I wore a body hugging dress to my cousin’s wedding – my sister accused me of making everything awkward
A WOMAN chose to wear a tight dress for her cousin’s wedding, but quickly realized it was a mistake.
Her sister said it was inconsiderate of her to dress the way she did for the wedding.
“I decided to wear this lovely black and purple dress…It was tight and a little short however I wanted to show off my slender figure,” the woman wrote in a Reddit post.
She said the wedding was fine, but the dinner party was when the disaster happened.
She felt restricted in that dress as eating, drinking, and dancing felt uncomfortable, so she decided to leave early.
She told her sister and she didn’t react well.

Her sister said she was an “idiot” for wearing a body-hugging dress to a wedding.
“The wedding isn’t about [you]” her sister said to her.
Both assumed that their cousin was disappointed because she was unable to stay for the full wedding.
She asked on Reddit if her sister was right or if she was acting inconsiderately.

People in the comments had a lot to say about her decision to wear the dress.
One person said: “Yes, and it’s kind of tacky to want to show off at someone’s wedding to the point that you have to leave early because your clothes are uncomfortable.”
“I feel like that if this dress was so tight and short that you couldn’t eat drink and dance, then it wasn’t appropriate. I don’t think a ‘skin tight’ dress would be wedding appropriate anyway,” another person commented.
Other people had different opinions.

“It was just unfortunate that your dress wasn’t mechanically capable for the event especially if you haven’t worn it for a while,” one Reddit user said.
“I mean as long as it wasn’t white, NTA. The dress portion isn’t really the part that I would be considering the part where you would be the jerk,” another person wrote.
