The search for winter wedding guest dresses is officially on, as we edge out of autumn and into the much cooler months. Luckily, there’s nothing more romantic than the idea of a winter wedding. Watching a couple say their vows at a cosy venue surrounded by twinkling lights and a sprinkling of snow? Sign us up. The only problem? What on earth to wear?
Enter: GLAMOUR’s guide to the best winter wedding guest dresses. A far stretch from your summer wedding guest dress (and probably even your autumn wedding guest dress) your winter nuptials-ready frock needs to be something that’ll keep you warm when you’re sat down (or taking endless pictures), cool while you’re on the dance floor, and – of course – uber glam.
Shopping for said silhouette is no easy task; whether you want something with long sleeves, a midi dress covered in sequins, strapless tulle or a mini silhouette cast in lustrous velvet or satin… You still need to be mindful not to outshine the bride.
From stalwart high street clothing stores such as ASOS, Warehouse and Karen Millen, to more boujee brands such as Self-Portrait, Zimmermann and Rixo, we’ve found an array of Instagram-worthy gowns that will stand out both on your feed and IRL.
Although, if you’re not one for occasion dresses, you could always turn your attention to alternative wedding guest outfits (think trouser suits, midi skirts, statement blazers) or wedding guest jumpsuits.
