Wedding dress code - ‘trendy’ ????????

[JangolinaPitt]

What do I wear?
Context is afternoon/evening summer
Gsy marriage (two men in their 40s)
Guests apart from family mostly men.
I am 50s/size 10…
Normally dress youngish so anything will do but what the hell does it mean?
(And yes, I will ask them for examples but guess they are only thinking about male attire….)

Message the grooms and ask

I LOVE these. Not sure about the black but either of the others would be perfect.
I so want to be invited to a 'trendy' wedding now!

I think I’d wear a jumpsuit and flats, dress codes are confusing!

Like describing something as "classy"? I agree!

Not a helpful term OP and I can see why you want to check.

Agree that it's a very wanky thing to put on a wedding invitation.
Jumpsuit is a good idea, also maybe a trouser suit in a very bright colour? They seem to be really 'in' at the moment.

Trendy at the moment judging by taking teen DD clothes shopping is brown/biege baggy shapeless clothes! its bloody awful!

I like you. Are you married?

I have a dress code for absolutely every single occasion - wear whatever the fuck you want.

Lol @ the lunchbox 😀😀😀😀😀

Oh yes!!!!!!!!😀

Had a dress similar to this one for the last summer wedding I addended. Fashionable/ chic but comfortable as it covered shoulders. Dressed it up with nude heals, gold necklace and earrings. Got lots of compliments. I’m in my mid-late 20s

If the guests are mainly men as you say maybe they are just trying to avoid their wedding photos being a sea of drab dark suits? I agree with pp a jumpsuit could work. Or a suit in a bold colour if you feel the cold.

I'd say it just means you can step away from the smart dress and fascinating type typically wedding outfits. A jumpsuit is a great idea.

I would take it to mean something that is not the mother-of-the-bride, matching-suit-and-hat type outfit.

This sort of suit says trendy to me. www.riverisland.com/p/blue-printed-double-breasted-blazer-768714?gclid=CjwKCAjw7cGUBhA9EiwArBAvokXcXfyajQreNcuLBbZKF0GQwaNOo32onGOm4PBTJ5YKUV-fwIFoeRoCOgsQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Paperbag waistlines are very in right now.
So you could wear a silk camisole or a silky top tucked into paperbag trousers with a nice skinny belt, heels and a bag.
The 'trendy' thing would put me right off though!

This sort of look (although I wouldnt feel comfortable in it myself): www.boden.co.uk/en-gb/carrie-paperbag-trousers-ivory/sty-r0104-ivo?code=J7T7&cm_mmc=pmax--Google--16273714553----&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIkdCj7rGB-AIVUO7tCh1VmAmIEAQYFCABEgLJQPD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

No fascinators or pashminas

I definitely think a jumpsuit would be great with wedges for summer look and no hats or fascinators (fat sisters - on other thread 😂)

Jumpsuit is challenging for all day wear - the loo challenge has always put me off.
I think trendy just means you can ignore the usual traditional wedding dress code and wear whatever you like.

Jumpsuit.

100%.

How about something like this… reminds me of the same cut as a Vampires Wife dress but a fraction of the cost.

I do like that but I bought something from that site a few years ago and had to return it and the denied all knowledge of the return were unhelpful and wouldn’t refund so won’t buy from them again (never had any problems with other sites)

Trendy to me means Madonna in her Desperately Seeking Susan period, so corset, tonnes of jewellery, baggy trousers and plenty of lace in your hair 😁

Would also fit the bill for an 80s themed wedding, which might not be quite what they had in mind!
