WHEN you think of wedding dresses, people automatically imagine traditional white lace.

However, one woman proudly showed off the rather unconventional frock she decided to wear - but it was her choice of shoes that really got people talking...

In a clip shared to TikTok (@smallspacebiglife), the fashion whizz begins: "I'm not a big dress person and I also hated most of the standard options I saw out there for wedding dresses.

"I was looking for something that was a little more contemporary and fashion forward but not over the top and I found the perfect thing."

Tina then removes the dress from the box, before holding it up to the camera.

"It's 100% silk organza and it's by a brand in San Francisco…obviously this dress is meant to be worn with something underneath so I do have a silk slip that I'll be wearing underneath it," she explains.

"I just love the shape of it.

"I wanted something that wasn't form fitting and wasn't your classic sort of silhouette.

"I love that it has sleeves with a little bit of this beautiful detail and the high neckline is just gorgeous.

"It's simple and sophisticated and really everything I'm going for for my unconventional wedding."

The bride-to-be then moves onto the shoes and says she ended up with "slipper like mules" from a brand called Neous, which were originally priced at £749.

"I got these babies like 80% off the original price…I think they're really gorgeous and perfect type of wedding shoes," she says.

They very much remind me of a Cinderella slipper - this nylon sort of front that's a bit see-through and then it's got a sort of narrow long toe that's really flattering.

"And I also love that they've got this clear heel."

It wasn't long before the post racked up a whopping 474k views and several comments - with very mixed responses.

"I love the dress and gasped when I saw those shoes, however I do not love them on," wrote one.

Tina replied: "I hear you! My feet are a bit wider so they tend not to flatter dainty shoes like these when up close.

"Looks better from a bit further!"

A second penned: "Love the dress - not sold on the shoes."

A third wrote: "The dress is nice. But a think the shoes are difficult to wear."

Meanwhile, another noted: "The dress is gorgeous! I would wear a different shoe but still it’s your day and your look should be exactly what you dream of."

But others argued that the dress and shoes together are the perfect combination.

"I’m surprised at how many people don’t love the shoes," commented one social media user.

"I think they’ll look perfect with the dress, they were made for each other."

A further pointed out: "The shoes are amazinggggggggg, maybe like a nudish feet/toe cover type thing for more of a seamless look? but if not, still GORG."

Another commented:

A second penned: "Based on the comments I expected the shoes to be like, rain boots. I think they’re modern and chic."

Tina responded: "Lol there is serious hate for the shoes for some reason."

And one more added: "That dress is stunning, and those shoes are going to finish the outfit perfectly."
