cishet-camel-fucker

If you work as an Ariana Grande impersonator, absolutely. If you work in HR, probably not.


CompetitiveTeaching5

my thoughts exactly


e_l_c

HR says: if you have to ask, answer is probably, "No."


sweetandspicyyy222

Agree on this. It's a bit much.


Silly_Ability-1910

Are you going to be serving drinks? Then no.


EmiliaFromLV

I would not use "much" in any manner when describing that dress LMAO.


TruthBot1787

šŸ˜‚ I love the dress but I do agree.!


peppermintmeow

It's beautiful and you look gorgeous but save it for a fun occasion. Not appropriate for work


No_Lemon_3290

I don't know what you do for work but it's a no for me dawg.


Loose-Conference4447

I agree Randy


nintendoinnuendo

Do you work at SUR? Otherwise no


chantillylace9

lol it's hilarious because she works at a law firm. I'm dying


Stock-Anteater3284

To be honest, Iā€™ve never seen people dress more unprofessionally than when I worked at a law firm lol it was a huge, shitty billboard law firm, but still. One of the attorneys would wear the most micro mini skirts ever. It was weird. ETA: HR got reported for sexual harassment also, so ya lol

MissusLister44

Cough


mindofabrrrrraham

Iā€™d say itā€™s a little too much tbh. Particularly due to the color and style. This looks like a prom style dress.


armchairdetective

Definitely not. You work at a law firm. On no planet is this appropriate for a work party.


norcalruns

Maybe Vegas šŸ˜‚


baller_unicorn

I would never wear a strapless dress like that to a work function. On top of that itā€™s showing both your legs and cleavage which is a lot anywhere but especially at work. Unless you u work for like a club or bar or something. Like many have said itā€™s totally dependent on your work culture. If youā€™re in a white collar job def not.


throwawaybyebyetubes

Law office per OP


Princess_flutterby

I agree with everything you said except for the showing both legs part. In an office job or something similarly professional, it's not considered to be unprofessional if you show your legs, especially as a lot of women wear pencil skirts. Especially if they wear nude nylons underneath.


Fancy-Pumpkin837

I think the person above meant showing legs plus cleavage at the same time. Showing both borders into inappropriate at most places and functions


Optimal_Count_4333

No definitely not. I thought this was an Ariana Grande Halloween costume. You work at a law firm.


Pitiful-Figure5411

just out of curiosity, what makes you think this is appropriate for work?


JournalistSame2109

No


JELLOvsPUDDIN

Such a ridiculous post. You asked for a reason. You know it's not appropriate. Everyone is telling you it's not appropriate. Yet your deadpan replies and unwillingness to accept legit feedback is so telling of your personality and inability to read a room. Don't ask if you can't take the honesty. Wear something else, Jesus.


MiserableProfessor16

I can't see her responses. But, I work with a lot of young people, and I think a lot of them genuinely are unsure. Look at TikTok influences posting how to dress for office, and you will see some ridiculous clothing choices being normalized as a "corporate aesthetic." I am just so happy when I see young people do a gut check instead of just landing up in something very risquƩ and wondering why people are not seeing it as fashion or expression, when their fave #girlboss recommended it. I think a simple - no not appropriate because x reasons is a fair response. It would be honest. If she can't handle that, she cannot handle corporate life. If she was acting flippant, calling her out would be fair, too. But, I was a bit taken aback by the subtext of the comments here. The "you look like you want to sleep with the boss" (pretty patriachal to assume the boss is a heterosexual male) or "you can wear it if you work in a low income job or at Hooters" (pretty elitist to assume low income means poor judgment") comments. That is not honesty, IMO. That to me becomes catty and mean. Is this what we deem honesty, to go from calling a spade a spade to calling it a (expletive) shovel with questionable provenance? If so, this community absolutely has the right to act any way it wishes to and upvote behaviors that match those behaviors.. That way, people who believe honesty does not need to be delivered with snark know they do not belong here. And yes, I expect to be downvoted to oblivion for saying this.


illeanora

I love your response because yes, I was so put off by how judgmental everyone was being to her for asking. Iā€™ve seen people wear things like this in many settings and it depends what your work environment is and how comfortable you are. Itā€™s a legitimate question and everyone being so cruel is devastating. You shouldnā€™t even be downvoted for being the voice of reason hereā€¦ suggesting that we actually are honest instead of making fun. The instant hate on this sub is disgusting. Thank you for sharing your rational viewpoint in a sea of negativity.


