If you received a bright card with a wedding invitation inside, then one of the first questions that comes to mind is: what to wear? Of course, it is easier for guests to buy an outfit than for a bride. However, buying a dress for such a solemn occasion takes a lot of effort and time. We offer you some recommendations on how to choose a dress for wedding guests.
Color solution
There are two main taboos in wedding fashion: white and black dresses. Snow-white attire is the prerogative of the bride. When choosing a dress in the same color, you run the risk of merging into a single white spot with the hostess of the evening and drawing some of the attention to yourself.
We also do not recommend going to extremes and choosing dark shades. Black is a classic color for evening wear, but a mourning wedding guest dress can be seen as disrespectful to the newlyweds.
The most suitable colors are: turquoise, gold, silver, olive, pink, lilac, beige. Give backpreference for light and pastel colors, because they suit absolutely everyone and are incredibly refreshing. However, be careful with shades of champagne and ivory. Next to the white dress of the bride, your outfit may seem dirty and untidy. Wedding dresses for guests can be any color, so first of all, start from your own preferences.
Style and fit
It is difficult to single out specific rules in this matter. Choose models according to your taste and suitable for you. Take the features of your own figure as a basis. However, remember that a dress that is too short, as well as an outfit with a frank neckline, will look vulgar and out of place. The maximum length is also not very suitable for a wedding celebration. A floor-length dress looks great on the red carpet or a social event, but on a holiday it will attract unnecessary attention and prevent you from moving around. The ideal length is to the knees or just below.
A dress for wedding guests should not have a train, as this is an attribute of the bride's attire. Let's say an asymmetrical bottom with an elongated back of the skirt. You can also choose models with draping at the hips to add a feminine figure.
The presence of rhinestones, beads and flowers is not forbidden, because these are elements of evening fashion. However, if you plan to complement the look with jewelry, then it is better to choose a dress with a minimum of decor.
Romantic and strict are dresses for guests. A photothe models presented in the article demonstrate a variety of styles, textures, fabrics and decorations. But remember that the main queen of the holiday is the bride, and guests should be more modest in their choice of outfits.
Themed party is the new trend
Today, more and more newlyweds prefer to arrange a wedding in a certain style. Some even choose the color scheme of the holiday. If you are invited to such an unusual party, then ask the bride and groom for more details about the dress code requirements.
For example, if the entire wedding should be decorated in purple tones, then color requirements are put forward for the guests' outfits. Gangster-inspired wedding guest dress can be black and long, and don't forget about matching makeup and accessories. A disco-themed holiday means a riot of colors, fluffy skirts, bold outfits for guests. Do not leave the choice and purchase of a wedding dress for the last day. Evaluate critically your figure and also consider in detail the range of stores. The guest's dress should be modest, but moderately solemn.
