Eye Popping Prints

If you’re looking for a sophisticated yet striking look you can’t go wrong with an attention gabbing print this season. Whether a stunning black and white or a bold and beautiful colour extravaganza this is the only choice if you want to strike a confident tone at this wedding party.

National Velvet

Whether a bold black, rich red or beautiful blue you can’t go wrong with a touch of velvet this season. More suited to a wonderful winter wedding than sophisticated summer soiree rich velvet is the right choice for that ultimate touch of luxury. Elizabeth Taylor eat your heart out!

Slip Dress Revival

For a super slinky look ideal for a sunny summer garden wedding choose a stunning slip dress. That’s right folks slip dresses are making a comeback yet again so make sure you’re ahead of the curve and add this staple to your wardrobe. Pair with a jaunty jacket for a more demure daytime look and then dare to bear in the evening and dance the night away.

Show Some Shoulder

The craze continues as showing off those shapely shoulders becomes the latest trend in wedding guest attire. These days you can’t call yourself a top fashionista if you don’t have at least one outfit in your wardrobe that’s missing material from the shoulder zone. So get with the programme and start moisturising those shoulders for their wedding season debut.

Pretty in Lace

I’m starting to wonder if lace ever really goes out of fashion, the amount used may vary but the classic lace dress rarely lets you down. Always the safe choice if you’re hoping for a pretty yet classy look that you can wear again and again and again.

Over the Rainbow

Move over pastels there’s a new colour palette in town. For those of you who have missed the super bright primary colours of your youth now’s your chance to shine with bold, punchy primary shades that will have everyone reaching for their sunglasses.

Earn Your Stripes

Like the glossy coat of the elegant Siberian Tiger you can rock any wedding celebration with your own unique take on the chic stripe. From a graphic and blocky look to a classic pin stripe, any type of stripe works this season. If you really want to make this look pop pair it with punchy solid colour accessories.

Blooming Marvellous

Warning: This look is not for shrinking violets. Big, blousy and bold blooms are all the rage this season. Whether you choose graphic, oriental or 70s style floral prints you can’t go wrong with this statement style.

Sheer Happiness

If you ever had thwarted dreams of becoming a ballerina then this is the look for you. Ruffled tiers of pastel-hued tulle, sheer chiffon and semi opaque dresses are going to be wowing wedding goers all over the country. Now you can wear all the beautiful costumes without all the tough training.

Love you and Sleeve You

From jackets to jumpers we’ve seen blousy and bell sleeves creeping into all areas of fashion this season and now they’ve made it to the dizzy heights of wedding couture. So if you haven’t got the upper arm tone of Madonna this could be the perfect fashion choice for you.

So whether you’re bold and beautiful or cool and chic there’s a perfect wedding outfit to compliment your own unique style that will have happy couples lining up to invite you and your fashion fabulousness to their wedding celebrations.
