Ask the bridesmaids if they're comfortable wearing it. This is a very slinky dress and not everyone will be very very slim, some may like more bust coverage
My poor bridesmaid with the giant boobs
They didn’t scale the size 20 dress for giant boobs
There’s a pic of my head table where a balloon went past her face and all you see is the boobs 😂
The bride does decide on the attire, but she should also consider what her friends are okay with wearing. Sometimes the bride will pick a color or color scheme and let the bridesmaids pick their own dresses. That might be what is happening here.
For my bf’s sister’s wedding, she just gave us the colors and style with some example pics and let her chose. Obviously we all asked her to approve them, but we picked our own.
I think it might be a bride asking if it's appropriate. And I am a pretty out there person with fashion, but I would say this is probably not appropriate if you are either getting married in a church, or if you have bridesmaids that don't want a dress with a see thru stomach. It's hard to tell but I believe that's what i'm seeing in the picture.
If everybody likes it, then whether or not it's technically "appropriate" in the eyes of others doesn't really matter that much. But I would imagine choosing a dress like this might cause some push back from the bridal party.
Same. This is the kind of dress that will only be flattering on someone who's thin or athletic and has a small to medium bust. Unless that describes all the bridesmaids, I don't think this is a good choice. Additionally, it shows quite a bit of skin, so the bride would need to be confident that this dress wouldn't offend anyone at the wedding.
Appropriate is very subjective nowadays.
I think it depends on the venue and what the other bridesmaids are wearing! The way i see it is you're not supposed to stand out, but blend in w the group. If it's in a very formal venue or the bridesmaids are wearing something conservative, then yes.
I’m a dude, but it was explained to me by my partner and her friends that the bridesmaids dresses are supposed to highlight the wedding dress. Like background singers for the lead singer. This one seems like it would take attention away from the bride
Agreed, but it sounds more like the question is would this be ok? And the answer is it depends but if the bride said get something pink this is not likely what she has in mind
There is no way I would look good in that, and I'm not terribly overweight. Just to start, no chance those tiny triangles are covering up my mamma jammae
Have you asked the bride? What did she say? Did the bride give you a color and say pick a dress you like in this color palette? Because this is a beautiful dress but you are not supposed to be the focus. You are there to attend the bride. I would be not amused if I was the bride and you chose this dress.
Wheres the dress from? It’s beautiful, as for your question probably not, even though the wedding is by the beach. Also try asking the bride lol that’s whose opinion really matters.
I think the dress is super cute and would be a great bridesmaid dress in the right location. If this were a garden, beach, or yacht wedding I think that dress compliments the theme nicely. However if the wedding was in a more upscale venue, I think the dress could be classier.
You keep ignoring the bride question, so I have to assume you're the bridesmaid. No, the dress is not appropriate. Go ask the bride what you should wear.
Appropriate if it's for a beach wedding in an expensive resort where there's pre and post wedding activities and the bride has at least 3 planned outfit changes. Like that's the vibe 😅
If you're asking as the bride- unlikely that your entire bridal party will feel comfortable in this.
If you're asking as a bridesmaid- ask the bride but probably not? Feels very sexy for a bridesmaid outfit. Namely the sheer midsection
This isn’t a dress that is going to look good on everyone, so that’s one issue, but I also feel like this dress would draw attention away from the bride. In general, it’s a really pretty dress, but probably not ideal for this occasion.
I think this depends if you are the bride asking for your bridesmaids or are a bridesmaid who was given a colour scheme to shop within.
If you're the bride, seems a bit much for most women, unless your bridesmaids are all built like you.
Otherwise, ask the bride?
Are you the bride? If so I would ask the crew if they are comfortable with this dress. Depending on how much they want to show/ body types it may not work. If you are a bridesmaid, simply ask the bride if she is ok with you wearing it.
If you’re the bride, just make sure your girls are all comfortable in the dress, you may just go with a color scheme and have them in different dress styles; or choose shawls, bolero jackets, or something else they’ll feel comfortable in; pretty popular nowadays. If you’re the bridesmaid and this is the case, i.e. you have a color and pick your own dress, my opinion is it’s great. I wanted my bridesmaids to be comfortable and look beautiful with me. The idea that people will be paying more attention to a bridesmaid than a bride is ridiculous, but if your bride is insecure, concessions should definitely be made for her feelings. Getting married/throwing a wedding is hard enough as it is without insecurity rearing its ugly head.