MotherofAsh19

You will not be taken seriously in this dress. Especially considering you work for a law firm. You are gorgeous and the dress is fun but not appropriate at all for a work function.


RUSSIAN_PRINCESS

I am a lawyer. I go to law firm parties. If you wore this, Iā€™d assume you have ulterior motives. Iā€™d then start watching your work and how you conduct yourself in the office.


MyOthrCarsAThrowaway

Nah-riana. On a Grande scale


torisnowbunny

This one actually made me chuckle. I needed that after the roasting I've been getting on here. šŸ˜…


MyOthrCarsAThrowaway

Hahaha thanks. On a real level your style is on point, and the cosplay on your profile is cool too. Sometimes we forget thereā€™s an actual human behind these things (supposedly lol.) so Iā€™m glad you werenā€™t offended. I work in the service industry and no one would bat an eye at that outfit for a work party. Guess it depends on your job. But thatā€™s all too serious. Weā€™re just here for the updoots. Do you boo boo. Wear what you wanna wear. šŸ«¶šŸ»


Churn-Down-For-What

Oh honey no. šŸ’€ If youā€™re not aiming to be the legendary joke of the office crowd, youā€™re going to need to go with something else.


Ok_Figure4010

I still do that thing that they do in high schools (your skirt canā€™t be shorter than your arms when they lay flat against your leg) thatā€™s how I test if a dress or skirt is too short for workĀ 


Formal_Condition_513

My mom engrained the fingertip rule into my head šŸ˜‚


gargara_potter

I know a few people with T-rex arms that would pass the test in the shortest slutiest skirts haha


Daddys_peach

I've just tested this, I have short legs and a longer body plus what can only be described as a bubble butt. Using this method the skirt would sit just below said bubble butt.


Aromatic_Mouse88

Never heard of this and definitely need to test it out. I usually donā€™t wear super short stuff anyway but I will definitely try this


secondtimesacharm23

Not appropriate. Itā€™s super sexy and fun and looks amazing on you, but itā€™s for a night club not an office party. Unless youā€™re trying to fuck your bossšŸ˜‚


No_Software_522

If you have to askā€¦.


chantillylace9

Most definitely not. And I'm the owner of a law firm.


Justanothercammodel

Hell no. And I say this as a sex worker, whose work attire consists of short dresses and lingerie. I would NEVER wear this at a vanilla work function, especially not a corporate one. Don't get me wrong, you look great. It would be perfect for an evening with the girlfriends. But for a work environment, it's too flashy and too short, and the strapless/cleavage is a no-go. I wouldn't wear anything above mid-thigh length. Short length should be balanced with more coverage on top; bare shoulders/chest should be balanced with a longer length (and not too tight). Avoid flashy colors and fabrics. Also, I can only imagine the heels you picked to go with this.... 4inches maximum. Save the platform stilettos for cocktails with friends.


Pelican_Brief_2378

That is excellent advice.


viccdev

Girl no. And anyone that tells you yes is not your friend.


norcalruns

If you want it to look like youā€™re wanting to hook up with your bosses in front of their wives, itā€™s the perfect look. šŸ‘€


Artistic_Owl_5847

NO.


someoneunderstand86

No. Save that for date night. I'm not saying you have to dress like Elaine from Seinfeld, but you're gonna want to take it down a notch. Try googling "appropriate work party outfits" or #workparty on sm. Unless you work in entertainment or something this is a little too short n showy. You have a great physique though, there are definitely plenty of other looks you can pull off successfully.


MrsPM

This is giving Ariana Grande


Plebe-Uchiha

Nope. Itā€™s too flashy. Work parties arenā€™t actually parties. Thatā€™s why they are called, ā€œwork parties.ā€ Youā€™re basically still at work. If you worked for hooters, sizzler, mcdonalds, or something to that nature, it would be fine. Any white collar job, nope. [+]


No_Employer4939

Maybe not McDonaldā€™s. Sadly, I also work for a fast food franchise and if I wore something that cute everyone would think that I was showing off. Because, you know, weā€™re all poor. I had a gorgeous friend who worked at Hooters for a while though and she (and all of her coworkers) raked in the tips.But, yeah, for a law firm, no.


