Err, that sounds like a load of hooey.

If it were a "red dress", I might agree


But it sounds like a black dress WITH red.


I think you are okay.

If it was 1969, iI'd caution you against wearing either black or red. Since it's well beyond 1969, I think you're fine.

Fashion tips, Kevy?! Don't tell me you're coming down with a case of the gays!

Oh... And wear what you want, MG. It sounds lovely.

Thank you!
This is the dress:



I know it sounds petty, but it is the first dress I have bought in a long time.

nice dress

Your dress choice is more than fine, MG- it is entirely appropriate given the time of day and the time of year. (I do tons of weddings and am very up to date on trends and etiquette). I think it will look lovely on you.:cheers:

Thank you. I thought it was pretty, and then when everyone started saying I couldn't wear red... I felt horrible.

Go, have fun, and it anyone gives you **** tell them you already cleared it with Miss Manners and she told you only a backwoods redneck moron would think it wasn't appropriate.
