I have bought this dress for a friend's wedding but not sure what colour accessories to go for. Black doesn't look right and that's my go to colour! Any suggestions?

You're right, definitely not black, but if that's your comfort zone then a dark blue would be really fine.

Nude, silver or navy

Lovely dress btw

Red shoes .

Op, pick out any of the secondary colours in the dress!

If you really want to wear your black shoes, complement with a black clutch and maybe black earrings. This may work if they are strappy black sandals like in the pic (but black!) since plenty of flash to balance out the black. However, it probably won’t work!

As @Rubiesue suggests.
Take the dress with you and look for accessories that are one of the other colours in the it..
Lovely dress it is to.

KickAssAngel · 01/10/2022 14:36

any color that fits with the flowers on the dress - you could have a handbag in one, and the shoes in another.

Gorgeous dress. I'd go with white , nude or silver as pp suggested. Because any of those would prob go with a multitude of other outfits too.

GiveMyHeadPeaceffs · 01/10/2022 15:09

I agree with @Rubiesue definitely pick up on one of the other colours and I'd go with shoes and bag in that colour. Beautiful dress too.

What do you think of these? I don't want anything too high as I'm quite tall.

Blush pink

going to need quite delicate shoes to look right with a floaty dress like that (it’s lovely, btw, really pretty). I’d go for a strappy sandal or a slingback at the most. And either a dark colour or a pale neutral rather than something bright that would compete with the dress.

A subtle 🍊

londonmummy1966 · 01/10/2022 22:25

The dark red shoes in your post would go well and perhaps a bag in a similar colour. Not too bright to fight with the dress but toning in well

Whyishedoingthat · 01/10/2022 22:31

I’d go dusky pink.

OldTinHat · 01/10/2022 22:33

Lovely dress! I'd go for red or purple.

Piffle11 · 01/10/2022 22:37

As others have said - pick a colour from the flowers on the dress.
