Next to the get it of the blue, floral gown, which has a bow detail at the front, the woman titled her post “Inappropriate for a wedding?”
The brunette beauty paired her dress with a pair of strappy heels, showing off her long legs and large breasts.
She then wrote: “So I got this new dress and wanted to wear it to a wedding.
“But a few people told me my cleavage was too revealing.”
Confused by the negative comments about her beautiful, flowy dress, the curly-haired girl asked, “What do you think?”
Reddit users flocked to the comments to share their thoughts on the dress, with many left completely stunned by the frock.
Not only did people think it was ‘too short’, but others were concerned that the woman in the short dress would take too much attention away from the bride and groom.
One person said: “Too short and too boobalicious.”
Way too revealing and in the worst taste for a wedding

Another added: “It’s not about you. It is the day of the bride and groom. Period.”
A third commented: “There’s too much to see on someone else’s big day. Great if you go to the beach.”
Do’s and don’ts of wedding dress codes
By Josie Griffiths, fantastic deputy editor and bride-to-be.
Josie Griffiths said: I’ll never forget the wedding I went to in October 2022 where one guest wore a white dress.
It was ill-fitting, knee-length and looked nothing like a real wedding dress, but that didn’t stop everyone from judging her.
The rules for wedding guest outfits – which are annoyingly stricter for women than for men – are designed to “not put the bride front and centre”, which is actually quite difficult to do on someone else’s wedding day.
But if you get it wrong as a guest, you end up looking a little weird to a lot of people who don’t know you personally.
It’s just not the occasion for your new white dress, no matter how much online stores like to dump them in the ‘wedding guests’ section.
I would avoid anything too tight/short, and stay away from super formal dresses unless the dress code calls for it – you don’t want to be in a long sequin dress at a smart casual event.
Personally I don’t like black dresses either, it’s not a funeral.
Otherwise you should be pretty safe. Technically, wearing red means you’re in love with the groom, but that’s the kind of rule most people would scoff at these days.
Just to be safe, I always check what color the bridesmaids are after the Spanish wedding where I saw them walking down the aisle in the exact same dress I had in my Asos shopping cart a few weeks earlier.
If you’re unsure, it’s best to check with the bride… but if you’re already unsure about your dress, that might be the answer you need.
While someone else wrote: “I’m shocked you have to ask, it’s too low cut and too short.”
At the same time, a user snapped: “Definitely looks like an outfit I saw an ex-girlfriend of the groom wear to a wedding to show what he’s going to miss.”
Not only this, but another user simply wrote: “Attention seeking.”
As if that wasn’t bad enough, one shocked person wrote: “Far too revealing and in the worst taste for a wedding. The fabric looks cheap.
“Overall, it would be more attractive and sexy if you didn’t put everything on display.”
