WEDDING GUEST STYLE GUIDE

Be inspired by our top ten wedding guest dresses, perfect for any style of occasion and hopefully the answer of the eternal ‘what to wear’ question that plagues us all. Whether the dress code is Black Tie, Cocktail, Garden chic or Beach glamour.

Black Tie

Think old Hollywood glamour for a black tie wedding. Halston Heritage, synonymous with chic glam, is an ideal choice for those attending a black tie event where formal cocktail dresses, full length gowns and tuxedos are fitting. For a shorter length, try Australian design duo Camilla & Marc’s ultra feminine take on the oriental-style cut using a pastel palette.

Luxe Buy: J. Mendel Fur and Tulle Bolero & Ruched Jersey Gown

Cocktail

A cocktail wedding invites semi-formal attire where ladies don glam frocks that are shorter (and can be a little more casual), than their black tie counterpart. Keep it sophisticated with Karla Spetic or Aminaka Wilmont.

Garden

Lace and floral prints encapsulate perfect garden wedding attire. Showcase elegance by invoking the 1950s with a dress by Review, keep it minimal with the clean-cut Karla Spetic or slip into a vintage-style Alannah Hill frock.

Beach

Beachside weddings lend themselves to a more casual style to complement the relaxed nature of the ceremony. The whimsical quality of Fleur Wood’s designs makes this dress a fail-safe option while the ruffles on this Kuku piece are beautifully feminine. Complete your ensemble with these gorgeous Valentino espadrilles.