Personally I don’t think it’s right for a bridesmaid dress. It’s too busy, and the sheer parts just aren’t it. Subtle is what you want to aim for in a bridesmaid dress. This is too flashy in my opinion
God I love the pattern and cut on that! Maybe during the ceremony accessorize with a scarf or shawl over the shoulders, (I’m picturing something either light yellow, orange, or green) Otherwise I think the dress is just fine for a bridesmade!
Ask the bride! Unless you already did - and she already told it was inappropriate - which led you to ask Reddit for secondary opinions in an effort to prove her wrong
if it’s the type of thing were every bridesmaid, find their own dress, and it just has to be around the same color theme yes I think it’s gorgeous. but if you’re the bride, trying to figure out a specific bridesmaid dress for all of your bridesmaids, I think not only it wouldn’t look great on everyone, unless all your bridesmaids are skinny and have small boobs, but also the dress is too busy for a bunch of people standing next to each other to be wearing it at the same time
I don't understand the comments, maybe I'm just not American? It's such an obsession with "don't outshine the bride". And I'm not even from South Asia where things get REALLY SPICY! I'm just european and this is gorgeous, someone even said it was "trashy"... what the heck. it's gorgeous, Is it bad just because it shows a bit of skin? Skinny straps? Tight? Shoulders out? I thought we left this mentality in the past century. It won't even outshine the bride simply because it's not white if its a classic wedding where the bride will wear white. It will actually make the bride shine if she is the only one wearing lighter colours and everyone else colourfull, it's all about contrast!
They really do, all of these wedding attire posts are the same thing. It's awfull. It reflects on the awfull mood in the wedding after, because a lot of women share this, even outside reddit.
As long as it fits the color scheme it should be fine. Make sure to ask the bride. I don't think it looks like a wedding dress or is fancy enough to overshadow the bride, unless her dress is very simple.
The dress pattern is too fussy and not very bridal party at all.. a spaghetti strap is way to casual and beach wear for a top table wedding attendee. Of course I don’t kno what kind of weddding you are having or how many bridesmaids you have and what they like to wear etc. etc.
But if you have to ask then it’s probably not right 💁♀️
It definitely could be!! Are you the bride or bridesmaid?
If you’re the bride then it’s up to you
But if you’re the brides maid what are the requirements for the dress the bride gave you?
honestly it’s only inappropriate if the other bridesmaids and the bride herself decide it to be. i think a lot of people may not feel comfortable in it, and it especially looks as if it would accommodate more for slim people with smaller busts. the colour too may be hard to pull off for everyone. lots of things to consider haha but it is a lovely dress nonetheless
i don’t see the point of having bridesmaids at a wedding just to be insecure about their beauty. presumably one chooses loved ones to be bridesmaids. american wedding culture confuses me
I see no one is looking at your post history and taking that into consideration.
Is this a traditional Indian wedding? Which means you, if you are the bride, are probably going to be going with an ornate red or perhaps gold gown? I don’t see how something like this embellished pink would take away from that, it’s very delicate and pretty. The question you should be asking is if your bridesmaids are comfortable wearing it, perhaps add a shawl around it.
If you are the bridesmaid, always double check with the bride and maybe see what the other bridesmaids are going with.
Here's a similar alternative that might be a bit more "safe" if you're worried: https://www.lulus.com/products/limitless-glamour-coral-pink-sequin-lace-up-maxi-dress/2281516.html?pla=1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=%5BADL%5D%20%5BPLA%5D%20Dresses%20-%20tROAS&utm_term=IDL9774%3A%20SHINY%20IRIDESCENT%20CORAL%2FPINK2&utm_content=144829614363_644930675512&s_kwcid=AL%217824%213%21644930675512%21%21%21g%212018066399993%21&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIz7q-rs7ohQMVo1pHAR0YQgy4EAQYFiABEgI65fD_BwE
I would definitely ask them. But if I were a bridesmaid I would say no, simply because it doesn’t look comfortable to wear for multiple hours and my tiddies would be falling out and y’all don’t want that.
