The friend of a wedding guest took to Facebook to detail her pal's agony at a wedding and all over a dress.. (the one pictured above) She wrote: "She says she got treated rudely by other women at the wedding who saw her as a target for wearing this dress. A woman came up behind her and slapped her on the bum and said it was on a dare from a group of other women who were watching and snickering. "Someone else seemingly purposely spilt a beer on her.
