Kendall Jenner is FINALLY addressing the backlash she got for that infamous dress she wore to
her friend’s wedding!
It was the dress that went viral, but for all the wrong reasons!
Kendall Jenner’s racy, black Monot dress raised a ton of eyebrows sparking a huge debate….
Should she, or should she have not, worn that dress to friend and influencer Lauren Perez’s
wedding back in November?
There was no shortage of articles, videos and social media breakdowns on whether or
not the dress followed wedding attendee etiquette rules.
I mean, hey, we did a story on it too, which around 95,000 of you watched, which we’ll
link above in case you haven't seen it!
Which had us thinking…
We know the major rule is to never wear white at someone else’s wedding.
So as long as Kendall wasn’t doing that, everything should have been mostly fine, right?
Uhh Wrong!
For the people on the internet who weren’t ok with the dress, which was mostly everyone,
many thought it was outshining Lauren on her big day.
Plus, the dress’ cutouts made it super revealing, prompting reactions like, “Wow someone wanted
the bride to NOT shine on her day, EGO MUCH,” and “Sorry, but that is NOT a dress you
wear to a wedding.
Strip club maybe.”
Damn, people!
Okay, we hear you on these concerns, but, let’s be real- it’s Kendall Jenner!
Just her presence alone as a celeb will usually outshine others– regardless of what she’s
wearing.
Also, have you seen what Kylie wore to Justin and Hailey’s wedding in 2019?
Maybe dressing unconventionally for a wedding runs in the family…
But we do have to admit, rather than being focused on Lauren or the fact that Kendall
attended her wedding in general, we’re way more focused on Kendall and what she wore
to the wedding.
With the amount of attention the geometric-shaped dress received, Lauren is obviously aware
of all the criticism.
When the newlywed recently reposted her wedding photos in a photo dump, lots of people were
quick to comment again on the appropriateness of Kendall’s dress.
Someone left an I-G comment saying, “How to upstage the bride 101.”
This person wrote, “So disrespectful to wear this.
In every photo you see her, not the bride.”
Another person responded, “Inappropriate outfit at a wedding @kendalljenner I'm embarrassed
for you.
#cringe”
But not everyone thought people should be fussing over the dress.
This person replied to the previous comment, “if the bride herself doesn’t G-A-F why
do you care?
Relax.”
To which Lauren, the bride, agreed and said, “Tell ‘em!
SHE LOOKED STUNNING AND I LOVED IT !”
And this here, my friends, is where Kendall finally addresses the dress, AND she specifically
reveals to the world, “@laurenperez obvi asked for your approval in advance too 🥰 we
love a beach wedding ❤️‍🔥.”
And knowing Kenny got Lauren’s approval was enough to make several people in the comments
totally fine with the dress!
One person even wrote that Kendall looked “stunning!”
Ok, I think we can all agree– minus everyone’s opinions about the appropriateness of the
dress– everyone did in fact look stunning!
And we have to remember, it wasn’t our wedding– it was Lauren's.
And these are celebs we’re talking about, so they’re way less conventional in general!
At the end of the day, it seems like the best wedding etiquette to follow as a guest is
always getting the bride’s stamp of approval!
So if Lauren gave Kenny the green light to wear the Monot (MUH-NO) dress, then it looks
like it’s case closed, end of story.
But then again… when has something being put to an end ever stopped people from continuing
to debate?

dress now that we found out her bestie approves!
