Would you tell them the truth?

Gee Mummymo' That's a touchy one. I would always tell the truth or not speak at all.I might try to insert a little humor if possible.I would probably would say, "Gee Susie,You are so georgous but that dress shows too much of that georgous you" I wouldn't say"Susie that dress makes you look like a hooker.Are you looking to change professions?" or I'd say "Susie you have such a cute shape and that dress is not bringing out your best" "I noticed blue looks so much nicer on you.It makes your eyes pop!" But again I would never lie to a friend and I would hope they would be honest with me. R

Well I used to do this for my mum when I lived at home, she could tell by my face straight away if what she was wearing suited her or not! So I couldn't lie and as it was my mum I wouldn't. I love red and black on ladies and would I definitely say if my friend asked for my honest opinion if it suited them or not. My housemate sometimes asks for my opinion on what he is wearing. I don't mince my words with him, some people you have to be 'sensitive' to and you obviously know if you can be softly softly or whether you can be brutally frank or betty!

I would tell my friend that the outfit, although it is nice, was not the most flattering outfit I had seen her wear. That would be the nicest way I could think to put it without hurting her feelings.

Honesty is the best policy. Tactfullness helps a lot in these situations as well. I have one friend that I'd say right out, "oh, honey, no no no!" but with most I would be careful how I worded it.

Hi mummymo! I would be honest to my friend...tell her that the outfit she's wearing does not suit her at all. But of course, I will be saying it as politely as I could and show her that I just care. I want to be honest with her but not hurt her feelings. Just how I want her to be honest with me too. Have a nice day!

Maybe it's my age (26), or my friends, but we have no problem telling each other if something looks goofy on each other. I'm pretty eccentric, and get really carried away with dressing and accessorizing myself with bizarre things. I don't care what the world at large thinks, but I do appreciate a friend's opinion. Most times, I know when something isn't working for me, or I have doubts, so I'm not upset by the insane laughter that I get when I put something on that isn't flattering. I'm vain, but it's just clothing. My advice would be to tell your friend that she is beautiful, but assertively tell her that she needs to change. Don't act like it's a big deal, because it isn't. If you told her she was a horrible person, that would be a big deal Dressing up friends is fun!

I would be honest in the nicest way possible , I would say something like that's nice but you really suit the blue or the long one better or something like that , but to be honest I would only say it if she had something else to wear , you know me I just cant hurt anyone I find it really hard . I'm an auld softy lol xx

If she´s your best friend I would tell her. In a very diplomatic way though. I would emphasize on the fact that something else would look better on her, without telling her bluntly that what she´s wearing doesn´t suit her at all. No need to hurt people´s feelings.

I would tll her the Truth as I would not want her to look a fool while she is out. But I would put it over as nice as Possible so that I do not hurt her or at least try not to hurt her.

As she did ask for your opinion I would give it at gently as possible. There is no need to hurt her feeling so I might tell that she looked beautiful in another outfit that I had seen her in. If she had not asked then I wouldn't offer any opinion.

I would probably have to be tactfully honest and possibly steer her to a different outfit, I know she would understand

i would just explain to her that the outfit doesnt suit her and tell her i want her to look nice and just hope for the best that she doesnt easily offended. i would say it nicely so she wont get the impression i am being nasty towards her style

always be truthful, ive learned that now, ive always sugar coat until i tried being 100% truthful. best friends are always open to critism, itll show how strong your relationship is past just the "pretty" parts. i met a girl at the start of the year, ive been truthful to her and in like 4months, we are best of friends and perhaps forever

I would definitely tell her and I do not want my bestfriend to be embarassed in fron of many and other people.If I don't do this, then i'm not a friend at all. But I would be telling this in a nice way.This is also the way i want my friends to do to me.

I would tell her the truth in the best way possible. if it is a matter of perspective and she does not like to change it, I would let her have her way, but if she realises that there is some problem, then I will have saved her from humiliation in a public place.

if you are really sure that the outfit does not suit her, don't just come out and say it, because that might really upset her or affect her future confidence. It would be a lot better to say, oh, what about wearing x,y,z instead or I'm not sure that outfit would be the right one tonight.. try to be as kind as possible

What's wrong with just being honest? Unless you know that she will get all upset and start tearing, I would be honest. You wouldn't want her to make an embarrassment of herself, would you? :P

If the outfit does not suit her then i'd tell her. Shes my best friend and I wouldn't want her to make a fool out of herself and it's as simple as that.

I wouldnt even hesitate to be honest with her.. depending on what kind of person she is, i would make sure i tell her in the right way. Meaning if shes a highly sensitive kinda person, i will tell her that she looks ok but if she wants to make an impression she will have to look better than just ok.. so i suggest we both take a look in her closet and pick out the right outfit (which of course would be alot of fun!).
