Could I wear this as a wedding guest or is it too white?

Ignore the long beads....they are distracting

No I don't think it's appropriate sorry

They do exist in real life, I’ve known about not wearing white to a wedding since I was a kid, far longer than I’ve been on Mumsnet, who you seem to weirdly claim have invented these rules.
However, since you’ve divulged how much you love wearing your ivory, white floor length, slip dress to other people’s weddings, your insistent denials are understandable.

Would the ‘pink boho’ version colours suit you? This is more suited to wedding guest if you like the style.

The dress is long and floaty and does appear white, especially if photographed further away or depending on lighting, the dots may not be well captured.

It’s fine

I think it’s more likely people just feel feee to say something about them on MN and because people come here asking.

No one is going to walk up to someone at a wedding and say “ what you are wearing is inappropriate because of x, y, z.” Even if asked, it would be awkward at that point to tell them. If that’s what you mean by “ irl” then you aren’t really going to get a feel for what people are thinking.

I like it and wouldn't care if I was the bride, but I also think if you're having to ask on here that there is a chance you will not be comfortable in it. There is always at least one person who (maybe silently) has an issue with someone wearing a dress that's "too white". I don't agree with them, but equally I avoid mainly white dresses at weddings for this reason. I also didn't know about that rule until someone who worked in Coast told me not to wear a dress I'd picked out to a wedding! Until then I didn't realise this was a thing.

I have never seen a bride in a cream dress with multicoloured metallic dots!
As with some PPs, I wonder whether the
neckline May be a bit low but you know your friends and what the “vibe” is likely to be on
the day,

Wedding etiquette has gone wild. No white I sort of get but this dress is so clearly not a bridal gown, it seems fine? But also apparently you aren’t allowed to wear red, green, black or dark purple now. It’s fucking insane, I couldn’t give a fuck who wore what to my wedding day, I can barely remember anyone else’s outfits.

It is an absolutely stunning dress but I'm not sure for a wedding. Not just because of the colour (but yes, maybe too white) but because it looks more beachside bar/party than wedding dress with the colour, sparkles, shape.

However, it is absolutely beautiful and I can see why you'd want to wear it!

As its “neckline” virtually drops to the waist and it’s obviously a no bra neckline, it’s not a great choice on that alone. It’s definitely a holiday dress when you have a tan. Can you imagine being pasty white and wearing it? It’s a bit lacking in class and “look at me”. Not one for bigger boobs!

I've had another look, and in one picture the necklace is underneath the dress and entirely visible. So the dress is see through. You can't flash your pants and nips at a wedding.

In other pictures the dress is the other way round so the neckline would be at the back. But a white or beige slip dress underneath and it would be fine.

It doesn't look bridal, but it is too white and you shouldn't wear it

It's the skirt bit that's see through too but I suppose a slip would work. Though if the slip was visible it might not look great.
Personally sounds like a bother for a dress that I'm already not sure is appropriate. It's not as though we're short of choice these days.

My initial thought on reading the title is, if you have to ask, just no.

On seeing the dress, I’m surprised you’d even consider it. You’d feel uncomfortable.

Ah I didn’t think about the fact you’d see the slip at the back!

I get what you’re saying though. This does seem more beach cover up than fancy guest.

Yup. And floor length is for black tie or OTT beachwear

I'd wear any colour but black or white/ivory so I wouldn't.

Being honest when I first seen it I thought beach vibes for the top half. It is very lot cut but I've seen your update that you can flip it back to front thus raising the neck line you would need to do it with this dress. My next worry is that it looks very sheer. On one of the pics you can see the blue necklace clearly in cour under the fabric id worry then you can see a lot of possible skin/underwear also making it not very appropriate. Its a beautiful dress otherwise but I also think it might be a tad too white i wouldn't want to upset the bride
