TikTok users weren’t impressed by her other dress choices either[/caption]
You want to looks stylish and sophisticated, but must never upstage the bride.
Taking to TikTok, Skye Spalding shared some options for a Sicilian wedding.
“I’m going to a black tie wedding in Sicily….which dress?”, she asked her followers.
Skye then shared a selection of four beautiful floor-length gowns, including a beaded yellow and beige frock, and a navy blue halter neck number.
However, it was one dress in particular that caused uproar in the video’s comments section.
The first dress in Skye’s slideshow was undoubtedly stunning, but was a bride shade of white.
Skye appeared to be unaware that she was breaking the number one wedding rule, but others were quick to warn her against wearing the dress.
Her video, posted under the username @skyespalding, quickly went viral, racking up over five million views, and 42,000 comments.
One person commented: “Italian here.
“Never ever wear all shades of white at a wedding in Italy, only the bride can wear that colour.”
A second person said: “Not white.
“In Italy, at a wedding as a guest, you will have the whole town mad at you.
“Not sure why you would have even put that as an option.”
A third person chimed in: “Girl just look up black tie wedding dress code.
Wedding Guest Outfit Etiquette
If you’re struggling to decided on a dress to see you through wedding season, here’s a few rules on what not to wear so you don’t get in trouble.
- Folklore says that wearing red at a wedding means you slept with the groom.
- Casual attire like jeans and flip flops should always be avoided.
- Any colour that could be picked up as white or cream – even if it’s not.
- Most would agree that your cleavage needs to be covered.
- Wearing white is a massive no-no if you’re not the bride.
“None of these dresses matches the theme.”
A fourth chimed in: “Have you looked up black tie wedding..
“I assume not, as none of these are what you’d wear and definitely NOT WHITE.. unless you are the bride..?”
