can i wear this to a wedding?

Mrspetal, 13 April, 2013 at 09:59 Posted on Planning 0 10


im not too sure if its too purple? its got a pretty lace section on the back which joins upto the shoulders.

boohoo also do it in black and im more tempted to get the black one and jazz it up with gold bits and bobs.

what do you all think? Thanks in advance.

    I'd say it's fine, BUT check the bridesmaids aren't in any shade of purple, otherwise it could look as if you're trying to join them.

    Then I think it'll be a perfect choice.

    Just bought one myself, sorry for stealing your dress idea!

    I think it's a lovely choice ? I think a black one in the same style would be too black for a wedding, IMO.

    Do you think I could dull the purple down by adding cream?

    Thinking some nice shoes a belt and bangles?

    I like it and would definitely choose the purple- I think there may be some loose rule about avoiding black at weddings,although I could be wrong...

    It's lovely! Although purple is my favourite colour so biased! It's a great length and cut for if you're going to be running around after little one too! I agree with the other ladies about not going for the black.

    Haha how funny would that be! I got purple, going to dress it down a bit. If I was an evening only guest I might have gone for black and dressed it up with gold or something but I'm always prone to wearing bright colours haha! x
