Danish influencer Pernille Rosenkilde chose to design and wear a sheer wedding gown for her church ceremony
A bride is facing criticism online for her choice of wedding gown.
Pernille Rosenkilde, an influencer from Denmark, has raised a lot of eyebrows after deciding to wear a sheer wedding dress to her church ceremony. Many people have labeled the outfit as ‘inappropriate’.
The dress, designed by the bride herself, featured a feathered vest worn over a leotard, paired with a sheer maxi skirt that brought the whole look together.
While Pernille undeniably looked stunning, many felt her choice wasn’t suitable for a church wedding.
The outfit was posted on a Facebook wedding-shaming page, and people did not hold back on their opinions.
“This woman wore this to a church wedding, she turned up in underwear to a house of prayer,” one person commented.

Another added, “I don’t care if it was a house of pancakes, it’s an ugly, awkward outfit with granny panties and a muppet top.”
In response to the negative comments, the bride addressed the situation in an Instagram post.
“It’s so crazy to have a dress drawing attention from 4 different Vogue magazines and also getting quite a few hateful comments due to the sheer skirt,” she wrote.
“Maybe people think we’re still in the Middle Ages, but hey, I designed my dream dress.
“I hand-dyed the feathers in tea and made small bouquets of them and hand-sewed them to the top of the dress. It took something like a month of work and wow, it was worth it.”

During an interview with Vogue Scandinavia, Pernille shared more about her design choices.
“I love wearing feathers and see-through fabrics, but I also wanted the dress to be elegant, classy, and a bit sexy,” she explained.
Despite the negativity, many people have rallied in support of her bold fashion statement.
One person encouraged her, saying, “Don’t think about all the stupid comments! You looked wonderful and are just the core of a strong independent woman💪 The dress is nothing but wonderful!”
