Can I wear a trouser suit to a high end wedding?

[Sallyissailing]

Following on from the lovely response from my post yesterday re my Reiss trousers can you advise on a winner wedding outfit. Can I wear a trouser suit or does it need to be a dress? I have 3 options ordered, I would wear the suit as styled with blouse and scarf. The event is in London and the event is very high end from what I can see .

Both the green dress and the trouser suit are great and very appropriate (with the trouser suit you'll need to style it weddingy rather than worky). Where are they from?

I wore a suit to a February wedding mine was coloured but still trousers and a jacket blouse combo, i was comfortable felt dressed i see them no different to a jumpsuit, i like the trouser suit and the green dress.

The dress is from Reiss and the trousers suit Me+Em @BramStoner

There was discussion about the green dress on here and its suitability as a job interview dress.

The green dress is here , I don’t think it does anything for me so I will sent it back. I will see what the other options are like and perhaps keep looking.

@PhaedraTwo Thank you for linking the thread , it felt like something I would have worn to the office in the 1990’s

Get a tux! There's pics around the web of Cara Delevigne absolutely rocking one at a wedding.

How Massive is Massive?!!

I'm wearing a Moderately Massive Skirt today, & regretting it somewhat as it's a very windy day here in Edinburgh - & I'm in great danger of flashing more than I'm comfortable with ... 😬!!

Agreed about the green dress. It looks quite mundane on. Such a shame. Please order a velvet tux - but not in funeral black.

The trouser suit is amazing but I think how it’s styled is what’s doing it for me 😀

@Flowersandfauna I know, I love how it’s styled and have ordered the shirt and tie 😊

Sorry only the green dress seems appropriate for a wedding. The other dress looks good for an office job and the trouser suit is too casual as well.

I wore a velvet trouser suit to a winter wedding last year and felt fabulous. We are now at the stage of attending friends children’s weddings too and don’t want to stand out but do still want to feel stylish.

The green dress looks very meh on me at best, I shared a picture yesterday.

I'm not sure they're dressy enough?

If you want a trouser suit I would get a different one as the one you showed does look like a work wear one.

I thought you looked lovely and not meh at all.

Love the trouser suit, and trousers are fine for weddings! However, do agree with other posters that a velvet suit for a December wedding would be perfect! Glamorous, and completely appropriate for day to evening. 😀

I think the trouser suit would look great with a nice vest top, and great accessories.

I quite like the siut. Would feminise it though with some bold statement jewellery probably in gold, and maybe try and get some lace of frill in with a shirt or scarf. But up to you and your tastes.

Maybe not suitable for the wedding but I think it looks nice , happy to hear opinions. I might keep it for another time possibly a good Christmas Day dress as we usually go out ?

I agree it looks nice. It fits you well. But also agree it’s not right for the wedding 😃

That looks lovely OP.

I love the reiss suit but I think it's something about the colour too which makes it too casual. I like the way some of the velvet suits posted are styled with matching colour shirts/bow blouses.
I like reiss tailoring too, how about this one, perhaps you could find a matching silk shirt

Op I think the navy dress is stunning , you look so slim ! I saw your thread on the Reiss trousers and can’t believe you are 57 , I am very jealous. I think you would look great in anything though.
