Too white for a wedding??

[xyz111]

Is this dress too white for a wedding??

Yes I think it is - if the top was broken up with another colour it would be ok but I wouldn't choose it for a wedding as it is.

So frustrating as I love it, and have no where else to wear it 🤦🏻‍♀️ I have got another outfit just in case, but was so torn between the 2

I don't think it is.

Do you have a large , chunky necklace in any of the darker colours of the dress?

It’s lovely and perfect for a wedding. I never understand posts that say you can’t wear this, that and the other. It’s an invite, not a summons. It’s not a wedding dress so wear what you like and are comfortable.

Perfect ! And gorgeous !

Large Chunky Necklace

Something like this?

Not because I necessarily think it's too white but (tbh the top is a wee bit dull)

Not too white. No to a big chunky necklace, unless you want to channel your inner Theresa May.

Agree that the top is a bit dull though. Maybe one of those silver chains with a couple of different lengths?

Looks very similar to a dress I wore to a wedding and had a last minute panic about the background being too white. In the end not a single person seemed to notice and I didn't care at all at the wedding. Wear it with your hair down along with bold, chunkier accessories, which is what I did.

I think it looks OK, not remotely bridal. But I'm not the bride or any other potential judgy people. I do know that at the couple of weddings I've been to with DH family ... while nothing said to people's faces the 'white dress wearers' were definitely remarked upon. By future MIL and her friends. We're getting married in a few months and woe betide anybody else who wears white, even though I'm not going to be bothered personally.

There are so many other colours it's not hard to avoid white. You say yourself OP you have another option, your only reason for wearing THIS number is you have 'nowhere else to wear it to'. Where are you going to wear the other option to then?

*DH as in we're legally married already due to my being foreign

Lovely for a wedding

Too white. Its not about being "bridal". It will draw the eye in photos so a good photographer will spend ages trying to hide you behind people

Why do people keep posting threads asking 'is this outfit too white for a wedding guest?' And then post a picture of something that is 80-90% white?! If you have to ask, then YES it's too bloomin' white!

How many photos is the average guest in?

Text the bride and ask her.

Theresa May, especially before she became PM, was an adventurous and stylish dresser.

I agree. She likes Westwood and has/had some nice clothes, but I personally really dislike those chunky necklaces.

Yes, too white.

People aren't going to say it your face even if they do think it!

its absolutely fine, it’s not a white dress and not bridal at all. (It’s also not 80-90% white). It’s not that you shouldn’t wear any white it’s that you shouldn’t TV look like the bride. I’m pretty sure many of the men will be wearing white shirts

I think it's fine (but probably wouldn't wear it myself due to judgy people. I know I shouldn't care, but it would make me feel awkward if I thought people were making comments 🙄). If you're less of a wuss than I am then I like it and don't think you'd be stepping on any bridal toes with it.

Depends if they take head shots in the photos!

I think it’s fine and great for a summer wedding

Fair enough - we agree it needs something to add detail to the top half.

This.

I steer clear of white entirely because many people will think anything white is out of order.

I wouldn't have cared at my own wedding as didn't wear white but it is just easiest to keep away from a potential faux pas I think.
