Is This Dress Appropriate For A Wedding

Is a backless dress appropriate for a wedding?

Sure, why not. There's nothing scandalous about showing your back. Showing cleavage is another story and should be avoided.

Is this dress appropriate for a wedding?

I'm going with my boyfriend to his cousin's wedding on saturday. I was starting to pack for our weekend when I realized my dress may be too white. I haven't been to too many weddings but I know your not supposed to wear white unless you're the bride. This dress has a white background. The pictured dress os the one I bought last summer and was planning on wearing.

Is this wedding dress appropriate?

So here is my question.

My best friend recently became engaged, and is planning her wedding. There is a Pnina Tornai dress she has always dreamed of having, but she could not afford the price, so she never really thought about it too much.
It just so happened that someone is selling the exact dress local on Craigslist for less than half the price. It is in perfect condition, and she doesn't mind wearing a second hand dress at all. We went and tried it on and it fit her PERFECTLY..she won't even need alterations! It is like it was meant to be. She looked SO AMAZING.
Now here is the problem: She is worried about what OTHER people will think. As you can see, the lace midsection of the dress is a bit sheer. You can't see like her belly button or anything, but it is sheer fabric. SHe is worried people will think the dress is "trashy" and talk about her behind her back. I don't get the big deal? It is a long dress, it only shows the TINIEST amount of cleavage ( I wouldn't even call it cleavage, the dress is actually very modest in the neckline, and she is not large-chested so it works perfectly).
Who cares if part of the front panel is semi sheer? She is NOT getting married in a church, and NOT having a religious ceremony, so she doesn't have to worry about that.
She also doesn't care if it looks outdated years from now..she wants something that is different, and that she will love NOW. She doesn't mind looking back 25 years from now and laughing at her dress choice.
She just wants to look young, sexy, fun, unique, and classy on her wedding night, but a couple people have told her that the dress is "anything but classy" "trashy" "hookerish" and the like.
I am suspecting these are just negative jealous comments, but now she is all broken up about it.
She wants her dream dress SO BADLY, but she does not want people to talk about her behind her back.
What do you think of the dress and situation??

Here is a link to the dress:

Is a low-cut dress appropriate to wear to a wedding?

as long as you're not taking away attention from the bride, i don't see the issue. take a cover up in case someone makes a comment.

my colors for my wedding were white and a cabernet red. my husband's cousin decided to wear a red dress. the same exact color as the bridesmaids' dresses. as did my brother in law's then gf. i thought it to be extremely tacky and inappropriate to say the least. the gf said she didn't know but i assume she has a brain and could have asked. the cousin supposedly knew the wedding colors. then again she lacks common sense with basic life principles.

Is a sweater dress appropriate for a fall wedding?

Yes, of course. Wear it with some fabulous flats/heels or a great pair of dress boots to give it that extra touch of dressiness.

This would be a great look for a fall wedding:

Lots of high-end stores carry gorgeous, very appropriate sweater dresses. The people who are saying "no," I think, are imagining those boxy oversized sweaters people used to wear 20 years ago.

Confuse which dress is appropriate to my small civil wedding.?

The one on the right is appropriate.
The others aren't appropriate, and quite honestly will look like you tried to have a big wedding and found you couldn't afford it. They don't look well made, and the one on the left actually looks like a nightgown.

Stick with a tea length dress. That is in keeping with the wedding you are actually having, and won't suggest you got caught not planning well. Since your wedding is in December, you might even make it a little bit richer looking by adding a feather or faux fur boa around the top - it would be easy to do, and they sell both by the yard at any larger fabric and craft store.
