Aussie fashion retailer Meshki has just debuted its newest bridal collection, but one dress is getting all the attention.
- A bridesmaid dress from Meshki’s new bridal range is causing controversy online
- The $199 ‘Daniella’ has a strappy corset-style top and a skirt with a daring split
- It exposes a generous glimpse of cleavage and one leg right up to the inner thigh
A risqué bridesmaid dress from an Australian fashion brand has sparked debate on social media with many branding it ‘totally inappropriate’ for a wedding.
The $199 ‘Daniella’, which is part of the new bridal collection from Sydney website Meshki, has a strappy corset-style top sewn to a silk skirt, with light ruching across the waist and a daring split up the right side.
Available in four colours – blush, white, champagne and black – the revealing silhouette exposes more than a generous glimpse of cleavage and the entirety of one leg, stopping just short of the bikini line along the upper inner thigh.
“As if that’s appropriate for a bridesmaid dress,” said one, adding that it was more suited to a night on the town.
Said another: “If I had that body, I’d wear this as my Thursday grocery shopping dress. But I wouldn’t want to wear it as a bridesmaid.”
Added a third: “I would look at the bride sideways if she asked me to wear this tiny thing with my bits hanging out.”
Wrote one more: “A big nope for me, I do not want your boobs peeking out at my wedding!
It’s true that the dress doesn’t look much like a classic bridesmaid gown.
But with more and more couple embracing trendy, alternative wedding styles, there’s likely to be a bride out there somewhere who would love to see her bridesmaids in the ‘Daniella’.
In fact, several women have commented across Meshki’s social media pages that they’d buy the gown for their own bridesmaids, or would happily wear it themselves.
