Tahlia Skaines, 29, a Gold Coast influencer who has amassed over 800,000 followers online, has caused a stir over her wedding guest attire.

The 29-year-old recently shared a series of photos online of herself in a cream gown featuring a large cut-out and plunging neckline that she wore to someone else’s wedding.

She captioned the photos, “A beautiful day celebrating love.”

Her fans were lapping up the look in her comment section.

“Beautiful,” one praised.

“Stunning,” another wrote.

“Wow,” someone admired.

Further afield, though, debate has erupted over the racy look, with someone resharing her photos in a Facebook group and asking if anyone else thought the look was a bit “excessive.”

Online, people were divided on the gown.

Some argued that non-traditional looks were normal now, and if she looked “hot” and the bride didn’t mind, then who cares?

But others thought the outfit was distasteful to wear to someone else’s wedding.

“I would politely ask her to change outfits or leave,” one claimed.

Another claimed it broke the number one rule when attending a wedding: not to “upstage” the bridge.

Someone else claimed the dress was “tacky” and made it look like she was trying to compete with the bride, and another claimed that Ms Skaines must want “attention.”

What people choose to wear to other people’s weddings is an absolute hot topic at the moment and always seems to ignite fiery debate.

Last week, Influencer Isabella Mathers caused a stir among her followers by wearing a bridal-looking dress to her dad’s wedding.

The Aussie influencer, who has over a million followers, clarified that although the dress appeared white, it was baby pink.

It was a non-traditional event, and the bride wore a floral number, which means Mathers’ outfit looked more bridal than the bride’s.

She looked gorgeous in a satin and lace gown by designer Danielle Guizio. She posted a series of photos on Instagram to show off her outfit.

She paired the slinky number with some nude heels, and her partner, Harri Musumeci, matched her in a white linen shirt, cream pants, and sneakers. Mathers referred to him as “my date forever”.

The wedding celebrations appeared low-key, and in a backyard, and in true influencer fashion, Mathers documented the day.

Suspecting criticism could be coming her way, Mathers clarified why she chose to wear the designer dress.

“Before anyone has something to say about my dress, it was not a traditional wedding. There was no dress code, and my dad’s partner wore a floral dress. Half of the guests were wearing white,” she wrote.
