If you're that kind of person, the Instagram post of your proposal is one of the most important Instagram posts of your life. Couples go to great lengths to create the perfect setting for the perfect pic-- the environment, the angle, and of course, the outfits. I personally never thought about what I'd like to be wearing if I got proposed to, but I know a lot of people do. It's a big moment, and it's understandable that you'd want to be looking your best for it. It's a memory that you're going to think back on for the rest of your life, and one that all of your friends and family will want to see pictures of.

That's why this story sparked such a heated discussion on Twitter recently-- it fanned the flames of relationship discourse and brought out some of the internet's most guns-a-blazin' pundits. See what all the fuss is about below.
