-- Posted by Rachel21 at 2:04 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 I'm well aware of the ridiculousness of this question, but I need some last minute help. Im going to a wedding tonight,and Im picking up a dress from Le Chateau in about an hour, but it's black and my mom's saying that black at a wedding is a really bad idea. This is the dress (it'll be in black) http://www.thestylespy.com/contentImages/LeChateauDress.jpg Is that an old fashioned rule, or should i stick with black? -- Posted by Frubeling at 2:05 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 If this is a wedding for dead people, stick with it -- Posted by randomrocks at 2:05 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 it's fine at my brothers wedding the brides maids wore black -- Posted by GoodFairy13 at 2:05 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Stick with black. :S -- Posted by surfergurl at 2:05 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 what is the color palet? black is a little bad, when everyone is brighter unless it's in the color plan -- Posted by SpasticTurnip at 2:06 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Quote: from Frubeling at 10:05 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 If this is a wedding for dead people, stick with it I agree, are you going as an emo? -- Posted by foambuddy at 2:06 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 I've worn black to few weddings my mom absolutely hates it! but ey it attracts a lot of people! stick with it!!!! -- Posted by style is war at 2:06 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Do wear black! just dont wear white -- Posted by HiggledyPiggledy at 2:06 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 I agree with your mum. Being older (but not necessarily old fash) she'd know the dress codes for a wedding shouldn't be black. Ask her for advice on alternative. -- Posted by angel1995 at 2:07 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 I like it stick with it -- Posted by maceyface at 2:08 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 black is always appropriate. if i were you, i'd wear a white (or light colored) cardigan with it and maybe a green or pink or white stone if you have one. -- Posted by Rachel21 at 2:10 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Quote: from maceyface at 2:08 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 black is always appropriate. if i were you, i'd wear a white (or light colored) cardigan with it and maybe a green or pink or white stone if you have one. I'm wearing red heels with it, does that work instead of a cardigan? hah -- Posted by maceyface at 2:14 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Quote: from Rachel21 at 2:10 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Quote: from maceyface at 2:08 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 black is always appropriate. if i were you, i'd wear a white (or light colored) cardigan with it and maybe a green or pink or white stone if you have one.   I'm wearing red heels with it, does that work instead of a cardigan? hah hmm, i'm all for red heels, but it might be a little out of place at a wedding. typically weddings are centered around pastels and mild, muted colors. but its up to you. you'll look cute, just be prepared to stand out. -- Posted by Rachel21 at 2:30 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Quote: from maceyface at 2:14 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Quote: from Rachel21 at 2:10 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 Quote: from maceyface at 2:08 pm on Jan. 3, 2009 black is always appropriate. if i were you, i'd wear a white (or light colored) cardigan with it and maybe a green or pink or white stone if you have one.      I'm wearing red heels with it, does that work instead of a cardigan? hah hmm, i'm all for red heels, but it might be a little out of place at a wedding. typically weddings are centered around pastels and mild, muted colors.   but its up to you. you'll look cute, just be prepared to stand out.
