h.
I'm a gay chick who likes eye candy, but there's a time and place for everything.

Stay classy.

As a thought experiment, suppose she had been an extra hundred pounds overweight. Would the "mean girl" types still say she should have been bullied? "Fat woman in skimpy dress gets beer poured on her by outraged wedding goers" -- doesn't sound quite as appropriate, does it?
This has nothing to to with her body or size. This has to do with the fact that it's an inappropriate dress for a wedding at any size.

Not even in Las Vegas.

I've been to a lot of weddings (I play in a wedding band), and I've seen a lot of girls wearing sleeveless shifts or off-the-shoulder short dresses that expose as much skin as this woman's dress did. It depends on the wedding, the age of the bride and her peers, and the venue.

Apparently some outraged readers here are upset about the extra tightness of this woman's attire, combined with her buff, toned, shapely figure which is practically bursting out of the tube.

So, let's hear the verdict from the dress police. Would one more inch on the skirt have fixed this? Maybe a half inch of slack in the waist? A different color? A bra? A sweater?

Honestly, this seems like a tempest in a teapot. There's a spectrum from naked to Victorian and apparently she crossed the line, but no one can identify that line, so it's just a pile-on by jealous people who wish they looked that good.

I think she looks like a transvestite with really good make-up myself.

I think the issue is not jealousy, but the fact that she brought the issue up, saying she was bullied.

Man, she is so full of it. Let me guess who slapped her ass---friends---the type of friends that are okay doing that to each other. Oh and spilling a drink? That has NEVER happened where drinking is involved.

Once, I had a wedding and I wore a wedding dress and someone stepped on my dress while we were dancing and I was so upset and offended because they were out to get me OBVIOUSLY because they hated my dress not because it was an accident. And now I wish social media and viral posts were this popular five years ago so I could have all this attention and be featured in a Yahoo! article.

How long until she puts out a fitness video?

I feel as if it was not appropriate for her to take attention way from the bride. This is just Etiquette 101.
There is nothing wrong with the dress on her, but it is not appropriate for the occasion, IMO.

What she wore:



Just SMH, what an obvious "Hey! Look at me!" I am not surprised she got scrutiny.
I've seen this story pop up on my FB feed as well and all I can do is laugh at people who think and say negative things about her.

There is nothing wrong with what she wore to the wedding. She looks fantastic!! Because she looked so darn hot/sexy/beautiful the women who WISHED they looked as good as her complained. Yes, thats right, this is totally a jealousy issue where ugly women were butt hurt over not looking as good as this woman.

Not jealousy with me for one.... I like to blend in always have.. I like nice classy types of clothes though that show off my figure in another way..and not so obvious and would never have did this to a friend at her wedding.. but then maybe the bride didnt mind and dresses like that herself or was trashy like some brides and bridesmaids are these days..what the hell are some women thinking these days....

Totally inappropriate and just a cry for attention. Unfortunately, it worked. She got her fifteen minutes and is probably loving it.
