WEDDING SEASON: WHAT TO WEAR, WHERE
So, the invitations to far flung wedding destinations have flooded your inbox, and you’ve RSVP’d ‘YES!’ in excitement… what next? The outfits, of course! Whether your invite states a ‘European Chic’ dress code or ‘Garden Party Elegance’, don’t fret, we’ve got something for every kind of celebration, wherever it might be. Consider this your ultimate guide to being the best-dressed guest.
THE GLITZ & GLAMOR WEDDING
We all have that one friend who doesn’t do things by halves. And when those friends get married, you know you’re in for one helluva lavish affair! This calls for a dress that brings the drama. A formal evening dress should be long and a little bit extravagant, with maximum impact. Fishtail silhouettes, modest trains, intricate beading or satin fabrics will all help hit the mark. Equally, ensure that your hair and makeup fall in line. An immaculate sleek up-do or rouge lip can really up the anté.
THE BOTANICAL GARDEN WEDDING
Forget catching the bouquet this wedding season, the style set are more interested in wearing their flowers. From ditsy daisy prints, to big bold blooms, florals are the go-to choice of print to complement the surroundings of an outdoor garden wedding. If pattern isn’t your thing, try 3D flower earrings or appliqué clutches instead for a subtle nod to mother nature’s offerings (and the biggest trend of summer). For the finishing touch, a pair of chic sunglasses will complete the look.
THE EUROPEAN CHIC WEDDING
Fairytale weddings nestled in the hotspots of Europe such as Italy, France and Spain, deserve an uber-chic outfit to match. But why wear a dress? Bear with us on this one… we believe that a sharp, structured suit in a statement-making shade can be an edgy alternative to your usual go-to dress. We love a flash of décolletage for a sexy finish and an on-trend corsage worn as a choker will elevate the whole look. Not convinced? If you prefer to stick with a dress, and can get away with a short style, we love these full-on feminine silhouettes with intricate lace and bodice detail.
THE BAREFOOT BEACH WEDDING
If you’re lucky enough to be jetting off to an exotic wedding location, the dress code may have left you in a spin. Often, beach weddings are much more relaxed than traditional ceremonies so that means your outfit can be too. Opt for lightweight fabrics, subtle cut-outs and a tropical color palette to embrace the laid back vibe of the beach. Feeling bold? Dip into palm prints and jungle blooms to really make a statement. When it comes to accessorizing, indulge in shell jewelry, raffia touches and wedges or flat sandals if you’re on sandy shores. Complete your bohemian mood with loose hair in waves, sunkissed bronzer and plenty of dewy highlighter.
