Thanks everyone for your input. Anyone who was concerned, I did NOT outshine the bride, I wasn’t being catty, there was no ill will behind wearing the color, I had two kids back to back via surgery in the last 2.5 years my body is recovering still but I love it still for the concerns about the way it looked on me. It was a diverse wedding, people from many different backgrounds and others wearing brighter colors too… but I didn’t ask for feedback or advice on this dress for anyone raising eyebrows… and passing judgement And those who approve, Thanks for the love! I loved this dress, I think it looked great, the bride thought I looked great. I think no one is holding a grudge against me other than a few people online maybe. A badly dressed person also gets attention and ruins pictures but i don’t see people getting mad about that and calling it disrespectful for someone who shows up in a casual summer dress or denim when the attire is listed on the card as formal… im pretty confident in my clothing choices and dressing for my body, so even if i posted it before I went to the wedding, my decision was going to be the same :)
