I think this dress is too small. You have a great figure but the cut around the chest shoulders and the tight fit (especially around your privates) is not as flattering as I think you could find in another dress. The dress with sleeves is very pretty and could be a great option Answer from Micks_Mom on reddit.com

Is this a better cocktail dress? I had originally posted a sage dress with a cut out and the consensus was that it was too casual (link below) and now wanted to know if this fits cocktail more. Again this is a botanical garden wedding in Denver in June.

The fabric and general shape looks cocktail to me but I’d personally be nervous about moving around in such a low cut top. Also this looks taupe??

Does this dress look cheap or is it wedding appropriate?
It’s beautiful but more of a date night dress. I would choose a longer, cocktail dress. More on reddit.com

Can a cocktail dress be long?
When it comes to finding the perfect cocktail dress, length is an essential consideration. We recommend choosing a dress that falls somewhere between knee-length and mid-calf, as this is the most universally accepted length for cocktail hour.

What is considered a cocktail dress?
A cocktail dress is a mid to knee length dress in a dressier fabrication, like silk, sequin, satin and more. As for colors and styles, the possibilities are endless. For a classic look, opt for a little black dress with understated details, or choose a bold and bright hue that speaks to your personal style. We also love dresses with unique embellishments, such as beading or lace, to add a touch of whimsy and elegance to your look.

r/Weddingattireapproval on Reddit: Searching for "Hunter green"/ dark green cocktail dress. Ill fitting and/or too booby?
May 1, 2024 -

Hello all, going to a wedding in late June for my boyfriend's sister, dress code is cocktail attire at an upscale resort in the mountains. My boyfriend is wearing a greenish/blue suit and I'd like to match with a darker green cocktail dress. I am really picky about dresses unfortunately, I am also not confident about my body. I had my period when I tried on this dress so maybe it will fit slightly better in the tummy area in a couple of days. Anywho, I feel like the dress is too booby and doesn't fit me well but I always wonder if maybe I'm over thinking things? I feel like the dress has a lot of creasing and the stomach area bunches a bit.

I have attached a picture of another dress I was considering, sleeves are usually preferred and I usually avoid dresses with "spaghetti straps", I don't like how they fit me because I'm self conscious.

Thank you in advance for the advice ❤️

You can add a pop of color contrast like blue or purple, as long as you don’t go too pastel – this will complement your look without taking away from your dress. Typical cocktail length is above the knee, so when you look for a green cocktail dress, a short hemline is usually what you’ll find.
