A bride has been criticized for asking her bridesmaids to shell out $595 for an “unflattering” black dress.
The dress in question from luxury brand Ganni features adjustable satin laces, a high back and is made from a blend of polyester and spandex.
A bridesmaid was in a desperate situation because she didn’t have the money to pay for the dress and was hoping to buy a cheaper one.
At first glance, the long dress with double satin thread seems quite mediocre and the money spent could be used to buy something more elegant.
On Reddit, the bridesmaid wrote: “I was asked to be a bridesmaid this summer and we were assigned a dress from designer GANNI with a high price tag. Please help me find something similar and more affordable.’
A bridesmaid sought advice after she was asked to purchase a $595 dress to be part of the wedding party. The dress in question from luxury brand Ganni features adjustable satin laces.
Redditors offered their advice on the situation, with many urging the woman to talk to the girlfriend before getting engaged.
‘You have to talk to the girlfriend. It is a crazy price that not everyone can afford,” commented one of them.
‘If you can’t afford it, you should talk to the girlfriend about it. Unless you can find the exact dress secondhand somewhere, there’s a good chance she can tell that you bought a different dress, and if you haven’t talked to her about doing that beforehand, she’s very likely to get upset,” he said. other. .
A third added: “Don’t try to wear a different dress without saying anything when you’ve been asked to wear something specific, she’ll notice and it will look rude or tacky.”
‘If you can’t rent it or buy it second-hand, you should inform the bride that this is out of your budget and see what she says.
“I’ve had to do this before, if the bride is someone close to you…she’ll probably offer to cover part of the cost or choose a different dress.”

‘There are many modest dresses that don’t show off a person’s figure, that are flattering and that don’t look like a bag of rubbish that (the bride) might have walked away with if she felt insecure. Wow. That’s just bad,’ wrote another.
Others were not so kind, saying, ‘My friend picked out a $400 dress but only asked us to contribute $100 each. Unless all your friends are stupid rich, don’t choose a dress over $150.”
‘$595 for THAT?? I would withdraw from the wedding party. “That’s horrible,” added another.
