Is this dress inappropriate for a wedding?

My boyfriend said he thinks this dress isn't appropriate for a wedding because it's red? This is new to me? The last two weddings we've been to I've wore red and he didn't say anything. So I'm just wondering what peoples thoughts are is this appropriate?

I don't know what thread this belongs in!

@Cornettoninja what do you actually think is going to happen? Mobs outside the door? Heckles in the street? Jeeeze

*Jesus, I’ve just checked your posting history.

Dude, you are very free and easy with your personal details on an anonymous forum. Fine if you’re not bothered by it but I hope you wise up before your baby is old enough to access the internet.*

God alive @Cornettoninja go off and get a life somewhere . You sound super stalky.

Where do you get off telling people what to think and do?

Take a look at yourself.

*hats something at least. Your BF happy with his photo linked to this thread through an international media site too?

Fine if you’re fine with it. Fits really.*

Wow! Don't be weird.

Are you @humanpotato ? I'm confused...

Wrong thread?

Cornettoninja · 28/06/2022 10:38

@sunglassesonthetable who the fuck asked you? Pretty sure @humanpotato is perfectly capable of fighting her own battles without you sticking your oar in.

Pointing out a bit of basic internet safety is hardly an attack. If you take it that way you need to ask yourself why that is tbh.

Looking at the dress... personally I do think it's a bit too much arm/boob/leg flesh but if you've got the body to wear it, go for it!

Also depends on whether guests will do cats bum mouth at you!

I once got told by the bride (white) at a Hindu ceremony (before the wedding) to 'cover up' as I'd worn a sort of lacey top (a bit low cut but not much) with a pale pink knee length skirt suit. My other friend who was there was wearing a long dress but showed so much cleavage she certainly looked a bit much but nothing was said to her. This bride hated me though and only invited me as she felt she had to, we had friends in common and would've looked very bad if I wasn't invited!

The photos haven’t been posted on the DM, so if you want the thread taken down so you’re not recognised IRL (particularly after your post about your employer) you can report your post to MNHQ OP, they do usually take down threads that have been posted elsewhere when requested.

It is a lot of personal information to be putting out. Even if you’re happy with whatever you’ve posted already being identifiable as you, you may forget in the future and post something you wouldn’t want people you know IRL to know.

Bullying stalker? That’s what you’ve chosen to take from what I posted?

you crack on encouraging people to ignore the potential pitfalls of posting personal information on here. God help anyone whose side you choose to take. You’re a liability.

@sunglassesonthetable for what it's worth, I agree with you.

sunglassesonthetable · 28/06/2022 12:16

Washing, You're probably having your posting history scanned right now.

Not appropriate. It’s awful, anyway.

CandyLeBonBon · 29/06/2022 23:30

It's not really, technically a Bardot style though?

humanpotato · 25/06/2022 10:37

I wore this sorta similar also not x

Wow you look bloody amazing! I don't know much about proper wedding etiquette dress rules, but quite frankly if someone can pull off that level of classy-glam...who cares?😘

CherryRipe1 · 01/07/2022 11:25

I originally said the dress was tawdry but the picture of you is lovely. You look very cute with a good figure & can pull that dress off, it's very you.

crystalvas perhaps you could order her a an old cloth sack from Seasalt or Boden to wear on the day? Paired with a nice swishy scarf and some sensible walking boots? Hint of tinted moisturiser and some Vaseline to the lips and she’ll be grand. Why are you so angry at the OP, it’s just a dress 🤷🏽‍♀️

Oh dear you have taken it all personally. You need to cool off and do something about your anger issue. Just read your post back to yourself.
