So I went to my cousin’s wedding the other day. It was held in a park, in 106 degree weather… shudders Because of some organization problems it didn’t get started until an hour and a half after the time printed on the invitations, and there was one bridesmaid who took it upon herself to be in charge of everything there.
The photographer was having no problems getting people to the spot where she wanted to take photos, but bridesmaid was constantly screaming “BOYS IN TUXES–OVER HERE!”.
Those in charge of the music were having no problems, but she took it upon herself to judge how the music sounded and was screaming “I CAN’T HEAR THAT. START IT OVER AGAIN” every three minutes for half an hour.
Finally, when it was time for the ceremony (after the obligatory “EVERYONE GO SIT DOWN” yell), she got into her place and such. We were treated to one last scream–“START THE MUSIC”–and the very nice ceremony went off without a hitch. We headed back to the ramada at the park for the reception, which was also very nice, especially since the bridesmaid had quieted down since the bride appeared. Of course, everyone was getting hot, so most people in the wedding party changed.
Bridesmaid changed intothis (probably not safe for work).
I love poetic justice. Yes, someone finally did let her know about the fabric of the pants she was wearing and she put on a long t-shirt that covered her, ahem, assets. I have no idea how anyone would manage to buy those pants and wear them without the full knowledge that they were sheer… and how in the world she thought it would be appropriate for a wedding.
How can anyone possibly be so completely clueless? Forget about appropriate attire for a wedding, those aren’t appropriate attire for anywhere outside a bottle filled with pillows and brocade. And god love the fat people, please know you have the right to wear whatever you want, but with a body shaped like that how can you think that even if those pants were appropriate outer wear that they were appropriate outer wear for you?
A true friend would take those pants away, light them on fire and use the flame to light up that awful top.
Tee hee hee - I bet it took a good long time for anybody to clue her in, too.
Although some things do look different under the flourescents in the dressing room than in the daylight, but it’s not like it’s not a little sheer under the flourescents. Remember one of the Kerry girls at Cannes who wasn’t thinking about, you know, the flashbulbs?
Sometimes some fabrics don’t really look “see-through” until you’re in bright daylight, and you’re screwed if you didn’t figure it out before wearing it in public.
I wonder if they looked opaque in the dressing room? Hard to say, though. They look pretty darn sheer in the picture.
That would be her undies lodged there, yes, as near as I can tell. (After playing with Picasa, I came up with this brightened version.) It was just as bad from the front, btw, and I can say with almost certainty that her undies are from Hot Topic.
I was horrified to find myself unable to look away from the bride’s backfat bulging out the top of the incredibly tight bodice of a strapless wedding gown this weekend. All brides are beautiful, yadda yadda, and maybe it was her dream dress from the age of five, but couldn’t someone have dropped some reality in and helped her find a more flattering choice?
Of course, the bridesmaids were no help, being in straplesses too.
I’m not fond of bumper stickers but if I ever saw one that said “Just because they make it in your size doesn’t mean you can wear it!” I might finally turn my vehicle into a billboard.
Jesus christ. <vomits explosively> And I’m a fat chick! There’s no way in hell I would wear those pants or the top. Some people just don’t know their limitations.
Most definitely! And for some items, there should be a law prohibiting their manufacture. Like lime green polyester stretch pants - NO ONE should be allowed to wear them. :eek:
Oh, my. I looked at the first picture and thought…“Not a good choice, but why all the excitement?” Then I saw the brightened version. Oh, my. Just: oh, my.
Personally I would’ve found it funny (and still taken a picture) if she wasn’t overweight. Her personality and her disregard for everyone else around her made her hideous fashion sense very funny for me. I don’t know about anyone else, though.
Even if I still had the figure for it, I wouldn’t wear it. When I had the figure for it, I did not wear anything remotely resembling it. If I were caught dead in it, I would come back to life to remove it and hide…Words fail me.
I confess to owning a pair of harem pants and wearing them in public, to work even. However, I made my harem pants four layers of chiffon thick and Had a voluminous over tunic that reached to my ankles. It was a mandatory Halloween costume day and I was Mother Nature. I do not understand the wearing of that outfit in front of anyone but those who like see you naked. I don’t like sharing my wedgie status with anyone.

Hard to say, though. They look pretty darn sheer in the picture.
