Is this dress too white for a wedding?
Is this dress too white for a wedding? People say it’s not a ‘safe’ choice and ‘uppity guests’ might gossip about me
A woman has sparked a debate online after asking if her floral summer dress was too white for a wedding.
The anonymous woman, believed to be from the UK, recorded it Reddit to share a photo of the dress and explained that she was considering wearing it to an outdoor ceremony in April.
Opinion was divided, however, with some saying the dress was fine to wear because it was floral, while others said it was “too white.”
The user, who posted under the name @lookingformyduck, shared a few snaps of the smocked bodice dress selling for £404 at Revolve.
She wrote, “Is this too white for an April outdoor wedding?” thanks in advance!’

Some argued that it was perfectly acceptable to wear the dress because it is a floral dress with shades of pink.
One person wrote, “Personally, I’m fine with it. No one will mistake you for the bride when you wear this. People here are so picky sometimes. “Oh no, it’s LIGHT GRAY with huge pink flowers! You might as well go up to the altar and kiss the groom”…but you risk some arrogant guests gossiping about you.’
Another said, “I’m totally fine with it. The flowers are large and colorful. I wouldn’t even describe this as a white dress. It’s a pink dress with lots of flowers.’
Someone else wrote, “No one confuses this with a wedding dress, but if you’re not sure, ask the bride.”
“You can also pair it with a pink scarf — that will pull it further away from white and help when it’s chilly.”
While a fourth wrote: ‘I think this is good, it’s definitely pink with flowers. It’s very pretty and with a plain pink wrap and jewelry, it’s perfect for an outdoor spring wedding.”

Another wrote, “This is a nice dress, but I’d say it’s definitely too white.”

While another said, ‘Too white. Avoid anything that has a white base color, or exclude off-whites such as cream, champagne, rouge, etc.
“Depending on your skin tone, look for a tulip (the flower) color such as yellow, orange, or purple for an April wedding. Mauve or navy blue would also look nice.’
Someone else wrote: ‘Way too white. Choose a dress with no white and not nearly white in the palette and you’re safe.’
