Is this jumpsuit too ‘sexy’ for a wedding

[Confusgurl]

Please help!
I’m 32 weeks pregnant and struggling on what to wear to a wedding this weekend!
Ive bought the attached jumpsuit and I love it on me, feel confident and comfortable.

my issue is that it hugs my bump very well and it’s pink, do you think it will look like I’m trying to show off my bump too much?
I don’t like being the centre of attention and certainly don’t want to up stage the bride.

The wedding is one of my boyfriend’s friends and my boyfriend is best man. So whilst I know people there, it’s not like they are my direct friends as such.
I worry people will talk about me as if I’m trying to show off.
Or I could be completely overthinking it!
How much do you think I should ‘show’ my bump?
is it too sexy?

helpppppp!!

@NoelJo

how hideous!
People like that should be ashamed of themselves

EXACTLY

I think it's grand. Stick a blazer over it for day time and you're good to go

If I saw someone in that jumpsuit at a wedding, @Confusgurl, I'd just think it was a gorgeous colour, and how great you looked in it. As long as you like it, and you are comfortable in it (and going to the loo lots of times in it), I think it is fine for a wedding. It definitely looks like you have made an effort to look dressed up - and you can dress it up more with jewellery of course. I might add a fascinator rather than a hat.

I am sure you will look lovely!

Each to their own but to me it looks like Pregnant Barbie wandered out of the recent movie.

How does it look with flats as I imagine spending the day in heels won’t be your thing, and it looks like something that needs heels to even begin to pull it off, if possible.

Just had chance to read through everyone’s replies, thanks guys!

there’s some interesting… responses but hey, I did ask!!

the quality isn’t bad at all, better than I thought and really thick.
the colour is more muted pink than the photo, defo not HOT PINK!!
I ordered the blue aswell and that’s brighter than the pink, like a petrol blue!

I agree with other posters that maternity dresses seem to think you ballon up everywhere not just your bump so they are hideously MASSIVE!
im also aware it’s £7 but I’m not spending money on something I’m going to wear once!!

I haven’t put any weight on other than my bump and it’s a small one at that.

I still think I may pop up town to look at some other things tonight just incase…

I love it! It looks a bit low cut if I'm honest but I'm short so have to be really careful as most v necks are obscene on me so I'd wear something under it and a navy blazer. As others have said unless you can get a lovely floaty cut right maxi dress most things at 32 weeks look like a tent.

I would absolutely not wear flats, heels all the way 😂

It is a lovely outfit for a wedding @Confusgurl please don't tie yourself in knots. And please dear God do not wear a black dress and shawl. You will look like a mob widow circa 1940's.

Comments on this thread are hilarious! It would never have occur to me that people would be thinking/making nasty comments about me being attention seeking because I am pregnant and therefore have a visible bump that I'm not trying to hide.

It's lovely OP, if the material isnt too thin, which you say it isn't.

Enjoy the wedding!

😂😂 yes I’m not sure when shawls were ever a good idea to be honest!!

I think it's fine as long as your comfy in it. Pair it with a nice blazer and you will be grand.

At 32 weeks pregnant I think as long as your comfy and reasonably smart then that's the main thing!
I have seen way worse at weddings including multiple tight fitting dresses which just about cover their bums. Or the sister of the groom who wore a full ballgown as protest to not being a bridesmaid and said she was the only one who made an effort.....the wedding was in a field!

Depends on the fastenings. Fine if it's a simple slip on and off but if there is long back zip and/ or hooks and eyes involved (I've got quite a dressy jumpsuit that's a devil for these) you may want to plan visits to the loo a bit in advance! Particularly if pregnancy, queues, booze or distance to the ladies' is a factor.

At the risk of sounding a bit mean OP, if I’d started this thread I’d have initially questioned my choice after seeing some criticism (that’s just what I’m like…).

BUT having now read some of the outfit suggestions from the critics I’m not sure I’d be taking their advice regarding this really.

Wear it and enjoy the last few weeks of your bump and pregnancy as much as you can.

I think you’ll look great in the jumpsuit.

It's nice and not attention grabbing. You shouldn't feel as though you have to hide your bump either. It's not attention seeking to be pregnant. It's just part and parcel of your changing figure.

The second dress that @PorkPieForStarters linked from boohoo is STUNNING. Of to go see if they do a non maternity version. Got a wedding in Greece next year, it would be perfect.
Thank you!

You're getting lots of snooty snippy replies not because it's unsuitable, too revealing, too attention seeking or whatever the hell, but because it's from Boohoo and costs seven quid.

Should it come from Net-a-Porter and would be 300-500 at the minimum, it could be the same colour, same fabric and it would receive rave reviews. I've seen some absolute crap suggested, also in bright colours and not even made of the MN beloved 'naaaturaaaaal fiiiiibres' with a hefty price tag - it's been met with oooooh, that's so lush! and the like.

Alternatively you could choose a shapeless amish sack or something with 'sharp architectural lines' in colour dirge-bilge from Cos, toast, me+em or that absolutely dull overpriced ugly place Sezanne for 200+ and it would also do.

Meanwhile in reality, whilst not super fashion forward - the jumpsuit is fine and the colour is fine too. It's in no way a 'monstrosity', please. A monstrosity was that piggy-pink desiiiiigner leather maxi dress for 2000 quid from yesterday's 'what to wear on a date' thread. No one will talk about you in hushed tones, stare daggers or be mortally offended/shocked. Bride wouldn't care. Pretty sure there will be tonnes of women wearing similar things.

As for the 'black dress and shawl' - what the hell..

I think it is lovely, good shape, stylish and a beautiful colour. Wear it!

If it was white and flouncy then someone might thinking you were taking attention from the bride, otherwise it is expected one looks good at a wedding.

Haha, love it thank you!!

I was starting to think the same about the feedback and the price, but there’s no way I’m spending much more on a maternity dress (shawl and all!!!)

I think it's fine, especially if it's a young crowd sort of wedding rather than your great Aunt's.

I do think you will draw attention to your bump, which is fine, but it sounds like you'd rather not. People do love an impending baby and I think if it was a wedding of say your own group of uni friends who haven't seen each other in a while then the bright colour and the figure hugging would draw attention. But it sounds like you won't know that many people, in which case you'll look like a confident, pregnant woman.

I would have worn similar (also just a small bump) but maybe not in such a bright colour. Get someone you trust to check your vpl!

I think it’s quite sexy and also quite nice. What’s wrong with looking sexy anyway?? If you like it wear it. Not everyone wants to waddle around in floaty dresses (which with a big bump can look a bit frumpy and mumsy).

@ViaMargutta well said! 😅 The absolute vitriol directed at some poor sod the other day who dared to say they like Joules ... hell's teeth! God forbid we like different things.

OP, I think the jumpsuit is great and I really like the colour. Hope you have a lovely time.

@sosickofbeingskint

what?

it wasn't unkind and it wasn't any different to a good half of the other posts.

very odd.

I’m a fairly old fogey and I think if you feel comfortable and confident in it , wear it, you’ll look fabulous!
