Spring is swiftly approaching and that means so are those wedding invites. As we know, these events are notoriously expensive – even if you are just one of the guests. If you factor things in like transportation, hotels, and a gift, everything certainly adds up. So after calculating all of the aforementioned, you might be wondering what’s left to spend on an outfit. At any wedding, there is bound to be a bunch of photos and videos taken so you want to look good and feel good in whatever you wear. My solution? Opt for something timeless. Rather than something avant garde or over-the-top, a dress that is polished and chic can be worn on more than one occasion. This way, you are getting more bang for your buck and you can feel less guilty of spending a little bit more to look your best. And there is no better time than now to start early! Take this opportunity to stock up on a few minimal wedding guest dresses so you can wear them now and for future events to come.
Chic Wedding Guest Dresses for Every Type of Ceremony
The LBD
No matter what the occasion may be, my foolproof option for a formal outing will always be an LBD. One can always rely on a black ensemble to be classic and flattering. If you are the type to find a black dress boring, you can actually use the blank canvas as an opportunity to play around with more flashy accessories.
Slip Dress
Over the years, the slip dress has really gained notoriety. I truly believe iot is a style that will never go away. Typically in a satin or silk fabrication, this style screams feminine luxe. Plus, a slip dress makes for one of the best wedding guest dresses because it can be styled for both a casual ceremony to a more formal one.
Shirt Dress
Much like the button up is seen as a wardrobe staple, I would consider the shirt dress to be in the same category. This styles evolved over the years and now comes in all shapes and sizes. Of course, just avoid white shirt dresses when it comes to getting ready for a wedding.
Lace
Weddings are all about celebrating love and there is nothing more romantic than a little bit of lace. The beauty about this fabrication is that it makes any silhouette feel classy and timeless. From a lace adorned mini dress to a lace gown, I promise you will find multiple occasions to rock your lace dress to.
Bodycon Maxi
Just to be safe, I always recommend having at least one black tie option on hand. For something that will turn heads, look no further than a bodycon maxi. The key is to find one that fits like a glove and hugs your curves in all of the right places. Again, black is always a no-brainer but feel free to branch out to more adventurous colorways.
