Based on a true story! Niall has the dress in his wardrobe and saw around 8 weeks after the breakup. It was a whits dress. And the line “the one in the picture”, is based on the fact that, the photo was the other persons phone wallpaper!💔
The fact that this song is a true story just makes me want to cry. We just sometimes brush it off and that it's just his life and we should respect his songs and the story behind it, but when he tells you the story and you come back and listen to the song your like "oh god it's totally connected" and you feel like you were there for him when it all happened. This is the beauty of Niall and his songs. He feels comfortable enough to tell us that and I just love him for that.
Jannah Khaled there was a live of his where he explained all the songs on HBW and he had said that Dress was about a dress of a person who he was with and after 8 weeks he went back to his wardrobe and saw a white dress of that persons and it was also in the background picture on that persons phone. He said he looked at and thought about throwing it out but didn’t want to because he wasn’t ready to. I’ll give you the links to the livestream and the part where he explains the song.
Niall's type of music has its different refreshing and the fuck, I don't know, it is just so good that makes me cry and happy at the same time. It feels like you will always find the beautiful side of life.
OK but this song makes me feel like it’s continue of black and white / in black-and-white he was talking about the getting married to someone and then in this song he’s telling that he don’t want to speed it up and even though he don’t wants it he’s ready to let her put her dress away (take a break/time) and he will wait for her .so then he’ll tell her that he’s sorry and then they’re gonna get married or continue relationship/ and like she’s gonna put her dress on Maybe.???🤷🏼♀️ idk buutt this song should’ve been in album tho....
He actually said on an instagram live that the song talks about a dress his ex girlfriend left at his house after they broke up. The dress was there for a long time and it has been hard for him to make the decision to 'put her dress away'
ugh niall never did a bad song! i love all of the unreleased songs damn they're sooo good! &somehow more personal idk why he wouldn't just give it to us...
I have known about dress and nothing for a while now, but heard them for the first time today....btw pure love and respect for niall, he is fooking best.💝
Okay why is it that his unreleased songs are some of the best songs he has?? Like I love Niall and all of his music but dress, champagne lovers, nothing, etc. are so good!! 😭😭
@@veebee3919 But ngl it is a very good song just clearing it up. Target and a Japanese company asked him for two bonus tracks and this two songs were going to be in the entire track list but instead he took them and made them bonus tracks
@@kb-no7px yes I agree it's an amazing song! That sucks because where I live, we don't have target, so I couldn't get the cd with the bonus tracks. I wish he could have kept them on the regular tracklist 😢😢
@@veebee3919 Me too but he needed to put some songs as the bonus tracks asap because he was ready to ship them out to stores so he preferred to do that than spend more time making new songs
I love this song. Its not fair on niall. He chooses not to release the song but it gets leaked. It's a really good song though. I don't know why he decided not to release it but I love it.
Niall is Irish!! I love it to. Our traditional music here in Newfoundland, Canada has always been similar to it. An Irish accent I like, but ours not so much lol
