    Not as a bride but as a guest :laugh: I heard chicks aren't supposed to wear white but is this okay since it isn't solid white? I don't really know the rules, it is also above the knee... Don't know it that matters 0_o

    Should not be a problem. The only problem would be solid white or wearing the same color as the wedding party.

    I think it looks like a costume, but as far as being appropriate, its on the line. There are so many other colors, just let the bride be the one in white/ivory/ecru. I guess it would be okay if the dress code is casual. Check and see if the bridal party is wearing something similar. I had a friend wear a purple dress to a wedding not knowing the bridemaids were wearing purple also. It made her feel uncomfortable!
    I totally agree.

    I personally think it's kind of inappropriate. But I guess it depends on the venue.


    Don't forget you are going to be sitting most of the time. How short is that thing going to be when you sit down?

    Colour-wise it's fine, it looks silver to me.

    But yeah, keep in mind that it's short and you're going to be sitting in it. I personally don't like the dress, there are so many more lively, fun wedding dresses out there!

    I love it! I don't see a problem with wearing it, unless at a tea ceremony wedding maybe (the bride wears the same style of dress but in red).
    I've always loved these kind of dresses but wondered if I was too white to pull it off :( lol

    It's a pretty dress.
    However, it looks quite short to wear to a wedding.

    also, while it's pretty, I'm not sure the coloring of the dress would go well with your complexion. I'd look for something with a gold tone.

    **While it doesn't need to go past your knee, it should be relatively close.

    Way cute, not too white in a way that looks like you are trying to upstage the bride...I'd go for it.

    I wouldn't. I think the black trim saves it from being too white, but overall, it's costum-y and pretty short. If you knew for a fact it would work with the type of wedding your friend was having, then sure -- but that dress is designed to stand out, and you're not the one who's supposed to be standing out at someone else's wedding. Not to say you can't look great; it just shouldn't be a dress that screams "look at me!"
    It's a cute dress, though -- maybe for something else?

    I think you'd look very cute in it but I think it might be just a touch on the short side for a wedding if you're up and down with seating, photos etc., love the website and thought this one would be perfect! http://www.periwing.com/whisper-flowers-cap-sleeves-mini-dress-01041602.html

    Yes but I wouldn't. You have a really nice rack in your photos and a good shape. That cut of dress is meant to create a woman's shape on a flat chested girl. You would do better to where something with a lower neckline and some structure. Have fun at the wedding!!
