The model is 5'10", so if you're shorter, it would definitely fall below the knee.

So that is what people are wearing. Gosh I am so not going. I have no money to go shopping and don't own anything like that. And to fat to look good in those right now. (oh I used to be so think could have so pulled it off)

I got skirts and tops with shells.

Believe me, you can wear whatever 'shabosdike' clothes you have. The ones Barbara showed are for close people. Other guests just wear whatever they like!

Totally. Anything Shabbos-y. Not white. Some say, not black. Obviously, not red. Wear a little more jewelry than usual. Costume is fine. Wear lipstick. That is quite enough.

Do you have any nicer skirts? Lace, tulle, satin or silk? You could wear any of those with a shell, cropped sweater, jewelry and heels and you'll look very fashionable.

I went to a second hand store and found a nice dress. It is black on the top and gold on the bottom. I went and brought fancy costume jewelry that doesnt look cheap.
This is my dress

the best thing we did by my daughter's wedding is not care what anybody wore - even close family ... so everybody was happy [almost]

THE DRESS can be worn to more than one wedding, and it can help you match more than one color scheme. I think it's a wise investment.

Caveats:

You must stay the same size for both weddings.

The color schemes are limited to blue/black, OR white/gold.

The ENTIRE wedding party - especially the kallah - must be on the same wavelength regarding the color of the dress.
