a bride asked you to wear this BM dress?

True story from the Dress board. (The bride wishes to know if it's zilla)

I would laugh at her and tell her she has really shitty taste.

SarahPLiz · November 2009

I think I would have to crawl around n the floor RAWR-ing a la Little Miss Sunshine

Brie2010 · November 2009

Oh. My. God.

I would probably wear it. I'd be annoyed and embarrassed, but I'd do it for any of my friends.

kate51485 · November 2009

Are they getting married at Disney Animal Kingdom?

RachNRich · November 2009

Where do I sign up to be in this wedding party?!?!

Seriously though, it shitious.

Nebb · November 2009

I MIGHT consider wearing it if it was knee length instead of floorlength.

apple_green · November 2009

haha! I actually like the design, just not the pattern. I'd wear i though. It would be fun.

This. As soon as I saw the picture, I RAWRed to myself.

ricksang · November 2009

I would wear it but I would suck it up if she really wanted the dresses.

janedoe1113a · November 2009

I saw this on the dress board. Why the heck would you have a leopard themed wedding?

agk0125 · November 2009

wtf is that? HELL no.

What's sad is that it's a nice cut of a dress. Just a bat sh!t ugly print.

julezlee · November 2009

At least it's only $50, right?

The fact that it comes in S, M and L sizing doesn't bode well for boob coverage.

mwhitson14 · November 2009

Ugh. If my friend showed me that as her BM dress, I'd laugh and tell her she was being silly. And hopefully, she won't admit she was serious and move on.

danieliza1127 · November 2009

I would laugh and hope she was joking, I would gently try to talk her out of it. Then if she really was serious, I guess I would suck it up and wear it. I've worn my share of crappy BM dresses.

notquiteblushing · November 2009

I guess I'm a pushover but I'd do it. I mean, hopefully, she would have said something like "I was thinking of incorporating some crazy safari pattterns into the wedding attire, what do you think?" and eased slowly into showing me that dress. But then again, this is all a hypothetical because I don't think anyone who would ask me to be a bridesmaid has taste that bad.

ring_pop · November 2009

I told said bride that I'd wear it if she was a really good friend, but I'd probably gossip about it all over the place.

Oh yeah, I would most likely also be intoxicated as I walked down the aisle if that matters to her.

I went and read the post and like the idea of leopard sashes. A little bit of flair without going crazy.

Brie2010 · November 2009

I just posted over there. I said that it reminds me of these pictures from FBIL/FSIL's wedding--she made FI wear a bright orange polo shirt as best man and he HATED it. He's not into bright colors and felt like a pumpkin. In all the pictures, he's grimacing and slouching and self conscious because he was so out of his element. It's really obvious. I don't understand why you'd intentionally put your BP in something that will make them stabby faces in your pictures.

Gabs71109 · November 2009

Luckily - there is not a single person I know that would make me wear such a dress.

fangsiting · November 2009

I would laugh and ask her "no, really. what are we wearing?"

bbyckes · November 2009

I'd do my damned-nest to try to talk her out of it. If not, I'd just try to rock the shiit out of it. I'd stick a Pebbles bone in my hair and be done with it.

I seriously find it difficult to believe that someone would actually choose that for their BM dresses.

FutureMrsKnapp2010 · November 2009

if that was the dress that my friend really wanted me to wear I would do it for her. It would not be my taste or preference, but i'd do it for her because its her day!

fangsiting · November 2009

Wow. I just read the original post (and replied).! When did "leopard" become a color?

mscutieri · November 2009

I would tell her that it will look bad on me (and my body shape) which will make her pictures look bad. Maybe that would be enough to make her pick a different dress...

cukimerrydoll · November 2009

I would laugh. And ask her what her grandparents would think. For a wedding, family can be easily offended.

It would also clash with any bouquet put with it. And you do coordinate with the groomsmen?? It's just so silly.

squirrly · November 2009

Oh god no. Maybe if she paid for it, but I'm sorry, I don't think I could wear that. I'd prefer an 80s prom gown over that, actually. At least then in pics people would ask what bridezilla asked you to wear that. I'm afraid in pics of that people would assume I picked it, as it doesn't look anything like a BM dress.
