Red dress


Question Posted Wednesday June 27 2007, 3:49 pm

Is it appropriate to wear a bright red dress
to a wedding?

The wedding is a formal evening wedding. The
dress is a simple sleeveless dress. It has a
scoop neckline and shows just a little, but
not a lot of cleavage. I would wear it to other
formal events, just not sure if its appropriate
for a wedding.

I think it'd be fine, even if it's a bright red dress. The color might be a little bright but I've been to a ton of weddings trust me and a lot of people wore red. The neckline and all sounds fine, not skimpy so I don't think it'd be too bad.

If you don't think it'd be okay try getting a little black dress. A black dress would be perfect for a wedding also. I'm suggesting this if you don't feel comfortable about wearing the red dress still. You can never go wrong with a little black dress.

I hope this helps you tons. :)

I don't think it is appropriate to wear
anything to a wedding that takes attention
away from the bride. Bright red might
do that.

Sounds like a sexy little dress maybe
best saved for another occasion. If you
have something else to wear, or can afford
to buy something else, I wouldn't wear it. :)

It sounds perfectly fine to me. As long as you don't wear white. You might wnat to doublcheck with the bride just in case, but I think you should wear it.

I think the dress sounds appropriate (and very nice), but you might want to consider asking the bride if the dress is OK with her. I once went to a wedding described to me (not by the bride) as "extremely casual," so I dressed extremely casual and when I got there no one else was dressed casual at all. That was very embarrassing. So now whenever I go to a wedding, I always get what I plan to wear OK'd by the bride first. She'll be very happy that you did, because most brides like to control everything about their wedding day.

Red is a bright, celebratory color and is entirely appropriate for a wedding. The one color you don't want to wear to a wedding is white, as that is viewed as an attempt to upstage the bride.

Everyone doesn't have to wear bright colors.
