Taking to social media, the nervous wedding guest said: "Wedding guest panic dress too tight?"
"So I have a lovely dress for a wedding on Saturday but tried it on last night and it's very tight.
"The zip does do up with a lot of pulling but once it's up it feels very uncomfortable.
"I could wear it but with the heat as well it's going to be an ordeal. Feel so stupid."

But now she had second thoughts she was opting for a new outfit.
She shared picture of the ensemble which included a navy silky top with a V-neck and a white satin long-length skirt.
"Would that be ok do you think. It's a wedding in France. Due to be touching 30 degrees."
"I also have a black satin skirt and could look for a top to go with it.," she continued.

The post was inundated with comments from other Mumsnet users who revealed her outfit wasn't the best for the occasion.
One person wrote: "I'd steer away from the off white slip skirt. It's nice but too white and could be sweaty."
Another commented: "You will suffocate in satin polyester! Cool and loose, Tesco had some nice plain fitting double clothe dresses knit. Shirred top and spaghetti satrap and I know you do want spaghetti straps but... I'm in north Italy and the heat is extra hot."
Wedding Guest Outfit Etiquette
If you're struggling to decided on a dress to see you through wedding season, here's a few rules on what not to wear so you don't get in trouble.
- Folklore says that wearing red at a wedding means you slept with the groom.
- Casual attire like jeans and flip flops should always be avoided.
- Any colour that could be picked up as white or cream - even if it's not.
- Most would agree that your cleavage needs to be covered.
- Wearing white is a massive no-no if you're not the bride.
"Do not wear this to a wedding out of all the colours in the world, white satin is a bridal fabric and a navy top doesn’t offset it," penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: "I wouldn't wear a satin dark satin top, if you get hot, you'll have sweat stains. Not a good look."
