    I apologise if this topic has been posted before. I was just wondering, is it bad to wear a black dress to a summer wedding? I've spotted a goreous black dress that I'm looking for an excuse to buy, but can't quite decide if its suitable for a wedding.. Any advice would be appreciated!

    I think it could be pulled off with colourful accessories and shoes,
    depending on the length and cut.

    Definitely. I don't see any problem with wearing black to a wedding. Not white though.
