Hi everyone.
I am looking for a dress for a wedding in November.
I was looking at some midi dresses but stumbled across nobody’s child and their dresses are SO up my street! I absolutely adore this dress… but is it just too casual? Even with some pointy shoes?
I feel like it is maybe it is but in all honesty I feel so out of touch with wedding fashion I’m not sure!….
For context I’m 34 😊

It's suxh a gorgeous dress but might be a bit casual...do they have any wintry midi length?

I agree it's a lovely dress but you could feel a bit out of place because it's quite casual - I think it's the combination of the cord, length and style together.

What about this instead

I think it's gorgeous and would be great for a winter wedding. I think the collar is lovely and the colour of the fabric gives it a more formal feel for me. Just get the right shoes, like the pointy ones you mentioned and accessories to lift it a little. Also, I think that how you wear something can make such a difference too, feeling confident etc.

I think it’s fine for a winter wedding

@Ionlymakejokestodistractmyselftha k you for the link! I did see that dress but I want something a bit floaty so I’m not self conscious after the food!

I did consider this. It’s velvet so maybe abut more formal? https://www.johnlewis.com/nobodys-child-starlight-velvet-mini-dress-green/p114198825?size=14&s_ppc=2dx_mixed_fashion_BAU&tmad=c&tmcampid=2&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20158969807&gbraid=0AAAAAD2el1xv6j66fMSXJTt5m_AmvYqLa&gclid=Cj0KCQjw3aLHBhDTARIsAIRij58iJVMGwehgc1c1h3G1wdpuqeQLxnReczO5Ut_q0V5Gjb-gzyx-q3caAq9cEALw_wcB
