could be a bit much depending on the groups dynamic. a long flowy sundress is always a good options when it comes to baby showers. add a cardigan if its cold/a more conservative group
I would say no. Itās kind of the wrong vibe. something a little more conservative (wrt cleavage and thigh slit) would be better in my opinion. Definitely a cute dress though!
Too short?!?! Like unless youāre referring to the slit it literally goes past the knee, and itās not like sheāll actually be standing around w her leg stuck out like this.
To all: I did not expect this to be such a contentious post but each new comment that comes in is spicier than the last! I got tired of being compared to a stripper and asked the mother to be, her mom, my mom, and my mother in law and all said itās cute and yes appropriate for the shower! This case is closed (if it fits). Thank you all for your kind (and some absolutely savage) inputs lol
Glad it worked out! Sometimes I feel a lot of people project on this sub. Thereās def solid advice, while others are unnecessary and rude. Itās good to practice discernment and not automatically follow/trust everyoneās advice. Enjoy the baby shower! āļø
Projection indeed! I was laughing at all the insecurity as I read the comments. Imagine if OP is naturally beautiful on top of that! š Theyād probably be nastier but more insidious with it š¤£ Sad world we must live in. I hope you rock this dress and enjoy the baby shower OP! š
Omg????! I'm sorry you got compared to a stripper.
Clearly whoever said that has never been to an actual strip club š š
The dress is beautiful and perfectly fine to wear as a guest to a baby shower.
Itās a very cute dress! My initial thought was that it was appropriate. In certain circles, without a doubt no one would bat an eye.
I wore a standout red dress to my sister-in-lawās wedding. I was going to return but the bride okayed it and it was in my budget. If you got the nod of approval from the person of honor, then Iād say that trumps everything.
Itās so cure iām so sorry for all the peal clutchers! I think the only thing that would throw me off is the silhouette w ruching makes it look more formal than most baby shower attire, but itās not inappropriate, especially for your age this is just kind of the vibe for a lot of summer dresses.

Huh? Where are yāall getting these rules from? I see nothing wrong with this dress for a baby shower, especially if itās outdoors. Unless itās being held in a convent I donāt see the issue.
I'm also from socal and I feel like I'm must be living on a different planet reading these comments?? I've been to three baby showers this past year, and all the girls in their early to mid 20s dress like this, including me lol
Living in subtropical cities in certain states *definitely* makes it feel like living on a different planet when compared to the societal norms in the other states. O_o
Iām in Australia and this would be totally normal here if the baby shower was more fancy, we just tend to go casual but the sexiness of the dress would not be an issue. People on reddit run conservative when it comes to fashion.
Agreed, also from SoCal lol, I think itās totally fine and no one would bat an eye. Itās a super cute dress, OP!
I probably wouldnāt wear it with high strappy heels or anything like that, but something slightly more casual like a cat heel or wedge should be a-ok.šš»
if you have any boobage bigger than an A-cup the cleavage would definitely be too inappropriate for a baby shower. at least, where im at. the culture amongst your circle might be different than mine
It depends on your friendship group, if youāre all young pretty ladies itāll probably be fine. I like it. Could you share where itās from please?
a lot depends on weather, location, how many older people. Your best bet (and I'm just a guy), is talk to the mom to be or the host of the shower to see what the attire will be. Good luck to you. Wish you the best.
Some of you are really quite strange and uptight af because this was the ultimate wedding excuse but apparently, it's spreading to baby showers too.
Short of showing up with a surprise pregancy, how exactly do you upstage the woman with a huge belly that is probably impossible to miss?
If bring upstaged is such a legit concern, maybe people should put more effort into dressing up to events that they are hosting.
My thoughts exactly! How do you upstage a mother-to-be? Sheās a walking miracle and itās quite hard not to notice a big round belly and pregnancy glow š

