The Best Summer Wedding Guest Trends of 2024

Feature: Quick Read
Words by Monikh Dale

When it comes to wedding guest attire, the rules have evolved. Gone are the days when ‘black tie’, ‘semi-formal’, or ‘casual’ codes dictated what attendees should wear. Instead, a new wave of fashion-forward thinking has emerged, encouraging wedding-goers to dress according to the latest trends. In doing so, your guest wardrobe can be infused with modern flair and make a chic statement, no matter the setting. Here’s how…

The Dress: Make It a Wild Card

Every now and then, it’s time to invest in that one wow-factor dress – a statement piece that turns heads and leaves a lasting impression. This year, dresses are bolder than ever, featuring glitz, embellishments, big shoulders, and striking angles. It’s not the time to play it safe. Embrace the wild card with dramatic silhouettes, sparkling sequins, and unexpected details that make your outfit unforgettable. As with everything, the key to styling is balance. Look to understated accessories. Let the dress be the star, complemented by minimalist jewellery and simple heels. This approach keeps things sophisticated. Make your ultimate fashion statement at an evening wedding, in a manor house or castle.

The Power of Separates

The versatility of separates not only allows for personalised wedding outfits but also promotes sustainability in fashion. By mixing and matching skirts, tops, jackets, and trousers, individuals can curate looks that reflect their unique style while reducing the need for multiple single-use garments. Texture, colour and silhouette bring depth to the ensemble while encouraging creativity and reusability, ensuring that each piece can be styled in various ways for different occasions.

Soft Tailoring

Soft tailoring introduces a relaxed yet refined approach to wedding attire. Lightweight fabrics and gentle construction define pieces that effortlessly drape and flatter the body. Unstructured blazers, looser trousers and tailored maxiskirts are modern alternatives to traditional formalwear, perfect for daytime weddings in the countryside. The Row does this well, with pieces in fluid satin embodying a sense of understated elegance – a great option for those who lean towards quiet luxury. When things are minimalist, you can contrast the accessories, going for a boldly coloured bag and statement shoe to lift the scene. With fun additions, you can make a look your own.
