I need to buy an outfit for a wedding so I was interested to see this Guardian article. But dear God the first one they list can only be described as a sack! Wedding guest outfits

The me and em and aligne dresses are the only 2 I would vaguely consider.

Most of them say beach holiday at best or are just hideous.

@Lunaballoon well if it looks like a sack, is the colour of a sack. then it is a sack! a sack of shit!!

I mean where's the laughing emoji when you need it?

On your phone or via the smiley face at the bottom of the text box where you type your post on the right. Typing open square bracket grin close square bracket also works Grin

I wouldn't wear any of those to wedding least of all number 1. Some are ok as a day dress but most are hideous & look quite frumpy. I'd not feel dressy enough for a wedding.

I think you are being unkind to sacks

Sandals | Possession Platform II Jelly Sandals | Melissa Shoes
Maybe this is the trend.

Out and about yesterday, I spotted a young man in bermuda-lenth sawn off jeans and bright yellow crocs with no socks. He looked so cool.

Wrong thread!

I used to cry as a child because I didn't have plastic sandals - asked my mother if we were too poor to get them 😂

lol, that dress is awful…. Sack of potatoes comes to mind!!!!

SouthernNights59 · 24/10/2025 22:26

The first one I agree is hideous, but I can't actually see what is wrong with most of the others. It seems wedding attire in the UK is different to what it is here!!! I can't imagine what many of you would wear to a wedding. Confused

Bloody hell, who's getting married? Krusty the clown?? 🤡