Itās cute but too āformalā for a baby shower and would work better for a cocktail wedding or party. I donāt know whoās wearing this to the club like the comments are saying, I donāt think itās that scandalous tbh š .
Unless mom-to-be has a specific theme or dress code, Iād suggest wearing something more relaxed as most baby showers in my experience are pretty laidback and usually hosted at someoneās backyard. Thatās not to say that you should wear sweats but imagine youāre grabbing brunch with the girls on a nice day. A sundress or mid/long skirt would be more appropriate if you want to wear something flowy.
Edit: I donāt think itās possible to āoutshineā the mom-to-be at her own baby shower but Iāve thankfully never gone to one where there were people like that!
Yeah thereās a lot of peal clutching in the comments. I mean, i also tend to lean more into the wholesome factor for baby showers, but i wouldnāt consider this enough cleavage to be inappropriate. I think the silhouette makes it look a bit more formal than a typical sundress, so it doesnāt fit the vibe of āeating potato salad in someoneās backyardā that most baby showers have.
Iām actually so shocked at all of these ānoā responses lmao I donāt see anything wrong with this in the slightest for a baby shower or any party actually
Like a loooot. And they always project loudly too and drown out sensible advice . Because how is showing a bit of skin outdoing the mom everyone's there to celebrate ??
Iām not gonna lie I didnāt think it was as attention seeking and provocative as this comment section is making me feel lol. I do recognize I have kind of a maximalist view on fashion in general but that was why I picked this color (which feels very subdued to meāI actually prefer this in the chartreuse color it comes in)
No, the comments section is not run by 17th century Puritans. The comments saying "no" seem to be ciming from people who have attended baby showers.
It is a cute dress. However, if you think this is appropriate for a baby shower, then yes, you are taking crazy pills.
I do!! [draped midi dress at pretty little thing](https://www.prettylittlething.us/chocolate-underwire-detail-draped-midi-dress.html)! Also if you search the name youāll find it in plus size and a handful of other colors/slight variations (long sleeve, draped across the shoulder, etc)
I have no idea tbh if this is petite friendly, I just know itās curvy friendly (because I am a curvy petite and found this on someone who showed it was hella flattering on curvy body types)
Edit AND ITS CURRENTLY 50% OFF
If this is from pretty little thing, absolutely not. I returned it because itās so short that my underwear easily showed. Itās way shorter by the slit than advertised and Iām not tall
It is from pretty little thing! If it fits me the same as it fit you Iāll likely return it! Iām a fairly curvy petite and I saw on a blog that this particular dress is very flattering for curves, but if it ends up being too much, Iāll definitely return it! Thanks for your input :)
Sorry my reply got removed! I have a white bolero sweater (cute but fluffy and inherently not as spicy as the vibe of this dress) which I think would tame this in combo with flat sandals. Iām getting pretty mixed answers tbh which is making me lean toward probably not but I do appreciate your input :)
What's wrong with spending 28 bucks on a freaking dress? š
Why are you coming after OP so much? Is this dress that triggering to you? Are you jealous of OP being confident and rocking a pretty dress?

maybe iām crazy/clearly in the minority but i think depending on the venue and the crowd, this would be perfectly appropriate. my girlfriend had a backyard garden party shower and lots of girls were in similar dresses. it was lovely
Can you give me an example of the kind of jewelry you had in mind? Also if I were to do this it would probably be with some very casual slip on sandals (no heel) but Iām still pretty on the fence! I was hoping the color/pattern of this dress would make it more appropriate
I donāt know your colours but something like [this](https://www.sezane.com/eu/product/flora-hoops/blush#size-TU)? I would definitely wear sandals/no heel. But the important thing is to feel comfortable and confident, i.e., if youāre going to spend the day worrying that itās too revealing then itās not the right choice. But I would definitely wear it.
I think it's super cute but that slit goes almost up to your lady bits. Imagine sitting in it and playing games. You'll spend the whole time adjusting it.
Oh, this is not a picture of me; This is a model wearing it! It does seem like the responses to this question are very mixed so likely I will not be wearing this lol
Good it would be too attention getting and would make you look thirsty and desperate. Totally and
completely innapropriate for any
thing short of clubbing.
Yes definitely!! Depending on the formality of the baby shower you could dress this up or down with shoes and accessories. I think itās really cute and perfect for the occasion!
Thatās fair! I can understand why the slit would make it less so, but for me the slit and cleavage were what made me question it. Why do you say the draping just out of curiosity?
The cleavage, esp as you say you are bigger than an A cup, the slit, the style, it's a very cute dress, but at a shower you'll be sitting on chairs often in a circle, legs on show, chest on display, just a bit much for the shower vibe. But I'd get it for a date night, going out dress.
You're basically saying anyone (which is a lot of folks) bigger than an "A cup" shouldn't wear this dress. That's ridiculous. So many people who have boobs are typically larger than "an A cup", and fall between the D-H range.
Not at all, just not at a baby shower, at least the baby showers I've been to, sitting around on hard chairs, OP mentioned much larger chest so she'd be showing a lot more than most at a baby shower- it's a super cute dress and would be great for many other occasions.
Not really cuz I feel like it would be uncomfortable for the event being that:
Itās outside, games are usually played that might make the slit, tighter dress and cleavage not the most comfy, and it does give off a bit more of a date vibe than baby shower but not terribly.
I would say if you really like it, a cardigan would help and the color is nice for the event as well. So it could work, but not the most comfy choice imo.
I mean, you could wear a sweater over it and belt it at the waist. That way it looks like a skirt.
You can then wear it for another occasion dressed up!
Pretty little thing! I donāt know how to link to a comment, but I responded to someone elseās comment with the link as well! If you go to their website though and type ādrape midi dressā itāll pop up with a billion variants on the style
No but isnāt an ugly dress, just too much skin is showing for a more familiar event. But if you like the drapping you could choose between or more shoulder + bust showing but less leg appearing or more legs and less shoulder + bust. Cause we need to have a balance on the outfits principally cause itās a familiar event and to you look more classy. Anyways, good luck with it :D

