In a recent wedding that took place in Copenhagen, a bride named Pernille Rosenkilde became the center of controversy due to her unique wedding dress.

Pernille, a Danish designer, wore a striking outfit that featured a see-through skirt, revealing her underwear.

This choice sparked significant backlash on social media.

Many users labeled it as inappropriate for a wedding, especially in a church setting.

The wedding ceremony was held at the beautiful Grundtvig Church, surrounded by close family and friends.

Pernille shared photos from her big day on Instagram, expecting positive reactions.

Instead, she faced a wave of negative comments criticizing her choice of attire.

Many commenters felt that the dress was not suitable for a wedding venue, particularly one as sacred as a church.

One user expressed outrage, saying, “What a great way to ask the Lord for a blessed marriage by showing up in his holy place half naked!”

This sentiment echoed the thoughts of numerous others who believed that the dress lacked respect for the setting.

Despite the criticism, Pernille stood by her wedding dress.

She explained in an interview that she loves wearing feathers and sheer materials.

“I love wearing feathers and see-through fabrics,” she explained to Vogue Scandinavia.

“But I also wanted the dress to be elegant, classy and a bit sexy.”

The dress itself was a combination of a feathered top and a flowing, transparent silk skirt.

This gave her an ethereal look, but it also left little to the imagination.

While some found her outfit beautiful and original, others were quick to label it as the “worst wedding dress ever.”

“For me, one of the most important things in my work as an influencer, stylist, and designer is to bring joy, humor, and a playful and fun approach to dressing,” she said.

Social media reactions

Many people voiced their disapproval on Instagram, with some commenters saying the dress was “shameless” and not appropriate for a church setting.

The negative comments reflected a generational divide, as older users were more likely to express strong opinions against the outfit.

This is partly due to Denmark’s ties to the Evangelical Lutheran Church.

These ties influence social norms and expectations around weddings.

On the other hand, Pernille also received support from younger fans who admired her bold fashion statement.

Many defended her choice, arguing that everyone should be able to express themselves freely, especially on their wedding day.

One supporter said: Stop projecting your own ideas of religion and marriage onto others. Not everyone feels the need to ‘ask the Lord for his blessing.’

The second wrote: Not clutching my pearls as I’m an atheist, but the dress is ugly af.

The third said: Top half looks like a goosebutt, lower half like she literally forgot to put the actual skirt on.

In Denmark, about 75% of people are part of the “Folkekirken,” or People’s Church, which is a branch of the Evangelical Lutheran Church.

This religion is officially recognized in the Danish constitution.

Older generations tend to be more religious. In the 1990s, nearly 90% of people attended the Church of Denmark.

This helps explain why some people reacted strongly to Pernille’s wedding dress on social media.

A recent study found that while many people identify as Christian, only one in fifty actually goes to church services.

This shows that for many, being part of the church is more about national identity than deep spiritual beliefs.

Over the last 20 years, the number of people who actively practice Christianity has dropped by 28%, even as the population has grown.

Younger people, like those who follow Pernille’s fashion, are less likely to adhere to traditional religious views.

They are usually less offended by her dress choice.
