What??...Same color of dress, the same with table cloth and curtains....

LOL..that has happened to me before. Another person was wearing the same shirt as me and it was so embarrassing. I dare not look LOL. I think if it were me, I'd go home too and change. Or go to another place where there's no similarity, LOL.

lol =D I have seen one example on tv, or rather it's the interview of a local celebrity.. SHe been asked the question like here, and her reply is "I will walk up to her, shake her hand and say, GOod taste.." haha =D See the solution?? COmplimenting the other party, is just like complimenting oneself too, and so both parties need not feel awkward at all.. haha =D BUt if it looks like a table cloth or curtain, i guess one cant help it, for we wont know their curtains will look like what i'm wearing!! hehe

I wouldn't care. :-)

It is quite embarrassing for me to wear the same design and color as the tablecloth or curtain. It is alright to have the same color but if the same design then that is most embarrassing. At any rate, I think I would go home and change my dress if the party if a very formal one and would involve people that are not my close acquaintance. If my home is very far from the place of party, then I would rather not attend that party anymore. However if all the people around the party are close friends and relatives then maybe I will just make fun of that embarrassing situation instead of taking it too seriously.

I think it is really embarrassing to bump in another person in a party, wearing the same dress, the same style and the same color. Being in the same room with this girl might be very irritating, especially if the dress looked better on her than on us. But I still think that going home and change clothes is a bit silly and unwise because we would just wasting our time, especially if the venue is far from our house. I would suggest you to bring emergency modification tools like, safety pin and brooches. With the safety pins you can shorten your dress or change the style of your dress with making simple ruffle. And brooches to put some accent which can deflect the attention from the style of the dress. I think it would be great too, if you have fancy scarf or shawl you can pinned on your dress as if it is a part of the style. I know it sounds hassle, but I think it is better than looking like a identical twin with other girl. Isn't it?

That situation is kinda embarassing.It happened to me while walking on the street..I come across a girl wearing totally same t shirt as mine..She looked irritated with eyebrows raised ..totally a bad day for her while I just kept on laughing coz of shame..wooz

I would at least attempt to make a joke out of the incident. If the other person wearing the same dress as you is willing, it might turn into a fun night.

It depends ,if I was close to my home I would probably go home and change because that is hwo much I hate looking like someone else however if I was not close to home I guess I would have to stay and endure the toryure of looking like someone else. Granted thouh I have not encountered that situation ever because I often choose my clothes carefully .Someone may have one particular item of my attire like my shoes or my shirt but not the entire attire

if that happen to me i think i would return to home to change my clothes. i do not like to be ridicule and even though i am good at carrying myself i would not mingle to enjoy the party when other people are looking at me staring for having the same dress.

of course, if my home is near i would change my clothes then if i am very far i would slightly hide so that it is less noticeable.

of course, if my home is near i would change my clothes then if i am very far i would slightly hide so that it is less noticeable.

lol,,this is so funny..if i were on the same situation i would go back to my home and replace my dress s i do not like to be the object of laughter and staring eyes. i am very weak on it and i would instead walk out of the place rather than feel embarrass.

Well, it's going to be a case of "Who wears it better?" No, I am not going to hide but I am going to flaunt and be more visible so people will see who is wearing the dress better. That is more important. So what if she is wearing the same dress as I? Is she more beautiful? Does she look smarter? Did she accessorize properly? All these will make a lot of difference and I am sure that the difference will show.

i think i wouldnt go home. it's not like everybody knows me there. and if they noticed, the hell i care.. BUT if our house is really near, then why not change? it depends on the situation. well, it's just a one night party, better stay at the party and have fun. anyway you will forget everything when you're drunk~ ^^

I would tell the other person that she looked lovely and that she had very good taste. I think the likelihood of dress matching curtains or tablecloth is pretty rare as these days the fabrics are quite different...unless someone cut up their curtains to make a dress. I still think it would be a rare co-incidence.

I have lived this exact situation! Years ago I was to attend a work Christmas Party which was to be held in a posh hotel. I was so looking forward to going and decided to put this dress in lay by I had my eye on; it was too expensive for me but I decided I just had to have for this special night. It took ages to pay it off and I was so excited when I picked it up, took it home and showed it off to my room mate who was equally impressed. When the night of the party arrived I got all dressed up in my new dress and everything was perfect, hair make up, shoes, the lot! I had arranged for a cab to pick me up from mu house with all my friends in it and I could not wait for them to see my new dress until the cab arrived the door opened and there she was...My friend wearing the identical dress! My heart sank and I wanted to cry but I laughed instead, went to the party and my friend and I had our photo taken together...Ouch...I can still feel the disappointment!

I'll choose to go home and look for another dress and if I could not find one that can replace it the nearest boutique can surely help me :-)

Bumping into another with the same dress is alright with me. I would stay and just enjoy the party. On the other hand, if my dress is similar to the table cloth, i would definitely go home and change coz for me that is totally embarrassing. Lol..

I hope that won't happen to me but if it doed then maybe i have to go home to change clothes or not attend the party anymore. Actually that is the first thing i consider when buying clothes for a party. That is why i see to it that i buy in boutiques where i think no one from among the invitees go to buy clothes. It is also good to have your favorite dressmaker do your clothes but sometimes RTWs are better.

I'm not superfical like that. I know that there is going to be someone out there that has the same cloths I do. It doesn't seem to bother me one little bit what I have on. As long as it fits, its confertable, and I'm not miserable I could care less. So what if I have the same color as a table cloth? I just blend in more. Besides being in a wheelchair makes me stick out like a sore thumb, so I'm used to it. no big deal.
