A WEDDING guest has been criticized after she showed two pictures of dresses she wanted to wear to the event.
People didn't think the outfits were appropriate for such a formal party, calling the options "truly terrible" and cheap.
An anonymous Reddit user posted : A royal blue dress and another that was greyish blue.
"6pm wedding, formal attire, too prom-y or cheap looking? Everything looks prom to me," the person wrote in the caption.
The question, shared with the subreddit, garnered a robust response from commenters.
The No. 1 answer was from someone who said to "keep looking."
Others, however, were more generous, explaining their answers.
"The first is better but still not good. Too lingerie with too high and open of a slit," one wrote.
"The first defines your waist more and is more flattering, but the slit is truly terrible," a second said.
"The second gives you zero shape except a box, so keep that in mind when deciding on a dress," he or she continued.

"The slit is too high and pronounced, which is what 'cheapens' the look a little," a third added.
"Unless the wedding has a saloon girl theme, I would find something else," a fourth wrote.
Some people suggested she shop at Lulu's to find a better dress, and she liked that option.
"I love that vibrant Lulu's dress too and actually that whole site," the original poster said.
"I'm finding it so hard to find dresses with free returns and there's not much in person around me so I'm having to online shop," she added.
Lulu's "buys and designs sophisticated, chic and modern styles," it wrote on its .
The company offers former dress options for under $100.