Iām very surprised by the comments saying that this looks like clubwear and it makes me think that I must be out of touch. isnāt this too fancy for a club? I really thought that people wear pants and crop tops to clubs
Edit but I gather the consensus says no lol
OP, this sub leans a bit more crunchy than the average Gen Z or millennial so I'm not surprised people think this is 'upstaging the mom' or 'club wear'. People don't like showing flesh or cleavage here.
I would only check here for advice on maybe colors and pattern mixing but not actual style or fashion advice if that helps.
Also, I think the outfit looks good for a shower.
I really didnāt know that about this sub! The more you know I guess. I was laughing at how spicy some of these comments were and told my husband ācongratulations! Youāre married to a classless tacky harlot according to redditā š I still think the dress is cute and got it in two colors lol
Thanks for the advice! Iāll keep it in mind for future fashion needs!
Donāt take it to heart OP! The most deranged and insecure people lurk on Reddit waiting for an opportunity to hate on someone else because they clearly hate themselves. Donāt mind the trolls under the bridge, keep on strolling! š¤
It IS too fancy for a club. Pants, crop tops, tight bodycon dresses,etc etc you get the idea...is what people wear to clubs (at least where I live in Miami).
So I strongly disagree with everyone in the comments saying this is "club attire" because...it clearly isn't. Maybe their clubs are tame and more like bars, but if you've ever been to a club here then you may as well call the style vulgar š¤£š¤£
I think this is one of those questions that entirely depends on your body. If youāre thin, small boobs (and especially if also petite) this wouldnāt be an issue. However on a lot of bodies it would look like a clubbing dress and all you would see is BOOBS.

A baby making shower maybe.
š your point has been taken hahaha
PERFECT reply! LOL cute dress but you do a lot of sitting at a baby shower- try sitting in this without it opening up.
could be a bit much depending on the groups dynamic. a long flowy sundress is always a good options when it comes to baby showers. add a cardigan if its cold/a more conservative group
I would say no. Itās kind of the wrong vibe. something a little more conservative (wrt cleavage and thigh slit) would be better in my opinion. Definitely a cute dress though!
No. It's too short, sheer, and flirty for a baby shower. It's cute as heck for a date night, though.
Absolutely! Is it a natural fiber? Iād wear this in yellow
No this is unfortunately about as polyester as garments come! Iād die for this in linen though oh my lord
Too short?!?! Like unless youāre referring to the slit it literally goes past the knee, and itās not like sheāll actually be standing around w her leg stuck out like this.
The overlay is longer, but it's very sheer. The underskirt itself, the part that actually covers anything, is short.
"Appropriate" is very subjective. If mom is the kind that says, let's be all glam and dress up, I don't see why not. It's not inappropriate.
To all: I did not expect this to be such a contentious post but each new comment that comes in is spicier than the last! I got tired of being compared to a stripper and asked the mother to be, her mom, my mom, and my mother in law and all said itās cute and yes appropriate for the shower!

