Looking for the perfect wedding guest dress? Sydne and I may have stumbled upon the answer during our recent style rendezvous in San Diego — with Le Petit Prince, Preston (is he not THE cutest lil gentleman!?). Check out this 60s-inspired floral mini dress in yellow and in blue, plus more color options that not only would make the ideal dress to wear to a wedding, but also to garden parties, bridal showers, baby showers, and birthday dinners too.
Perfect Wedding Guest Dress?
I’ll unveil (haha, pun intended) the reasons why this dress should be your top pick for all your celebratory events. Hint: It elicits TONS of compliments.
Why This Dress Makes the Perfect Wedding Guest Outfit
1. Comfort and Style
Not only is this dress beautiful — those 3D lace mesh flowers are stunning — it’s actually comfortable too. With its A-line silhouette (re: free, loose waist), it’s the ideal dress for eating and dancing with no restrictions. I love the swing sleeves too, which make dancing the night away even more fun. Plus, it’s fun for showing off your gams, but it still conservative enough with its neckline to be just the right balance of sophisticated and playful!
2. Season-Transcending Florals
The floral embellishments are so unique and timeless too, making this dress a versatile choices for weddings and celebrations across seasons, be it a summer soirée, spring bridal shower, baby shower, or even fall and winter festivities. When the weather cools, just add tights and drape an oversized blazer over your shoulders for a cool-girl look — or a beautiful, classic coat in wool or faux fur for a classic ’60s vibe. I especially love this midnight blue option for fall/winter or more formal, evening occasions.
3. Picture-Perfect Palette
The blue-and-white and sunny yellow palettes are classic and cheerful, ensuring you stand out in those wedding photos, yet not upstaging the bride. Plus, you can wear this dress to so many other occasions, so it’s very versatile too!
With this dress in your wardrobe, you’ll be ready to shine at weddings, garden parties, bridal showers, baby showers, and birthday dinners – all while exuding grace and charm.
Which color would you choose?
After Fred Baby snapped these photos, Sydne and I actually decided to swap dresses! So, now I am the happy owner of the yellow version (you guys know I LOVE yellow) and she felt like the blue was more her style.
I later wore this dress to a friend’s special birthday dinner at Soho House in LA recently and got SO many compliments. It made me feel like a million bucks!
