Okay so I've emailed a picture of this dress to the bridesmaids/bestwomen in our wedding. I hope they like the dress, but I also hope that it looks formal. They have pretty low budgets, and I completely respect that, because weddings are expensive. FI has already stated his opinion of not thinking short dresses look formal. I want the dress to be something the girls could potentially wear again, and something that they'll like. So this is the dress. Do you ladies/gentlemen (I don't know if guys get on here) think that this dress is formal?
(I found it in misses and ladies sizes. They may be a tad different. I'm not sure if it's just the way the dresses are sitting on the manikin.)