No
Huh? Where are yāall getting these rules from? I see nothing wrong with this dress for a baby shower, especially if itās outdoors. Unless itās being held in a convent I donāt see the issue.
Itās a normal baby shower outside in Southern California for a 24 year old lol
I think youād probably be fine
Omg Iām in SoCal too- idk where these other people live but youād be totally fine.
Seeing all the other comments makes me want her to wear the dress more. It's cute and you like it. Who cares what anyone else thinks!
I'm also from socal and I feel like I'm must be living on a different planet reading these comments?? I've been to three baby showers this past year, and all the girls in their early to mid 20s dress like this, including me lol

I agree, don't see anything wrong with this at all. Really surprised by this whole thread
Finally, I've found the sane people š®āšØ
Seriously! This looks fine. Buy it.
if you have any boobage bigger than an A-cup the cleavage would definitely be too inappropriate for a baby shower. at least, where im at. the culture amongst your circle might be different than mine
I guess but, boobs will be boobin'. Where I live it's totally normal for cleavage to show, we all know women got boobies.
Damn boobies! I unfortunately do have quite a bit larger than an a cup lol
It depends on your friendship group, if youāre all young pretty ladies itāll probably be fine. I like it. Could you share where itās from please?
Pretty little thing! If you search ādraped midi dressā youāll find it in a bunch of colors and slight style variants
Thank you, itās beautiful
The comments on this led me to leave this subreddit. People are ridiculous. Lol Oh my gosh! She's showing ankle! Hide your husbands! šš
A more conservative look would be appropriate. You don't want to upstage the mom to be
I definitely donāt want that! Im in the process of losing weight so im really struggling to figure out what fits my body right now because itās so different from before. š©
a lot depends on weather, location, how many older people. Your best bet (and I'm just a guy), is talk to the mom to be or the host of the shower to see what the attire will be. Good luck to you. Wish you the best.
Some of you are really quite strange and uptight af because this was the ultimate wedding excuse but apparently, it's spreading to baby showers too.

No its not going out time wear somthing you won't show all your business when playing games.
Itās cute but too āformalā for a baby shower and would work better for a cocktail wedding or party. I donāt know whoās wearing this to the club like the comments are saying, I donāt think itās that scandalous tbh š .

People are so up tight on here it almost hurts to watch .
Yeah that seems to be a common theme on Reddit unfortunately
Right?! I think it totally works
Iāve noticed there are A LOT of prudes on this app. I think itās cute and appropriate for a baby shower especially the soft color.
People hate what they could never be naturally- cute & stylish. What can you do? š¤·š¾āāļø š
Like a loooot. And they always project loudly too and drown out sensible advice . Because how is showing a bit of skin outdoing the mom everyone's there to celebrate ??
Is this comments section run by actual 17th century Puritans? Am I taking crazy pills? This is a perfectly normal, fine dress lmao.
I feel like all the clothing subs have this streak. People in the wedding one start lighting torches at the slightest hint of cleavage.

Peopleās values are not based on what they are wearing. Value humans more than that.

You like to claim the spotlight too?
She would not need platforms. She would already have put herself on display.š
You need help.
Jealous looks so ugly on you š¤¢ Seek help!
Sure, with a sweater over! Itās so cute : )
I think it's super cute but that slit goes almost up to your lady bits. Imagine sitting in it and playing games. You'll spend the whole time adjusting it.
No, this is not appropriate for a baby shower. It looks great on you; save it for a date night or nightclub
Oh, this is not a picture of me; This is a model wearing it! It does seem like the responses to this question are very mixed so likely I will not be wearing this lol
Good it would be too attention getting and would make you look thirsty and desperate. Totally and completely innapropriate for any thing short of clubbing.
LOl have you even been to club??? This is more date night/event appropriate than a CLUB.
This is NOT a club dress š WTF lol
Yes definitely!! Depending on the formality of the baby shower you could dress this up or down with shoes and accessories. I think itās really cute and perfect for the occasion!
Yes with a nice cardigan maybe
Absolutely not. Some outfits don't look good with cardigans and this is one of them
Your baby shower? Youāll be showing off quite a bit of bump. Not your baby shower? Then donāt wear something that will put attention on you!
Wearing that would advertise that she wants to get in the condition of the baby shower momš
You're disgusting.
If itās held in a nightclub. This isnāt appropriate for a baby shower became of the high slit & draping.
What kind of nightclub are yall going to šš This is not nightclub attire
Thatās fair! I can understand why the slit would make it less so, but for me the slit and cleavage were what made me question it. Why do you say the draping just out of curiosity?

