An excuse to get all dressed up? Say less. Wedding season is here and we're SO ready for it. We know it can be difficult trying to find a wedding guest dress that ticks all the boxes (especially if the bride and groom have a dress code). One bride and groom may have no preference at all and another may want everyone wearing the same color scheme, so be sure to check the invite for any outfit info! Formal wedding guest dresses range from bold and bright patterns to basic shades and silhouettes, and finding the middle ground can be tricky. But, if we can give you one golden rule for wedding guest attire; keep it simple and elegant. You’ll save yourself a lot of stress by choosing a look that’s timeless and chic (bonus points for comfort!). If you're looking for ‘black tie wedding guest dresses’ you should be looking for something elevated and classic.
