A BRIDE is debating over whether her wedding dress is too revealing as it has a low neckline – and people have agreed branding the gown “inappropriate”.
Choosing a dress to get married in is one of the hardest decisions to make, and one of the most expensive parts of a wedding.
After possibly finding her dream dress, one bride-to-be was unsure as to whether it was too tacky as it had a “revealing” neckline.
Sharing an image of herself in the dress to WeddingBee, she wrote: “I’m deciding between some bridal gowns for my beach wedding and I’m leaning towards this one.
“This question is about the cleavage aspect of the dress.
“I feel the neckline might be too revealing.
“Any ideas for alterations that won’t look tacky?”
Set to walk down the aisle in January 2022, she had chosen a Stella York dress, by Essence of Australia.
Described as a “modern meets sexy” gown, it’s made from: “Matte lace and silky crepe create a sheath silhouette with plunging V-neckline and naked illusion back.
“The sheer V-shaped bodice is created by matte lace with an organic finish that adds a botanical look to the lace.
“Floating straps meet in the back as the illusion lace forms a tattoo effect on the back.
“The lace continues down the hips, shaping the bride’s body into sexy curves.”
But the “simple yet sexy” wedding dress has been branded a little too sexy by some people.
Commenting on the post, fellow brides have called the frock “inappropriate”, comparing it to “lingerie”.
One woman said: “I will be honest and say I really wish the super plunging neckline trend would go away.
“I’m not a prude, and have no issue with it for a night at a gala or a club, but am traditional enough to feel it’s inappropriate at a family affair or a wedding ceremony.
“I feel the same way about sheer panels. That said, you have the figure for it.”
Someone else added: “The plunging neckline combined with the sheer lace bodice combined with the wide open back down to her butt adds up to lingerie to me, not a wedding dress.
“One of those elements might be ok, maybe, but all three combined make it too revealing.”
A third wrote: “In My Humble Opinion, the low cut does not make it too revealing.
The dress has divided opinion online
“The recent trend of see-through corsets make the top of the dress too revealing for my taste. But, of course, to each her own.”
Another person pointed out: “The fact that you mentioned it means that you are thinking its too much. Is there any way to modify it?
“You don’t want to think about your cleavage your entire wedding. You look killer!”
Somebody else thought: “It’s not obscenely revealing by any means, it’s just a little low.
“I think deep V neck is a trend at the moment. If you’re comfy wearing it, you look nice.
“My only concern is that the top and bottom has a clear distinction, maybe it could have been blended better with a lining on the top part.”
But not everyone thought flashed too much flesh, with this person saying: “Wow that dress looks like it was made for you. I don’t think it’s too revealing personally.
“Especially for a beach wedding.”