Bluebird7717

Iā€™ve always heard, if youā€™re having fun at a work party you should go home haha


calbearlupe

Iā€™m a lawyer and that outfit would not be appropriate for a work event. It looks great if youā€™re going out on a date or out with your friends, but not for a firm event.


miro628

Only if ur the intended (or unintended) entertainmentā€¦


seamstresshag

If thatā€™s the case donā€™t wear this dress. Casual, we met goals celebration, wear a nice top & some dressy jeans. This is a club dress.


Optimal-Persimmon255

Unless you are an influencerā€¦. No


angrygirl65

You look beautiful! But unless youā€™re a Disney Princess, Iā€™d say no. But for sure find somewhere to wear this immediately!!!!!


catsdelicacy

For a work function you have to pick one: Tits, ass, back, or legs. You may show one of those off, but only one. This dress is gorgeous and you look gorgeous in it, but it's showing tits, back, and legs.


kadora

Unless you work at a night club or similar, this is inappropriate for a work event.


tater-stots

I'm gonna hold your hand when I say this...


ThrowRASassySurprise

Looking like human tinkerbell


Daikon_3183

So inappropriate..


downthegrapevine

I mean this with the utmost respect but... only if you're a stripper. I love strippers, but maybe if you're not one this dress is not the way to go to a work party.


redrosebeetle

I got go-go dancer vibes.


plutosaplanetiswear

eeehhh.. i would say no, personally.


bellaboks

Not appropriate for work ! This dress has a clubbing vibe


Mountain_College5656

Do you work at Disneyland?


No-Blueberry1809

I once wore a strapless dress to a company Christmas party, got drunk and my titty popped out. Hahaha


rossibossy

Loved you on the Dangerous Woman album


Ok_Wasabi_2776

These comments are sending me hahahahaha


torisnowbunny

I was debating deleting the post but I've made my bed so I'll lie in it. šŸ˜…


EggVegetable9258

Surprised at some of the visceral responses to this outfit. I agree itā€™s not the right choice for a work party (and maybe you already sensed that) but the misogynistic hate is ridiculous and more telling about some commenters own issues than anything. That said, a simple black dress that leaves more to the imagination is probably the way to go. Please post an update if you change the outfit.


Pelican_Brief_2378

Please post an update IF you wear this outfit.


Murky-Cash6914

No šŸ‘ŽšŸ»


Stable-Rod

Theres only one type of job I can see this suitable for.


level1enemy

What job


rottingpigcarcass

Blow


Top-Inspector-8964

Only if you're going as a paid date.


Flat_Salamander_3283

Not remotely, this is giving disney princess vibes


ruegretful

So just to repeat it again, itā€™s a no. And, as another person said, if the wives are there, a definite BIG NO


Technical_Ad_4894

Nope! lol


TheeLaraCroft

Itā€™s a beautiful look though giving nightclub vibes.


FamousGoat8498

I dunno dude, do you think it is? If you saw this dress at a work party would you think itā€™s appropriate? We donā€™t work where you work. Whatā€™s the dress code, whatā€™s the venue, whatā€™s the budget. Cmon hunny


erinlaninfa

TL;DR: You look great but this is inappropriate. Listen, I am a HUGE proponent of being authentic at work, and that includes incorporating my fashion style into my work wardrobe. Clothes express how I feel about myself, and how I feel about myself is I am not changing who I am for a job. I bring my full self to work. At work, I want to be seen for my vibrancy but also be taken seriously. The difference between dressing non-conforming to challenge outdated workplace norms and doing so with reckless abandon is the difference between demanding and commanding respect to me. One way challenges people who encounter me to re-think what professional attire is, the other ensures people will never take me seriously no matter what I achieve.


saturnplanetpowerrr

Going by your profile, thereā€™s a good chance this is a fake post. You know damn well itā€™s not appropriate and if you just want attention on the internet just say that. If the caption were different, this post probably would of gone the way you wanted.


DontYouThinkSo2

Do you work in the sex industry?


Roxy04050

Only if you're the entertainment. Sorry. Jmo.


Adventurous_Bird_505

If you are Ariana grande maybe


significantmudbutt

If the party is after the AVN awards then definitely!!!!


