Is this dress inappropriate for a wedding?

[humanpotato]

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!

Red is fine but the dress it very tarty. Most definitely not a dress for a wedding, neither day nor evening.

Sorry but the dress looks even cheaper than the pricetag.

the colour is definitely not the issue.

OP wear wft you want

I think you know yourself OP honestly where what you fancy and fuck everyone else . I wasn’t keen on the dress but to be honest wearing it with dreads and piercings and with your alternative style will make it pretty unique . I used to wear fancy dresses with my docs and loved feeling different . You do you pal !

That's right, who cares as long as the OP is OK?!

Attack the bride for having standards? Why should she spend a fortune on a wedding to have someone cheapen it with that dress? The bride is the priority at a wedding, not the guests.

Etiquette was taught to be by my parents. Along with spelling, grammar and dignity, it seems to me a lost art.

The dress is more suited to a club. The wearer of such a dress is attention seeking. Rent or borrow a sophisticated designer dress or look through a charity shop in an affluent area if all you can afford is cheap tat. The guest's goal should be to blend in with the surroundings and let the bride shine. As her guest, you should avoid attire that could be considered informal or in bad taste. It doesn’t have to be dootsy or overly modest but dress appropriately for the occasion!

It’s not rocket science!

Anyone heard of manners or consideration for others? Clearly not.

You won’t have the embarrassment of having a daughter who looks forward to her wedding only to have guests turning up dressed like they are performing at a cabaret then.

The dress is awful, nothing to do with putting anyone down.

Not putting girls down at all - putting the dress down. It is cheap and classless.

Sorry Mrs Bucket 🤣 (keeping up appearances incase you missed the reference)

You're just being rude now.

You asked if the dress is appropriate for a wedding. Loads of people have said no. Somehow this has been translated as people putting you down when they are just saying the dress is inappropriate.

You have decided to ignore this and wear it anyway. It says a lot more about you than anyone else. Having some thought for the bride and knowing a wedding isn't about you upstaging everyone has nothing to do with Mrs Bucket.

@FootontheHeartbreak not sure why you quoted me, my response was to ichifanny and it was obviously (maybe not) sarcastic.

OMG - I saw this dress in the flesh yesterday at Henley Regatta of all places - not in the stewards enclosure but one of the bars after the races.

Have to say, this dress looked very cheap. Didn't hang well, material all crumpled. The arm 'bands' just looked horrific. The eplit at the front went quite high

Send it back @humanpotato

Totally agree with this.

Agree with this.

Call me old fashioned but. Yes it is very inappropriate.
This is a party dress.
Soft colours and something chic. Is better

My friends and family all know what a dress code is and yes I definitely would! Mind you, I don’t have any tacky friends so it’s academic. If my mother in law saw her first, she’d sort it for me - she taught me well!

I wouldn’t humiliate anyone in public. I’m not tactless. But I’m not passive aggressive either - if I don’t like something, it’s imparted directly.

ps I’d never use that common voice either. I’m Irish, our voices are melodic 😂 😝

It's an extremely cheap looking classless dress, and thats visible in pictures so imqgine its worse in real life

totally not appropriate for a wedding. Maybe over a bikini on the beach for cocktails , if the material is wearable?

Why dont you not change your outfits and combine the cost of the two very cheap dresses to get a good dress

This, it's hideous!
