Thoughts on wearing Ivory to a wedding

[Trickofthetrade]

Going to wedding in July. Is it ok these days to wear ivory ?

To add what I'm considering is not flows, silky or wedding-dress-like in any way. I just know at one time this was a big no-no. A friend is also wearing ivory !

Not flowy I mean !

Is it plain or patterned? If plain, it's a no, if patterned it might be ok depending on the pattern

If it's heavily patterned it might be OK but otherwise no

Ivory really is white, isn’t it? Not a great idea.

Best be cautious, so don't do it.

Have you got a photo of the dress? If it's predominantly ivory though then I wouldn't say it was appropriate.

No it’s not OK

Its so subjective these days, pop a picture up and we can advise.

My late mil did!😀

Add a picture of the dress or similar one for context.

Initial answer - absolutely not.

No. Many brides wear ivory or cream.

It's just not done for a guest to do so.

Absolutely not.

Nope
Not OK.

No.

you’ll look like a dick.

If you have to ask the question you probably shouldn't be wearing it.

No is a complete sentence.

Not unless it's mostly pattern tbh

A black bin bag would be preferable.

Indeed 😂

I guess it depends on the bride and how well you know her?

I couldn’t have cared less if anyone wore ivory or white at my wedding but I’m guessing from the responses here and previous threads some people would.

No not ok.

I seriously wouldn't. There must be something else you can wear?

I mean ... maybe? Let's see the dress.

Do you like the bride? Are you planning to shout it should have been me?
