this dress for a wedding?

FashionPrincess · Hermes

LOVE the color! And I don't think it looks like underwear.

Kelly · Hermes

I do love the color, but I'm not a huge fan of the dress itself.

LoMish · Kate Spade

I like the color too, a lot actually!!

However, the silver stripe looks a little off with the black trim and lacey part up top.

Ditto!

I love it. I think it will be so unique, it almost has a vintage appeal to it.

I agree.

Lilykind · Hermes

I'd prefer the silver band to be black...as it, the does doesn't wow me, although the color is beautiful and it definitely doesn't look like lingerie.

Metric · Gucci

Something about the black/blue/silver combo throws me off too.

IMO, if you want a dress to wear to mulitple functions i think it would be better to go with a simplier dress that you could change accessories on. Wearing a unique-looking dress too many times in a row might get boring.

That's my feeling too.

You could add a black belt or sash to the dress to make it different, and cover the silver.

That's a good idea. Maybe I'll order it and try that out.

I've been looking a lot and maybe it's still too early, but I haven't been totally wowed by anything out there yet. I did love one dress in red (which I posted about separately) but it was sold out in my size.
