A woman sparked a flurry of conversations online after showing up to her child’s wedding wearing a bikini under a sheer dress.
The mother, named Paulina, revealed that she originally planned on wearing a white gown for the wedding of her 28-year-old daughter and Taiwanese actress Jin Cheng.
But after her daughter begged her not to upstage the bride, the 57-year-old mother said she decided to ditch her original idea and opted for a crystal mesh cover-up that would go on top of a blue bikini, according to Daily Star.

Netizens certainly had plenty to say about the mother’s choice of outfit, with some asserting that a bikini is quite the deviation from the typical wedding dress code.
“That’s so inappropriate to wear underwear at a wedding,” one said, while another wrote, “The outfit is not appropriate for a wedding, I can’t imagine what the mother of the bride would say about this!”
“You’re not the bride and that’s not elegant at all,” read a third comment.
“I’d be fuming if I were the bride,” one said.
Another wrote, “Why would you wear a bikini to a wedding? You’re not at a beach and you are the mother of the groom.”
