Mountain Wedding
Style 55079DB2, D21NY2115V1, D21NY2115V2W, D21NY2121
Headed to a wedding in the mountains? Our #1 tip is to choose a long sleeve dress for built-in warmth, regardless of the season! If it’s a cold weather wedding, reach for velvet for a luxe look. In the summer and springtime, a dress made from light & airy fabrics like chiffon is perfect.
When it comes to color, we recommend picking a dress in either black, navy, or wine to complement the woodsy backdrop. But if you want to stand out—go for gold! This golden metallic mini, which also comes in black and red, will ensure you’re the star of the dance floor.
Beach Wedding
Style WBM2525, WBM2683, D21NY2122
Does your invitation say beach wedding? Unless specifically stated by the couple, we recommend against wearing beach attire to the celebration. The next best choice? A fun & flirty style that feels extra special, just like the vacation destination. Consider a patterned dress or a dress in a bright, bold color. To stay sweat-free, we recommend opting for a short dress style that is either strapless, off-the-shoulder, or has spaghetti straps. Pair with a fancy pair of sandals to make walking on the sand a breeze.
City Wedding
Style WBM2664, D21NY2134V1, VW21012D, D21NY2129
For city wedding, we recommend a sleek style with subtly sexy touches: think cutouts and thigh-high leg slits. You can’t go wrong with a classic color like black, but don’t be afraid to be bold and wear red. Worried about comfort? For a unique look you’ll be comfortable mingling in all night long, jumpsuits are the way to go. Finish off with accessories that shine as bright as a city skyline at night.
