Katie’s top wedding guest dress picks
Our final wedding fashion article has arrived! I’ve had lots of fun with this series of entries but it’s time to get back to the fashion basics. Before I close out the series, I wanted to address the most important people at a wedding…the GUESTS!
As wedding guest etiquette continues to shape and shift, it gets harder for attendees to distinguish between an acceptable ensemble and an absolute fashion don’t. If you happen to be asking yourself, “What in the hell do I wear?”…you’ve come to the right place! I have likely attended more weddings in the past few years than most people will go to in their lifetime. I’ve definitely witnessed the do’s and don’ts of wedding guest fashions. Read on to see my top wedding guest dress picks that will ensure you’re all set for the big day…even if it’s not your own!
My weekly fashion advice: Unless you are a bridesmaid or MOH and the bride specifically asks you to, DO NOT wear a white dress or anything that could under any circumstances be mistaken for a wedding dress. Got it?? Good!
“Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.”
—Yves Saint Laurent
