Bride 'bullied' after wearing black bra with white wedding dress
A bride was trolled by strangers who called her "trashy" after she wore a black bra with her cream wedding dress on her big day. Basak, 33, opted for a bustier maxi dress with Gucci leather pumps during an intimate civil ceremony in front of 15 guests on March 29 at Hackney Town Hall, London. After tying the knot with partner, Goksu, 33, the newlyweds were excited to share photos and videos from their big day on TikTok - but Basak says she received a backlash for her choice of dress. She decided to wear a gown with the straps and top of the cups of a black bra visible over the neckline - as she felt it was "chic". But strangers were quick to comment - dubbing her outfit "tacky", "trashy", and "disgusting" and Basak says it left her feeling "bullied". Basak, from Hackney, London, said: “I only had 200 followers back then. “A couple of people started to write that there's something wrong with my dress. “At first I was really, really surprised. “I didn't think anyone would comment on the dress. "People were saying you cannot wear black to your wedding, they [wedding dresses] are white for a reason. "Mostly they were saying my bra was showing and it was revealing - they said it was inappropriate. "'It's not a fit for a wedding'. some people were saying 'have you dressed in the dark?'. "It was comfortable and felt like me. "I wanted something from the high street, but something unique and I hadn't seen this dress on anyone else. "I deleted some of the comments - the ones that were saying it was disgusting and horrible - because it was bothering me and making me unhappy." On the day itself Basak says she "felt amazing". She said: "I felt great on the day and then I got the photos and felt so much joy. "I was shocked, I didn't expect such backlash. "It didn't ever cross my mind that someone would not love my dress or say nasty things about my dress." Basak bought her wedding dress from high street brand Because Of Alice for just £130. With the couple due to have a big wedding in Milan, Italy, in July 2025, the bride "didn't want to spend thousands". She excitedly shared some snippets from their civil ceremony online and quickly received almost 200,000 views - but became "upset" at the comments section. Basak said: "They were mostly anonymous users. "They said they hated our look - because it was black and secondly because the bra was showing. "Most of the people saying these things are entitled to have an opinion, but it doesn't mean you can make hurtful …
