How to dress stylishly for wedding guests?

Choosing the right wedding dress is one of the prerequisites for etiquette, which must be observed by every guest. A wedding event is quite demanding for this kind of things, and therefore, before choosing clothes for yourself, it is worth studying the basic principles of stylish dressing for a guest going to a wedding.

The priority rule for choosing the right clothes is the type of wedding. The image of the guest will also depend on whether it is traditional or thematic. If the spouses have chosen a specific style for their celebration, you need to take into account their wishes and select clothes that can harmoniously fit into the general concept of the style. This can be expressed both in the color of the clothes, and in its correspondence to a certain image.

It is also important to take into account the degree of formality of the celebration. For example, wedding celebrations held in the morning are considered less formal. Therefore, the requirements for such a dress code are not particularly strict. For such celebrations, sometimes a laconic dress, trousers with a beautiful shirt can be suitable. When the wedding is more formal and takes place in a restaurant setting, evening dresses are welcome in addition to cocktail and traditional classics. Here it is already worth paying more attention to the selection of jewelry and the status of clothing.

Regardless of the formality of the wedding, the female bow of the guest should exude femininity. However, under no condition, the guest should not distract the attention of those present from the bride with her appearance. That's why:

• undesirable white color and excessive creativity;
• a black dress can only be worn for a formal event;
• the best dress will be the option in pastel colors;

• the dress may have a neckline, but a scattering of rhinestones and sequins, as well as sequins are excluded;
• fluffy skirts and long lengths are excluded, and even more so a train;

• it is better to focus on the status of the fabric while keeping the model laconic;
• high-waisted options are undesirable, especially for young guests.

In addition, you need to take into account the nuances of makeup: it should not be vulgar and bright. The best clothing option is a mid-length dress. A mini on the background of the bride will look ugly and defiant.

If the wedding takes place in a formal manner, you can wear a suit. However, this option is suitable for the woman or the mother of the groom (bride), but a girl going to her friend's wedding should still choose a dress. At the same time, the appearance of the guest will be more elegant if the color of the clothes is monochromatic. It is better to exclude polka dots, stripes right away: except for ripples, they will not stand out at the wedding, such an image is doomed to a fashionable failure.

A male guest, going to a wedding, can wear a three-piece suit. This will be the best option or a win-win solution, since the classic look always looks perfect and allows you to harmoniously fit into the overall atmosphere. However, for men, there are several recommendations for choosing clothes:

• it is undesirable to wear a suit in the same color as the groom's (it is worth asking in advance about the chosen option from the future newlywed);
• A light-colored suit will look more beautiful on the guest, pastel colors will also allow you to look stylish and sophisticated;

• options in a cage, jeans or shirts reminiscent of a cowboy theme are strictly prohibited;
• extravagant costumes that attract the attention of others are not suitable even for informal celebrations;
• coming with a companion, a man should choose clothes in such a way that the couple looks around harmoniously together.

Often the weather conditions and the time of the year become a problem in choosing clothes for a wedding. This will be reflected in the thickness of the fabric, its color and texture, as well as the style of clothing and the choice of accessories for it. In order to dress stylishly for a wedding and not look like a black sheep, you can view models from fashion shows, choose trendy colors of clothes and a cut. As for the seasonality, then, for example, if a woman is invited to a wedding in winter, the length of the skirt should not be short.

The fabric for a wedding dress in the cold season can be dense. Woolen and semi-woolen will do.

For men or guys, you can warm yourself with a jumper, wearing it over a shirt without a tie. In addition, a vest will also be excellent insulation. While a man is on the street, his stylish masculine look can be complemented by an elegant coat.

The dress of a guest for a wedding in spring or autumn can consist of a jacket and a skirt, a girl will look beautiful in a knee-length dress, complementing her bow with ankle boots or boots. The boot can be either narrow or loose. As for the male look, for spring or autumn, you can use a classic-type suit, decorating it with a bright tie. Usually looks good on both a guy and a mature man, a set in a muted blue, pistachio color.

The best materials for summer are natural fabrics. Both women and men are allowed to experiment with different outfits in the summer. There can be many options: for the beautiful half of humanity, these are cocktail dresses, strict classics, and even feminine sundresses. For male guests, a lot will depend on the degree of convenience. The main thing is that it is not hot, and that the clothes do not hinder movement.

Often the way out of the situation is a certain idea of ​​clothing that the bride and groom have. For example, often today girlfriends wear dresses of the same color or style, which helps the guest when she goes to her friend's wedding. The choice of color almost always plays a big role because, say, if the outfits of the young people are made in a white and red color combination, a juicy green dress of a friend or a friend's suit of a similar color will look in this case extremely inappropriate and ugly.

It is advisable for friends and witnesses to discuss the colors of the clothes and their style in advance, agreeing even the color solutions of the accessories. This will allow you to look harmoniously next to the newlyweds, as well as feel your preparedness for such an important event. Dressing beautifully and appropriate to the occasion, you thereby express your respect to loved ones who have decided to combine their destinies into one. Without interrupting the outfits of the bride and groom, the understanding is demonstrated that they are the main ones at the wedding. Excluded are colorful handbags, over the knee boots for women, as well as sweaters for a jacket and white socks.