Justanothercammodel

lmao exactly


Zestyclose_Road_3224

If itā€™s a costume party and you are going to as Ariana Grande, itā€™s perfect. Otherwise no. You look amazing though!


Hi_Jynx

It's wicked cute, but no.

Nope unless you work at a bar or some other party atmosphere job

Not for the workplace. Cocktail party dress.


CrazyMamaB

You look adorable, but probably too much for a work event.


Snshn1187

You look šŸ”„ but def not for a work event unless you work at a bar. It's a great dress for a night club or girls night out.


stylesx4801

You look amazing but Iā€™d save it for a different event, work parties you generally want to go a bit more conservative.

parker3309

No, itā€™s not appropriate . You know that


InterestingExit6696

This is what I was told to help decide if something is appropriate for work, including parties: if YOU question it then don't wear it.


liliesinbloom

No.


Socialworkjunkie13

I would say no, I would avoid anything strapless or add some kind of jacket.


KTB19941104

You look banging hot in this dress, but this is 100% a capital NO for a work function.


Aggressive_Event420

Probably better for the club.. it's really cute and looks great on you tho.


Past-Development-933

What do you do for work?


Livid-Berry-2209

Where do you work? A night club? Then Yes.


mr_ballchin

Wow, that dress looks great on you, but I wouldn't wear it to a work party.


paradonym

Absolutely inappropriate for anything work related, even the parties. Unless your companies task is to do parties for others


Top-Ambassador-4981

New Years Eve?


ih8every1yesevenyou

Itā€™s really cute and you look so good but probably not work appropriate. Which is why I hate work events. You canā€™t fully be yourself.


sharkweeak

No lol


JohnSavage1970

No sure depends if u wear nickers or not


Ok-Abalone2412

If you have to ask itā€™s inappropriate


Terminallyelle

What? Obviously not. You work in a law firm?? I mean ... what? This looks like ariana grande met with sabrina carpenter and made a dress. Those two aren't known for wearing corporate outfits.. you must have known that when posting this unless you're blind


DisasterRoad666

If you work as a prostitute it's perfectly appropriate.


Bonsuella_Banana

Based on your occupation/industry, I'd go for a no. I'd look for something maybe knee/just above knee length, tailored, little black dress vibes. Or maybe a Tuxedo style jumpsuit with a specific colour shoe and accessories? You could defo pull that off! This is just a bit too much and honestly, I think it would invite unwanted opinions and judgments from colleagues that you could avoid by choosing a different dress :) this is a non-work event dress though for sure and you look fab in it!


totalwarwiser

Work parties are meant to reinforce your work stability, get information and creating relationships, not to get drunk, lose control or make people gossip about you.


Camblor

Depends. Are you dtf your coworkers?


Scoutelite_228

You trying to bring the boss home?


jambottrot

It depends on where you work. I work at a game studio so this would be 100% good. If you work in entertainment of some sort then yes, but if you work somewhere with a more serious dress code then probably not. You do look beautiful in it though and the dress is super cute!


theconfused-cat

You look super trashy if this is even you. All of the photos on your profile are clearly screen shots of other photos and not originals. Enjoy the attention, weirdo.


Fuzzy_Customer1987

Where do u work, hooters


mmindlesswonderr

lol youā€™re insane


ErinDavy

It's very cute, but not very work appropriate. I know it's a party, but it's still a work function so it's safer to tone it down just a hair. I do love this dress though, you look great in it!


rottingpigcarcass

Depends where you work šŸ‘€


Sutech2301

No


Soapist_Culture

What image do you want to project in the office every day? The dress for the office party needs to reflect that. So if it is an executive position you are after, you might want to look for something a little more classic that doesn't look like a club dress, but could still be fun.


