A mother of the bride has been criticized for planning to wear a dress that would “turn heads” at her daughter’s wedding.
The girlfriend, believed to be American, went to reddit to share a snap of the outfit her mom is considering wearing for her big day, saying her fiancé says it’s “too bridal.”
Featuring silver details and embroidery, the dress is a peach tulle ball gown with an extremely low neckline and corset back.
Many commenters were unimpressed by the dress, with some suggesting it was “very look-at-me.”
Sharing a series of photos of the outfit, the bride wrote: ‘Hi everyone, I’m the bride and my mom sent me this dress that she plans to wear at my wedding. My fiancé says it’s too bridal, but I’m not sure and I want others’ opinions please.

She added: “I’ve never been to a wedding before, so I’m really not the best at this kind of thing.” Thank you!’
People were shocked by the mother’s choice of dress for her daughter’s wedding, saying it was “not appropriate for the occasion” and criticized her for trying to steal the spotlight.
One person said: “Looks like mom is trying to prove she still has it.” It draws a lot of attention.’
Another wrote: ‘It’s too important. It just doesn’t look like a traditional mother of the bride dress. And since you posted it here, I think you have doubts, and that’s what matters. It’s very “look at me” at an event that isn’t about her.
Someone else wrote: “I guess I’m making assumptions but it’s too ‘young’ for me. It looks like a party dress.
A fourth agreed, saying, “This looks like an over-the-top Sweet 16 dress.” Or young party dress. This is not a formal mother of the bride dress.
Meanwhile, someone else said they agreed with the bride’s fiancé, saying: “I’m usually lax about this kind of stuff and I say let people wear what makes them happy, but I would draw the line at this.” .
‘The label even says bridal couture. This is not fair to you and people’s attention will be on your mother for the wrong reasons. I agree with your fiancé. I think you need to talk to her.
The bride thanked everyone for their comments and added: ‘I agree with you, I think it could definitely be used as a wedding dress! I wanted to see how other people feel about it or if I’m going crazy.’