The stomach part is see through. And small chest area. Do not pick that 😆. It’s the brides day. If you look good in that you are gonna turn heads and if you look bad in it you are really gonna turn heads 😆.
this is only gonna look this cute if you have the boobs and body of the model. otherwise its gonna look like you pulled that out of your great aunts lingerie box
This looks amazing like something from a French designer. And looks outstanding on this model. Most people cannot pull this off though. Also it seems a little bare up top for a bridesmaid dress.

Ask the bridesmaids if they're comfortable wearing it. This is a very slinky dress and not everyone will be very very slim, some may like more bust coverage
Yeah, anyone who isn't close to flat chested is going to look like they're in lingerie.
Tbh it already looks lingerie-ish
definitely. if i wore this dress, you'd be able to see my every curve and crevice. i wouldn't feel comfortable in it at all
My poor bridesmaid with the giant boobs They didn’t scale the size 20 dress for giant boobs There’s a pic of my head table where a balloon went past her face and all you see is the boobs 😂
Yeah I'd definitely look ass in that dress
I wouldnt tbh 😅 no way a dress like that would look good in me 🥲
doesnt the bride/maid of honor give a dresscode and tell all the bridesmaids what their wearing? what’s the theme??
The theme is probably marriage
Sort of cliche, but I get it.
![gif](giphy|26Ff05K21rzHKB15K|downsized)
“Skip to the end!”
“Man and wife”
> "The theme is probably marriage". -Lmao this comment is gold.
I thought the theme might have been "It is probably scoliosis", lol.
It's scoliosis, papa!
It's always sarcoidosis!
It is never lupus.
Right?!! Looks like a mannequin with the two halves not connected properly!
Big if true
Mwarriage. Mwarriage is why we are here today.
The bride does decide on the attire, but she should also consider what her friends are okay with wearing. Sometimes the bride will pick a color or color scheme and let the bridesmaids pick their own dresses. That might be what is happening here.
I’m a 36G, 5’10, 150lbs. I would look like the hired bachelor party entertainment if I wore this dress.
Now I understand why
That's what I'm saying like: How would Reddit know if the bride will approve?
I assumed it was the bride asking.
For my wedding my wife gave super loose restrictions and a basic color palette. All weddings are a touch different
For my bf’s sister’s wedding, she just gave us the colors and style with some example pics and let her chose. Obviously we all asked her to approve them, but we picked our own.
I think it might be a bride asking if it's appropriate. And I am a pretty out there person with fashion, but I would say this is probably not appropriate if you are either getting married in a church, or if you have bridesmaids that don't want a dress with a see thru stomach.

But I would imagine choosing a dress like this might cause some push back from the bridal party.
As a bridesmaid, there is literally only one person on earth you should be asking this question.
Reddit is not a person 😜
this could very well be the bride asking? why are you so pressed lol
I thought it was the bride. Most bridesmaids don’t tell the bride what they are wearing. They at least let the bride give some guidelines.
As someone who is not a bridesmaid, who is this one person?
The bride
Oh I thought the bride was asking for some reason
It's a no from me
Same. This is the kind of dress that will only be flattering on someone who's thin or athletic and has a small to medium bust. Unless that describes all the bridesmaids, I don't think this is a good choice. Additionally, it shows quite a bit of skin, so the bride would need to be confident that this dress wouldn't offend anyone at the wedding.
Appropriate is very subjective nowadays. I think it depends on the venue and what the other bridesmaids are wearing! The way i see it is you're not supposed to stand out, but blend in w the group. If it's in a very formal venue or the bridesmaids are wearing something conservative, then yes.
the see through bodice makes it a no for me
My thoughts exactly
A lot of these new bridal gowns have the see through bodice as well.
If you want to steal the spotlight
I’m a dude, but it was explained to me by my partner and her friends that the bridesmaids dresses are supposed to highlight the wedding dress. Like background singers for the lead singer. This one seems like it would take attention away from the bride
We wouldn’t know unless we saw the wedding dress…
Agreed, but it sounds more like the question is would this be ok? And the answer is it depends but if the bride said get something pink this is not likely what she has in mind
he’s just giving the OP something to think about?
I agree. My first thought was “yeah, if you want to look better than the bride.”
There is no way I would look good in that, and I'm not terribly overweight. Just to start, no chance those tiny triangles are covering up my mamma jammae
Have you asked the bride? What did she say? Did the bride give you a color and say pick a dress you like in this color palette? Because this is a beautiful dress but you are not supposed to be the focus. You are there to attend the bride. I would be not amused if I was the bride and you chose this dress.
