Well that's why I am asking. I have no intention of buying it now I've asked. But I've seen white dresses with patterns being told they are ok before so wondered.... And didn't want to go for it and it not be ok. I'd have been ok if someone wore it to my wedding.

I mean, I have seen threads in which the base colour isn't white -fair enough.
Regardless of what MN says (and MN hates weddings anyway) it's easier to just choose another colour.
I'd find it rude if someone wore this because they could have worn literally ANYTHING else. It's not like they have only one dress....

Anyway what do you like about this dress that's unique, I'm we can find some similar

With a back and side like that ? No.

Annoyingly the bits I like the most are the cut out and the colour/pattern. I do tend to gravitate towards white and wear it a lot.

I've never had a maxi dress before and that out me off a bit, would prefer shorter length as I'm only 5'3

I like it and have seen similar at weddings - how well do you know the bride and groom. Wear what you want! X

White + floral + flowing skirt + full length + backless is every kind of no together! Unless you're the bride at a casual beach wedding ofc - ?

I'm always slightly mystified by these 'is this ok for a wedding' questions, of all the millions of dresses that can be bought, is a white floor length cutout dress the only one you like? it's not suitable/ pretty attention seeky too.

My point exactly.

Yes, it's the cut away sides and back that's wrong - not the colour and pattern.
