It’s on. They’re doing it. You thought they never would and now they’ve set the date, booked the balloon arch and the wedding of the year is just weeks away. But, the struggle is real. UK weather is highly unreliable. This ain’t no newsflash, but you gotta think about your wardrobe options, babe. There will be ‘outdoor’ moments for photographs so you might want layers, and do you go heels or flats? Slayin’ at a summer wedding can take some planning. But don’t worry girls, wedding styling just got easy with our handy go-to guide:
For the fierce ones
We hear you, babe. You are all about standout and you need an outfit that’s gonna knock their socks off and make you stand out from the crowd. Why not aim for a monochromatic contrast with the bride herself and wear black? The Plunge Neck Lace Mini Dress has all the feels. It’s thigh-high and darlingly low-necked so all eyes will be on you. Add black heels to maintain the sophisticated vibe – we love the Gelato Lace-up Platform for its kick-ass shape and because it’s platform gives you a bit of extra oomph in the balance stakes. You don’t want to hit the dancefloor and stumble do you? Never a good look.
Fiercer still is EGO’s selection of cute handbags. By all means, peruse the complete selection but we’re here to tell you that if your vibe is full-on then there is only one bag that checks all the boss babe boxes; The Ring Detail Saddle Bag in the softest faux black leather. Keys, cards, lippy and concealer are all neatly accommodated so no dramas on the dance floor.
One Shoulder Black Split Maxi Dress
For the ‘glamazons’
If you can’t get fully glam at a wedding then where can you? If you love to get your glam game on when thinking about summer wedding guest outfits then no fears, babe, we got the memo and we’ve got the goods. Start with a glamorous dress – it will set the tone for your whole ensemble. The Bardot Mini Dress in sexy pink lace is a great place to start.
Or, if pink feels a little too girlie and #barbiecore then go sultry in Strappy Grey Lace Mini Dress whose underwear-as-outwear vibes are sure to get the party started. Plus you have the added benefit of being bed-ready if you simply need to collapse at the end of the night. This dress’s nightwear vibes are on-trend and also useful AF when the party stops and you just need to hit the hay.
For glamorous shoes EGO also has you sorted. The Diamante Perspex Square Toe Heel is an absolute scene stealer and the heel is just the right height to dance the night away. Pair with the uber luxe Cage Detail Clutch whose gold accent points will shimmer as you stride your way to the free bar – gotta love a free bar at a wedding, right? – to ensure your drink is topped up. Priorities, babe!
Pointed Shoulder Backless Blazer Dress
For the subtle sisters
We get you. You don’t want to upstage your bestie, do you? She’s the bride, it’s her day and you want your look to be beautiful but in a low-key way. You want to garner some admiring glances as you wander from dance floor to bar, but your look needs to be delectable and discreet. Great summer dresses for wedding guests are what EGO’s team has been creating for years so it’s a great place to start.
A subtle dress starts with a subtle tone and that’s why we are crushing on the Blazer Dress with Strap Detail in deliciously understated stone hues. It’s neat and cute, will stand up some shenanigans but it doesn’t scream ‘Look at me!’ Alternatively, you might try the Oversized Wool Look Blazer Dress Mini Dress in a divine neutral shade. It’s another great blazer dress shape, this time slightly oversized so you can pay your dues to the masculine tailoring trend without having to borrow your boyfriend’s suit jacket at the end of the night.
Pair either of these options with a fabulous pair of classic, classy shoes. If you go for neutral tones on your body then it’s best to keep your footwear options to the same hue, lengthening the look of the legs. Genius, right? The Faux Leather Slingback in cream is a great starting point. It’s not too high so if the bride needs you for a last-minute make-up touch-up then sprinting to her aid is not out of the question. Equally, it pairs brilliantly with any of the blazer dress options EGO has to offer.
For the sassy ones
Get you! You always need an outfit with a twist, don’t you? Never one to keep things simple you want your wedding guest outfit to be a conversation starter. You like to divide opinions and get people talking about just how sassy you are! EGO has you covered too. Within the dresses options, there are wedding guest outfits to suit every taste and temperament, the only trouble you’re gonna have is taking your perfect pick.
For daring and different dresses there are plenty to choose from; we love the Mesh Detail Cut Out Waist dress for its full-length drama. The waist detail is pure sass right there but when you add the asymmetric neckline and the standout length you have the dress of dreams. But, if black’s not your vibe for a wedding then you might choose a dress with an even greater twist, pink faux leather. Yes, you heard us right! It’s daring, its sassy and it will certainly mean all eyes are on you. The Pink Cracked Leather Blazer Dress comes with a self-tie belt to cinch the waist. It’s not for the faint of heart, but hey that’s not you so crack on and wear the cracked faux leather blazer dress. You’ll steal the show.
For all the wedding outfit options
We’ve given you a pretty comprehensive run-down of the best of EGO’s selection of wedding guest dress idea so now all you need to do is sort the make-up, hair, tan and hotel. We’ll leave that to you, but remember EGO has you sorted for your wedding guest ‘fit of dreams. What are you waiting for, get clicking!
