A photo of Sydney Sweeney has sparked a heated debate about appropriate wedding attire.
But the dress is only one of the reasons people are talking.

The 27-year-old Euphoria and The White Lotus actress called off her marriage just before being spotted with actor Glen Powell at the ceremony, which echoes their roles in the 2023 film Anyone But You.
Sweeney recently attended the wedding of Glen Powell’s sister, Leslie Powell, in Texas, wearing a light blue corset-style gown by V. Chapman
The dress featured a fitted bodice and a ruffled maxi skirt.
Notably, the bridesmaids also wore light blue dresses, which led some to speculate that Sweeney may have had a role in the wedding party.
Her choice of attire sparked some online debate about wedding guest etiquette.
A few commenters argued that her light blue dress was too close to white and risked upstaging the bride, while others defended it as a tasteful and seasonally appropriate choice.
News broke around the same time that Sweeney had called off her engagement to Jonathan Davino
Reportedly, she chose to end the relationship to focus on her growing career, feeling that she wasn’t ready to settle down.
The timing—paired with her public appearance at a wedding with Glen Powell—sparked fresh speculation about the nature of their relationship, especially given their chemistry in the 2023 romantic comedy Anyone But You.
In the film, Sweeney and Powell played reluctant partners attending a destination wedding together while pretending to be a couple.
Naturally, the internet drew comparisons between fiction and reality.
Attending a real-life wedding shortly after ending an engagement, and doing so with the same co-star she shared such on-screen tension with, made for an irresistible headline.
Those close to the actors have been quick to downplay any romance rumors
Reports clarified that Sweeney had RSVP’d to the wedding months in advance and attended with a close friend, not Powell.
His mother even commented on the situation, saying Sweeney is simply a good friend of the family and that there’s nothing more to it.
In the end, Sydney Sweeney’s light blue dress, the timing of her personal life shift, and the Anything But You parallels made for an undeniably compelling pop culture moment.
It’s up to fans whether they want to read into it or not.
