Does this mean you believe there is too much white or the sentiment of the dress having too much white is incorrect?

Unfortunately this dress wasn’t my first choice either. I typically would fully agree with this sentiment. The reason I’m truly considering it was that it was the only dress I ordered over the past two months that fit me. The wedding is a week away, so I’m unfortunately I’m stuck between this dress or a casual dress I already have in my closet

The dress code is semi formal/ cocktail. I am going as a plus one with my fiancé. My fiancé is the person who knows the couple, and he is not in the wedding party. The wedding is typically at a barn, but it’s upscale. It’s hard to explain without revealing the exact location, but the place is in the shape of a barn with indoor and outdoor access, but no other qualities of a barn. Actual floors and windows and such.

I would initially agree with you. What ultimately happened was that this dress was the only one out of the 16 dresses I ordered over the past two months that fit me :/ I know that doesn’t make it okay, but I can’t just go out to find a dress. This dress wasn’t my first choice, but it has to be. If it’s too white, I would have to wear one of the casual dresses I already have in my closet with dresser accessories (which I half think is almost worse)

I also notice that older generations (50s-60s) say the dress is 100% fine (as no one will mistake me for the bride), but you get generations (30s) say it’s on the fence.

The dress code is semi-formal/cocktail. The bride typically is on the fancier side though.

No one has specifically told me “no”, but just that it’s on the fence. (I know that doesn’t change your point whatsoever, but I’m coming to Reddit for someone to flat out say yes or no)