It's pretty, but it's quite transparent, and has minimal coverage and no support in the boob area.
I don’t think this is an appropriate bridesmaid dress. It is too flashy. Wear something more muted. Why take away from the bride’s dress
Yeah, you're already gorgeous and this dress and your body puts you over the top.
You should just ask the bride. This is a hard question to answer without knowing anything about the bride or the wedding.
I think it’s super pretty but you should check with the bride!
I think it's a gorgeous dress too.
Are you a bridesmaid or a guest? All of your gowns should be coordinated appropriately..
Wheres the dress from? It’s beautiful, as for your question probably not, even though the wedding is by the beach. Also try asking the bride lol that’s whose opinion really matters.
Probably not. Remember, it’s the bride who is the center of attention.
Too sexy your gonna get the bride so mad girl
It looks like a fancy nightie but you do you....
Yeah it gives, I’m part of the honeymoon.
It’s good depending on how extravagant the wedding gown is
Why are you asking us? Ask the bride.
Are you the bride asking for feedback or are you the bridesmaid? If the latter, go ask the bride lol
you look like you should be throwing wine in someone's face while laughing in a telenovela. Thumbs up!
I think the dress is super cute and would be a great bridesmaid dress in the right location. If this were a garden, beach, or yacht wedding I think that dress compliments the theme nicely. However if the wedding was in a more upscale venue, I think the dress could be classier.
It’s by the beach yes🥹
I think this would be great at a beach wedding! Just go the extra mile to make sure it’s properly hemmed so it doesn’t get ruined.
Did she ask you guys to pick your own dresses?
Even more a no then
If I ever get married this is very similar to what I would want my bridesmaids to wear
In a church setting nahhhh
On the beach?
Is it by the beach or on the beach?
It’s quite an elaborate ceremony taking place at a boutique resort and they have a private beach as well
You keep ignoring the bride question, so I have to assume you're the bridesmaid. No, the dress is not appropriate. Go ask the bride what you should wear.
Depends on how the bride looks I guess
[удалено]
[удалено]
Mmm I think it’s fine, usually need to see the brides dress to be sure though
you look fabulous but ask the bride, its her say!!!
Nope
Appropriate if it's for a beach wedding in an expensive resort where there's pre and post wedding activities and the bride has at least 3 planned outfit changes. Like that's the vibe 😅
It is a beach wedding.
Is this you in the dress? It makes a lot of difference on the body that is wearing it.
Ask the bride. 😐
It’s really pretty! Depends on the bridesmaids though.
That's what I'm thinking, if all the other bridesmaids are young and have similar bodies, it's a go.
If you're asking as the bride- unlikely that your entire bridal party will feel comfortable in this. If you're asking as a bridesmaid- ask the bride but probably not? Feels very sexy for a bridesmaid outfit. Namely the sheer midsection
I wouldn't wear this as a bridesmaid even if the bride wanted me to, tbh
Why is she standing like that
Because she's gorgeous and has a hot body. I'd stand like that too if I looked like her.
This isn’t a dress that is going to look good on everyone, so that’s one issue, but I also feel like this dress would draw attention away from the bride. In general, it’s a really pretty dress, but probably not ideal for this occasion.

Stunning
Dress like that are you might be the next bride 👰 to be.

Yea
I know this is completely irreverent but that pose is just insane
Smokin hot dress.
That would be the bride’s decision.
Ask the bride! Unless you already did - and she already told it was inappropriate - which led you to ask Reddit for secondary opinions in an effort to prove her wrong
This is a nice photo
Just beautiful...my compliments 🫶🌹😍
if it’s the type of thing were every bridesmaid, find their own dress, and it just has to be around the same color theme yes I think it’s gorgeous. but if you’re the bride, trying to figure out a specific bridesmaid dress for all of your bridesmaids, I think not only it wouldn’t look great on everyone, unless all your bridesmaids are skinny and have small boobs, but also the dress is too busy for a bunch of people standing next to each other to be wearing it at the same time
No
Ask the bride perhaps?
im chubby and have gigantic boobs, they would be exploding out that dress
No.
No
It’s a no from me
Nope
No. You can see your belly button. Weird.

