No. The names of parts of speech (noun, verb, adjective, adverb, preposition, ...) apply to only one word at a time. A group of two or more words cannot be any of those things.
'dress' is a noun. 'white' is an adjective. And so on.
'wearing a white dress' is a participle clause.

What on earth makes you think it might be a preposition (or preposition phrase)?
