...to a wedding if you are not the bride? What if the dress has a pattern on it?
-
That dress is way too white.
I think the only acceptable time is when it is specified by the theme (ie. the invite tells you to).
-
Nope! There are so many other colors in the rainbow, though.
-
I wouldn't, it's much easier to just find a colored dress. Not worth having people whisper about you all night.
-
There are many other colours to choose from.
-
Sorry I will have to say that's way too white for a wedding.
-
I think if you have to ask the answer is no. (Not YOU you, general you
)
-
That's what I thought you guys would say! I wish the dress came in a different color...I LOVE the style and cut, I tried it on and it's super flattering but of course I would not want to make a faux pas!
Someone find me a colored dress that looks like this!!
-
I don't think so. My mom does this all the time, and it drives me crazy. She even wore off white to my wedding.
-
@Ginabean3: Maybe try Asos or Modcloth? They both have tons of cute a-line dresses like that!
-
I think white with big huge colorful patterns is fine! not that dress.. you should get it anyway though
-
@knittylady: @raindrop: I will check out modcloth, thank you!
-
How well do you know the bride? That's clearly not a bridal dress (or even a 2nd reception dress) and it has stripes. If I knew the bride well, I'd email her. I wore a cream dress to a wedding this past weekend and no one thought I was stealing any thunder.
-
@beaker: ha! You're such an enabler!
-
If I was the bride I honestly wouldn't care less. But it's my personal rule to not wear white to weddings just to be respectful of other brides who may care.
-
Not that dress. It's too cute! I once wore a white dress with an all over gold metallic print. My SIL wore a white dress with red and black flowers on it to my wedding. I'd say the dresses were mostly white, but not detracting from the bride.
-
Nope! I would only if it has other colors, not just white. But when in doubt, I don't wear it.
-
You can wear white if the bride has asked for guests to wear white, or if it's a non-western wedding where the bride doesn't wear white.
-
@Ginabean3: also, many wedding dresses have patterns on them these days. One of my friend's wedding dresses is a pintuck dress with a very similar pattern to what you posted.

My SIL wore white to my wedding and I couldn't care less! It is n't like it was a wedding dress or like anyone would be confused as to who the bride was
-
Not that dress. Patterned with white is ok though!
-
Never!
-
I have one similar to that from anthro (same top half), but in red. Looks like they don't have it anymore. What about this one?
-
@BananaPancakes: great suggestion! I'll have to go to the store and check it out! Thank you!
