Wedding guest outfit - what colour is this dress? How to accessorise?

Any idea what colour this is? The video looks different (silver and nude) to the photo (mint and pink) and the buyers / reviewers photos look different again. Maybe it’s a bit like a rainbow trout !?! … and I might look like an old trout in it.

How would you accessorise it? I would need some sort arm covering - kimono jacket thing? Any ideas what would suit. It’s for a summer wedding. Do sequins work in the day? What colours would you accessorise with. I have long red hair, blue eyes and pale skin (although likely go for a light fake tan).

the photo on the right looks like a veil and bouquet would go with it!

Oh I never considered that - is it too white/pale for a wedding?

I think so. Flowers on a pale cream background is ok!

Regarding green dress:, does it have another colour in it? I really like sorbet colours with pale green. So for me pale pink is the best colour. Easy to source and wear. Sequins is a no from me.

@DFOD
Definitely pale pink now I’ve seen the dress.

I think it's pretty flashy for a wedding if you know what I mean.

Roman have several pink jackets.

Oh I can see that one of the buyers is wearing pink shoes so must be pink in it?

Yes worried it might be too bling - but thought metallics are in and it could fall within that bracket. Could you “dim the bling” with different materials / accessories? Could it look vintage?

I couldn’t wear pink close to my red hair ….

The reviews have 2 photos from customers and they both look pinky / green.

Yes I have posted them above - they just look so different from each other - don’t like the pale one on RHS - maybe it’s just the lighting. I prefer the dark greener tone on the LHS or the silver/nude from the video. I wonder if these were from
a previous season?
