What to Wear to Fall & Winter Weddings
Dressing for a fall or winter wedding is all about balancing the dress code with the weather. Richer fabrics like velvet, satin and crepe all feel right for the season, while long sleeves, higher necklines and full-length hemlines offer more coverage and polish.
Color stories are another easy way to make your look feel seasonal. This season, the fashion crowd is obsessed with rich neutrals like chocolate brown and burgundy plum. Other popular wedding guest shades that feel seasonally appropriate include emerald, navy, deep reds, and neutrals like black or taupe. But, ultimately, it’s whatever you feel your best in–as long as it’s not white or cream! But you knew that already.
For black-tie and formal weddings, look for floor-length gowns and elevated fabrics that feel polished even without styling. And if the ceremony is outdoors this fall, don’t forget a coat, wrap or layer that works with your dress instead of covering it up.
Ultimately, the best wedding guest dresses are the ones that fit the dress code, feel comfortable for long receptions, and ideally something you’d wear again, and won’t break the bank. Luckily, that’s exactly what we found, ahead.
