Disgruntled bridesmaids have to wear and PAY for ‘hideous’ £145 yellow dress that’s the ‘fugliest thing’ they’ve ever seen

Posting on Mumsnet, the woman explained she's one of six bridesmaids and they "all absolutely hate the dress she has picked" – which they've also been told to pay for.

The yellow organza ruffled ball gown, with gem detailing, is strapless and costs £144.99 (reduced from £357.99) – and the bridesmaid has called it "the fugliest dress I have ever seen".

She added: "I’m a firm believer of wearing whatever the bride wants you to.

"She has also asked us all to pay for our dresses but she told us upfront when she asked us to be bridesmaids that we would need to so we are fine with this (within reason).

"There are 6 of us and we all absolutely hate the dress she has picked. She has found it online with her DM (darling mother) and it is honestly the fugliest dress I have ever seen.

"We’ve decided to tell her how we feel and drew straws. I obviously drew the short straw.

"So AIBU (am I being unreasonable) to tell her that we do not want to wear and pay for these monstrosities?

"How do I do that without upsetting her? She’s so stressed and I don’t want to add to that. She wants them in yellow. Not a flattering colour on any of us."

And her fellow mums were completely sympathetic.

One wrote: "F*** me. It is hideous. You cannot possibly wear it. What is she thinking!"

While a second said: "Holy s*** that is an awful dress! Good luck" and a third added: "You pay you choose."

Another mum commented: "Everything about that dress is grim! No one will wear it again".

One woman slammed: "Oh dear, they’re bloody vile! Not really sure how to advise you to talk to your friend but I think you must!"

And another mum agreed: "S*** £144 for THAT?!? If she was paying, I'd suck it up but why should you spend £144 on something you're going to wear once and then throw in the bin."

Others asked if the wedding had a particular theme the bride wasn't aware of.

One mum said: "It looks like something out of Big Fat Gypsy Weddings! Yes I'd say that all six bridesmaids hate it and are not prepared to pay for it. Grit your teeth and just do it."

While a second asked: "Yellow? Is it a Sesame Street themed wedding because you will all look like Big Bird!!"

And a third said: "Is it a Disney themed wedding? Sorry – I've nothing further to add apart from I hope it goes well, and she can see sense."

Yesterday we revealed this woman was slammed for wearing a WHITE dress to wear to her friend's wedding.
