Is this smart enough for my sister's wedding?

[MeenzAmRhoi]

Hi everyone,
Would love some opinions please as I am clueless about fashion.

I'll be 6 months pp at my sister's wedding in summer and need something comfy that I can breastfeed in. Would you say this is still smart enough? I don't have a role in the wedding if that makes a difference!

Thank you!

Or what about a trouser suit? They're all back in now and at least then you wouldn't have to strip off completely to feed!

What @Sugarcube84 said. I breast fed for several years and several weddings. A wrap top works really well. I also did it in a spaghetti strap dress that could be pulled down but without a jacket that is rather revealing.

That dress is rather frumpy and a bit casual really. I've been to many weddings breastfeeding (I've had 3 kids) and I have either worn a skirt and top (top floaty enough to lift up) or just worn whatever I wanted and unzipped my dress, took 1 arm out and used a pretty scarf around me/over my boob. I was breastfeeding with my dress unzipped like this when the bride entered for one wedding (church wedding) there was no flashing, I just got someone to zip my dress back up when I was done. There's really no need to limit yourself to fugly dresses. Many outfits work, the dresses that cross over at the front you could easily feed in.

It's too casual for a wedding.

Don’t get that oriental jojo dress linked up top. I wore that for a wedding and it was really hard to feed in, you had to untie the bow at the back, lift the flap, and try and unhook your bra through the neckline, then arrange the slit towards your nipple as it was in totally the wrong place.

I second fabulous trouser suit. Breastfeeding clothes are generally either frumpy or really hard to feed in because they’ve focused too much on being ‘discrete’.

Like a lot of people, I never got on with breastfeeding clothes. I always did the best under a top thing and pulled up the top and pulled down the best, but appreciate that's no good for a wedding!

Maybe something with buttons down the front? Also, some babies aren't breastfeeding all that frequently from 6 mo so you won't be in and out of it all day as you are in the beginning

I would say it looks a bit casual in that picture. Depends how it looks on you though. With accessories might look different. But you'd probably not want many faffy accessories with a babe in arms. Hope you find something you feel comfortable in that ticks all the boxes.

Wrap dresses are really easy to breastfeed in. I went to a formal lunch for my Dad’s 70th when dd was six months old, and I wore a silk jersey wrap dress with a print, ( the print was to hide any dribbled milk ) it was very easy to feed in because of the wrap and stretch jersey, comfortable and cool too.

I don't know what your budget is, sorry if you've said somewhere. What about something like this? This is a bit long, but it could be taken up. It looks as though you could feed baby easily and would be flattering if you had a bit of a tummy.
Don't panic, you still have some time to get something.

I came to say a wrap dress or wrap effect jump suit but someone beat me to it! I breast fed for over a year and didn't buy any specific breast feeding clothes - those that existed weren't very appealing (12 years ago). You could accessorise with a beautiful large summery scarf to help with modesty (if that's a concern).

Seraphine do specific breastfeeding occasion wear dresses…

No it isn’t for your sisters wedding. Way too casual.
