s a bit shiny - is it an evening wedding

SrSteveOskowski · 05/05/2019 10:35

Yes, definitely. It's a beautiful dress.

Madbengalmum · 05/05/2019 10:36

No, because it looks cheap. Sorry

MustardScreams · 05/05/2019 10:37

No that material looks awful, sorry.

There’s similar shaped dresses in much, much nicer fabric.

ThankYouDebbie · 05/05/2019 10:37

Would have the same worry about the fabric.

Honeybooboo123 · 05/05/2019 10:38

Not a church wedding.

It's an American brand that sell here via Amazon.

Apparrently the quality is good.

I like the style and deep green colour but not the cheap overly shiny finish. And it looks like one of those nasty Chinese made dresses that turn up looking and fitting completely different to the pic.

LizzieMacQueen · 05/05/2019 10:39

Agree with PP it is awfully cheap, pricewise for a made to order item. I'd look elsewhere.

Sigh81 · 05/05/2019 10:41

FWIW, having gone to a lot of posh London weddings with a lot of wealthy/privileged people, the tendency is to be demure/low-key (beautiful material, classic cuts, fitted shapes).

Pinkyyy · 05/05/2019 10:41

Quality looks terrible and too low cut in my opinion. Beautiful colour though,have you looked for something else in the same colour?

Lemonsquinky · 05/05/2019 10:45

The neckline plunges to the waist! No I wouldn't wear it to a wedding as I'd feel naked.

Honeybooboo123 · 05/05/2019 10:47

It will be lots of city types I think.

mimibunz · 05/05/2019 10:48

Dupioni is silk so if that’s the fabric it’s not cheap. It might just not photograph well. Lovely colour!

NoBaggyPants · 05/05/2019 10:48

The picture is lovely, but eshakti stuff tends to be cheaper materials and I think that would show in the item itself, in real life as opposed to a picture.

I'd also worry about being a bit showy, when others will be on the more reserved side.

NoBaggyPants · 05/05/2019 10:50

I'd put money on it being a faux silk, so polyester.