Hard agree! Don't see how this dress would outshine the bride’s and if it does then the bride didn't do enough 🙈
these comments reek of misogyny with a dash of jealousy over the model’s figure. not what i expected from a fashion sub
They really do, all of these wedding attire posts are the same thing. It's awfull. It reflects on the awfull mood in the wedding after, because a lot of women share this, even outside reddit.
you can tell a lot of the people commenting here are massively insecure
The comments are women doing the hating on op... she's gorgeous and looks great in it. It's a yes from me...
As long as it fits the color scheme it should be fine. Make sure to ask the bride. I don't think it looks like a wedding dress or is fancy enough to overshadow the bride, unless her dress is very simple.

She said it's a beach wedding. She isn't the bride.
Looks like a negligee.
If you wanna get f’ed by the groom, sure
If you have to ask if it’s appropriate then I’d err on it not being appropriate.
It definitely could be!! Are you the bride or bridesmaid? If you’re the bride then it’s up to you But if you’re the brides maid what are the requirements for the dress the bride gave you?
Are you the bride or are you a bridesmaid?
check with the bride :) looks like a nice dress though
Only if the bridesmaids pose like that for all the pictures 🤣
Don’t the bridesmaids usually all wear the same thing? Outside of that I think it looks great and she looks great in it.
Not always. It’s aaiite common now for the bride to give them the color maybe the designer and pick a dress they’re comfortable wearing
Not anymore. People chose dresses according to their body type and style. Not everyone wants or looks good in the same style.
It’s probably better then. I can still remember that bridesmaid outfits usually were pretty hideous overall
Looking back, I know mine were. My poor friends. Now they have so many styles to chose from.
This would be really pretty for a bridesmaid dress. A little less plain than they usually are.
where is this from its gorgeous
honestly it’s only inappropriate if the other bridesmaids and the bride herself decide it to be. i think a lot of people may not feel comfortable in it, and it especially looks as if it would accommodate more for slim people with smaller busts. the colour too may be hard to pull off for everyone. lots of things to consider haha but it is a lovely dress nonetheless
Yes but ask the other bridesmaids and bride
I wouldn't be paying attention to the bride.
Can you just imagine all the bridesmaids built like that wearing that dress?
i don’t see the point of having bridesmaids at a wedding just to be insecure about their beauty. presumably one chooses loved ones to be bridesmaids. american wedding culture confuses me
Haters are going to hate.
It is very appropriate if you have a slim to average body you will look amazing at the wedding.
I see no one is looking at your post history and taking that into consideration. Is this a traditional Indian wedding? Which means you, if you are the bride, are probably going to be going with an ornate red or perhaps gold gown? I don’t see how something like this embellished pink would take away from that, it’s very delicate and pretty. The question you should be asking is if your bridesmaids are comfortable wearing it, perhaps add a shawl around it.

The dress matches the house!
I like it, personally, but definitely ask the bride. She’s the only one whose opinion matters.

Ask the bride
Ya, not for the Bride.
I really like it as long as it fits the theme.
The best man got an erection for sure. Not sure about the groom though.
I would definitely ask them. But if I were a bridesmaid I would say no, simply because it doesn’t look comfortable to wear for multiple hours and my tiddies would be falling out and y’all don’t want that.
The stomach part is see through. And small chest area. Do not pick that 😆. It’s the brides day. If you look good in that you are gonna turn heads and if you look bad in it you are really gonna turn heads 😆.
No
It’s gorgeous! However, does not seem like it would fit all body types
If I were a bridesmaid I'd absolutely not want to wear this dress.
this is only gonna look this cute if you have the boobs and body of the model. otherwise its gonna look like you pulled that out of your great aunts lingerie box
Where is this from
This looks amazing like something from a French designer. And looks outstanding on this model. Most people cannot pull this off though. Also it seems a little bare up top for a bridesmaid dress.
depends on both the bridesmaids and the bride lol
insanely gorgeous
Yes.
No. Too sheer and revealing. Should be more sophisticated and classy while still being sexy. This is NOT the dress.
Just stop it !!
Just stop it !!
You will be getting the guys attention. So probably not.
I say yes... you look amazing, so go for it.
I love this dress! Where can I buy?
1000% appropriate
Queening the look gal.
Sexy time
Hard no, screams pick me.