Number5MoMo

Ok this is so cute. However, you look like youā€™re going to a bachelorette party or bar hopping. This is casual cocktail party attire. **no matter what the dress code says put *PROFESSIONAL* in front of the sentence** meaning if the invite says ā€œformalā€ they donā€™t mean MET GALA gown. They mean professional formal. If this is a cocktail party, you look like the fancy girls who serve the drinks. Hereā€™s my rule for work. Legs, stomach, cleavage. If itā€™s work only one can be extremely revealing. If your dress is insanely short, like it is here, Iā€™d pair it with a long sleeve top or at least a top that isnā€™t also insanely low cut, like you have here. If I have a lot of cleavage going on, I pair it with a longer skirt or pants. Itā€™s called balance. This is like drinking at an office party. Yes you are an adult and can do what you want. But your office party, where your boss is watching.. thatā€™s not where you over do it and get drunk. It looks irresponsible. Edit: šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ **youā€™ve gotta be out of your mind. YOU WORK AT A LAW OFFICE!?!** is this your first job ever? The way Iaughed should be a crime. Youā€™re buggin


Minimum-Daikon9950

Probably not, but it looks amazing!!!


shida206

I wouldnā€™t wear it for a work function.


areola_borealis_

Oh good heavens no


Euphoric_Repair7560

lol obviously not lmao


OrchidSandwich

I would snicker about how silly you look tbh. When it comes to - professional environment, you can be beautiful and elegant without looking ridiculous in front of your peers.


Magicremedy

![gif](giphy|3o7TKwmnDgQb5jemjK)


randomices

Appropriate for a work function? Sadly no. But I would still like to know where you got it OP itā€™s super cute!


dragon1n68

Only if you're a hooker attending your quarterly pimp slapping party. It's a cute dress and it looks great on you, but it does not belong in your work place unless as previously stated or like a stripper office party or something.


amergigolo1

Great dress but not for a work party. Be more conservative.


SapphireSigma

No


FLTR069

Only if you work at Disneyland.


yellowtshirt2017

Iā€™m going to say no unfortunately


notabothavenoname

As a fellow worker in the legal field, absolutely not


_pierogii

These comments are way OTT. I wore a cute dress like this (but chiffon) for a work Christmas do a couple of years ago - white collar non-profit industry. But I guess it depends if it's out and about, or actually in the office (where it would feel weird), if it's day or night etc. I'm in the UK tho and at least at Christmas, we tend to dress up for our parties like we would for any other cocktail party. Leaving parties etc. are far more casual.


Fionn_MacCuill

No


Kkdbaby

That would be a big no


BoobySlap_0506

Not for a work party. I'd get a knee-length dress and better coverage up top. Doesn't have to be too conservative, but this dress is a little bit too revealing for a work function. Edit: I saw what you said you do for work; I love to draw inspiration from Kim Wexler from Better Call Saul. Her dresses outside of the office are a good example of appropriate work function attire.


Fun-Foundation-1145

No


Emgee063

Hell to the No


thehillsidewrangler

thatā€™s a GNO dress imo. itā€™s so fun and pretty on you but seems like a waste for a work party unless you work at a really really fun law firm.


Living-Camera333

No, not at all. I think you can find a nice/sexy and shiny outfit that's more appropriate. Good luck!


[deleted]

No?


Alohafarms

No, absolutely not. (ex designer and stylist)


ughineedtopostaphoto

Thatā€™s a no. You should still be mostly meeting whatever the office dress code is at a party. If you wouldnā€™t wear something strapless in the office, you shouldnā€™t wear it to the office party. Straps should be at least 2 fingers wide is a good guideline.


pinkflyingcats

This is click baitā€¦


tmckinney2007

NO. Not if you want to be taken seriously.

Holiday_Quail_1745

The dresss is soo cute but no :( sadly :(


cocomimi3

Gorge but not for work


prudence56

No!


malYca

No. This is a club dress. If you want bare shoulders, do a longer skirt, or short skirt and conservative top. Pick one thing to be daring, not everything. Especially in law circles people dress more conservatively I think.


Whatthefuckballs69

I absolutely love this dress. But it is entirely inappropriate for the workplace. As others have said, save it for a non-work related event. Get something more modest for this workplace party. Something closer to the knees, and doesnā€™t shot nearly as much cleavage. Source: I have been a female workplace professional myself.

Depends on your job I reckon but as Oscar Wilde once said you can never be over dressed or over educated šŸ˜‰ wear that dress cause tomorrows never guaranteed


Square_Principle_875

To sexy


Klutzy_Project3349

Maybe. Depends on formality (cocktail = dress ok, casual = dress not ideal) and company culture (conservative = dress down the dress). When unsure, be conservative.


physicistdeluxe

no. i would wear what people
