What colour with this dress?

Going to a close family member's wedding in a few weeks. Bought this dress (which honestly looks better in real life than in the photo)
Was planning on black shoes/bag/hat or fascinator but am now thinking it needs a bit of colour.
Need to get all three so they must co-ordinate and am on a high street rather than designer budget.
What do you think? Coloured accessories or black???
Thanks

What colour with this dress?

Definitely colour...I'd go with either bright Orange or Turquoise. But I'm a fan of bright colours against monochrome. Lovely dress

I think you could wear almost any colour shoes with it, red, purple, bright blue. But I'd stick to a black bag and maybe black a fascinator as well.

Pink?

Nudes - nude shoes, similar bag, minimal jewellry

Just about anything with that. White shoes & handbags are coming back in (the 80s live again). Metallics would look great, or black.

Or you could choose a color or a range of colors.

There was another thread recently about a wedding where no-one wore fascinators, so you may want to rethink that.

I'd go black hat and shoes and all-out bog-off statement handbag. Our local TKMaxx does fabulous handbags in some really gorgeous colours.

I'd go for a pastel, like a soft mint green. I don't agree with a black bag, I'd get a envelope clutch in a colour.

Thank you everyone! I was thinking pink as there seems to be a lot about and the general consensus does seem to be a colour so will hit the shops later. Had been thinking fascinator but on reading the other thread, I am not so sure!

I work with this brand in the place I work, I would pair either hot pink or teal with it Smile splashes of colour look great with Monochrome!

With it being a black and white dress. You can literally go for any colour.
