Quite the opposite. I’d bet it was an aggressive move that had been planned for quite some time. Her NOT shopping for a dress in the preceding weeks/months allowed her to show everybody just how little she cared about the wedding, how unimportant the bride and groom were to her. Just grabbing “whatever” from the closet the day of served two purposes. 1) Reinforcing how insignificant the whole thing was to her. 2) It got her the attention she wanted. She showed up in a dress that didn’t fit the color scheme (because no one’s going to tell her what to do), stood out from everyone else (a way to thumb her nose at the happy couple both on the day of and in perpetuity in the pictures), and because it was black, like one would wear to a funeral, it made clear how she felt about this wedding to everyone in attendance. I’d bet good money that black dress in her closet had been picked out in her mind from the very beginning.
Am I right,
