Wedding Guest Outfit

12 replies

DeadCertain · 15/05/2021 18:26

I am going round in circles trying to find a nice outfit for a wedding in July, fairly relaxed.

I am 5ft 6 ish, inverted triangle / hourglass type shape - size ten usually on my top half as I have broad shoulders, size eight on my bottom half, small waist and flat stomach. Quite athletic and toned.

I have dark hair, medium skin tone, green ish hazel eyes. I suit bright colours.

I have found these that I think I like but have been looking so much that I am totally unsure as to whether I really do or not......

Any ideas that people have come across that might work at all? Any help gratefully received.....

Love that jumpsuit, I haven't got the figure for something like that but if I did I'd definitely wear it. It's lovely and I think perfect for a wedding.

The jumpsuit is much nicer. It looks vaguely luxurious, so would be perfect for a relaxed wedding. Less keen on the dress.

I like this & Other Stories dress - if it really is voluminous. Hard to tell without more pictures.

Or this. Similar-ish to the jumpsuit.

This is cute. Much bolder and more statement-y, which may or may not justify the higher price, depending on your point of view. Would look excellent in photos.

@MayIDestroyYou I like that second dress - the first and third I think would look terrible on me, but could see them looking amazing on the right person! Thank you for your help.

Of your picks I prefer the dress. I don't think that it hangs well on the model, but it might look great on you.

The jumpsuit says Garden Party not Wedding to me.

I like the dress colour which will look amazing on whomever suits that colour, but I don't like the bottom hem. The jump suit is really nice.

Glad to help!

Here's one more as I'm having a lazy morning. Possibly too short, hard to say.

Thanks all - the Hobbs dress is a gorgeous colour and I do like that last one MayIDestroyYou but think it will be very short.....I am generous of leg too, not got the beautiful thin legs of the model; mine are muscular.