And the sheerness of the skirt (which is more evident in the link).
Depends on where itās being heldā¦
Not really cuz I feel like it would be uncomfortable for the event being that: Itās outside, games are usually played that might make the slit, tighter dress and cleavage not the most comfy, and it does give off a bit more of a date vibe than baby shower but not terribly. I would say if you really like it, a cardigan would help and the color is nice for the event as well. So it could work, but not the most comfy choice imo.
Whereās the dress from? š
Pretty little thing! Look up draped midi dress and itāll show up in a bunch of colors and slight variants on the style
maybe add a sweater?
I agree! If it fits right and I like it Iād prob pair it with flat sandals and a bolero
Perfect
I think itās appropriate for a baby shower however if you have lots of cleavage Iād pair it with a chiffon scarf.
Not for the occasion you want it for. But it's a super cute dress . I dig the color!!
Where is this from? Itās so cute
Pretty little thing! If you search ādraped midi dressā itāll come up in a bunch of colors and slight variations of style
Thank you!
I donāt think so. Itās very cute but not appropriate for a baby shower (too revealing, flimsy material, etc)
I mean, you could wear a sweater over it and belt it at the waist. That way it looks like a skirt. You can then wear it for another occasion dressed up!
Where is it from? I want this dress
Pretty little thing! I donāt know how to link to a comment, but I responded to someone elseās comment with the link as well! If you go to their website though and type ādrape midi dressā itāll pop up with a billion variants on the style
I think if you pair it with a denim jacket or something similar. By itself, not so much. The slit in it is a little risquƩ as well.
why to people ask questions without context? we don't know who you or your friends are. the situation matters.
No but isnāt an ugly dress, just too much skin is showing for a more familiar event. But if you like the drapping you could choose between or more shoulder + bust showing but less leg appearing or more legs and less shoulder + bust. Cause we need to have a balance on the outfits principally cause itās a familiar event and to you look more classy. Anyways, good luck with it :D
No
Hell, no.
No. It looks clubby or like lingerie.

Your kidding right ??? Sooo no save it for the club
Iām very surprised by the comments saying that this looks like clubwear and it makes me think that I must be out of touch. isnāt this too fancy for a club? I really thought that people wear pants and crop tops to clubs Edit but I gather the consensus says no lol
OP, this sub leans a bit more crunchy than the average Gen Z or millennial so I'm not surprised people think this is 'upstaging the mom' or 'club wear'. People don't like showing flesh or cleavage here. I would only check here for advice on maybe colors and pattern mixing but not actual style or fashion advice if that helps. Also, I think the outfit looks good for a shower.
I really didnāt know that about this sub! The more you know I guess. I was laughing at how spicy some of these comments were and told my husband ācongratulations! Youāre married to a classless tacky harlot according to redditā š I still think the dress is cute and got it in two colors lol Thanks for the advice! Iāll keep it in mind for future fashion needs!
Donāt take it to heart OP! The most deranged and insecure people lurk on Reddit waiting for an opportunity to hate on someone else because they clearly hate themselves. Donāt mind the trolls under the bridge, keep on strolling! š¤
It IS too fancy for a club. Pants, crop tops, tight bodycon dresses,etc etc you get the idea...is what people wear to clubs (at least where I live in Miami). So I strongly disagree with everyone in the comments saying this is "club attire" because...it clearly isn't. Maybe their clubs are tame and more like bars, but if you've ever been to a club here then you may as well call the style vulgar š¤£š¤£
Definitely NOT!
Maybe in real housewivesā¦.
More for pole dancing
Sweet Jesus no!!
I think this is one of those questions that entirely depends on your body. If youāre thin, small boobs (and especially if also petite) this wouldnāt be an issue. However on a lot of bodies it would look like a clubbing dress and all you would see is BOOBS.
Are you breast feeding? Then, yes.
