DRESSES AND OUTFITS FOR WEDDINGS

DRESSES AND OUTFITS FOR WEDDINGS – FIND YOUR LOOK AS A GUEST

As a wedding guest, your outfit should feel a little special while still being comfortable enough to wear throughout a long day. When choosing what to wear to a wedding, consider the season, venue and any dress code. At BON’A PARTE, you can explore dresses for weddings in different lengths, fits, colours and prints and find a look that suits you and the occasion.

WHAT SHOULD YOU WEAR AS A WEDDING GUEST?

What should you wear as a wedding guest? The invitation is a good place to start. If a dress code is specified, it can help guide your choice. Otherwise, consider whether the wedding is being held in a garden, at a hotel or in a more formal setting.

A midi dress is a versatile choice for many weddings, while a long dress can create a more elegant and formal look. If you prefer something other than a dress, elegant trousers can be styled with a feminine blouse and perhaps a blazer. This makes it easy to find a wedding outfit that suits the setting and feels natural to you.

WHICH DRESS IS RIGHT FOR A LATE-SUMMER OR AUTUMN WEDDING?

If you are considering which dress to wear to an autumn wedding, it is worth thinking about layers and materials. A midi or long dress in a slightly heavier or softer fabric can be a good starting point as temperatures begin to drop.

Add a blazer, cardigan or lightweight jacket that you can take off or put on throughout the day. This makes it easier to adapt your outfit to both the weather and the different parts of the wedding.

WHICH COLOURS CAN YOU WEAR TO A WEDDING?

Colour is an easy way to add personality to your wedding guest look. In spring and summer, blue, pink, green shades and delicate floral prints can create a light look. For late-summer and autumn weddings, burgundy, darker blues, brown, green and muted pink shades work beautifully with the season.

A printed dress can be a natural focal point and styled with simpler accessories. If you prefer a plain dress, use your bag, shoes and jewellery to add contrast or bring the colours of your look together. It is also a good idea to consider the invitation and the style of the wedding when choosing your colour.

FIND A FIT YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE IN

The right dress for a wedding is not just about colour and length. Fit also matters when your dress needs to take you comfortably from the first hours of the day to the last dance.

An A-line dress has a flowing shape and offers plenty of freedom of movement, while a wrap dress can help define the waist. A midi dress is easy to style for different types of weddings, while a long dress can enhance a more formal look. Above all, choose a style that allows you to move, sit and dance comfortably.

FROM CEREMONY TO RECEPTION AND PARTY

The same outfit can easily take you through the entire wedding day. Small styling changes can adapt your look for the ceremony, reception, dinner and party:

• Wear a blazer or cardigan as an extra layer during the ceremony or when it gets cooler.

• Choose shoes that suit both the venue and the many hours you will be wearing them.

• Add character to a simple dress with jewellery or an elegant bag.

• Pair a patterned dress with simpler accessories for a harmonious look.

This means you do not need different outfits for each part of the day but can create one look that works from start to finish.

Whether you prefer a classic midi dress, an elegant long dress, feminine prints or a combination of trousers and a blouse, there are plenty of ways to create your personal wedding guest look. Explore the BON’A PARTE collection and find dresses and styles that suit the occasion, the season and you.
