Whether its arrival is marked with a casual invite or a soft swish as a calligraphy-addressed invitation lands on your doormat, there’s no denying that Wedding Season is fast approaching.
The sight of these aforementioned invites piling up on your mantelpiece might inspire a sense of panic when you start to consider your sartorial options for each one. Fear not, though; this is exactly why we’ve curated our edit of summer wedding guest dresses. Transforming the whole experience of piecing together your outfit into a pleasure (not a pain), our pick of occasion dresses suits any setting and celebration - from small nuptials to top-table-marquee-filled-church-bells-are-ringing whirlwinds.
Wild Meadow Print Short Fit + Flare Dress
Mini dresses are the perfect partner to more casual, laid-back weddings; something that starts at a registry office and ends in the dining area of the newlywed’s favourite restaurant, or takes place in sunlit back gardens after you’ve showered the bride and groom in colourful confetti outside a village church.
Short dresses in bold prints and patterns are effortless throw-on-and-go styles that are easy to accessorise for a fresh look each time, adding mileage to your investment. Heeled sandals can be replaced with patent brogues and a tailored blazer can join the party if there’s any chill in the air - after all, church pews are notoriously chilly. This addition also nods to smart tailoring that’s always been synonymous with quintessential wedding guest outfits if you want to err on the side of tradition.

Our Wild Meadow Print Short Fit + Flare Dress is crafted from lustrous high-shine satin and topped with a neat V-neckline. A darker iteration of a classic floral, it will also be easy to style well into the colder months with tights and black tailoring.
In a combination of soft green, blue, and cream, our Trailing Flower Print Fit And Flare Dress is accompanied by a belt that switches the silhouette between a loose and more fitted one that can be adopted for different purposes through Wedding Season.
Statement Racerback Floor-Length Dress + Belt
While the idea of jetting off to sun-soaked climes to celebrate the union of your nearest and dearest fills you with delight, it also brings with it the question of what to wear. Achieving the right destination-wedding-guest look is far easier said than done; after all, something overly formal will look out of place if you’re finding your seat amongst ones set out on a sandy beach or terraced vineyards.
This is where bohemian-inspired styles come to the fore and lighter fabrics that might have struck a too-casual tone at home, rise to the surface - rejoice.
Achieving a head-to-toe look, our Statement Racerback Floor-Length Dress + Belt heroes a bold, eye-catching hue, falls to a flattering level hem at your ankles and ensures that all you need to consider is shoes. Our Handwoven Sandal in cream retains a polished finish for weddings but also sits on a flat sole that ensures you don’t find yourself sinking into the grass at alfresco affairs.
Silk Pleat Collar Maxi Shirt Dress + Belt
Sometimes the hardest hurdle to overcome when piecing together wedding guest outfits is staying true to your own personal style; there’s nothing worse than spending a day that’s meant to be celebratory fussing with your outfit or regretting your sartorial choices. A guaranteed success in the wedding-guest style stakes, pure silk in a classic hue is always appropriate and adopts so many different guises that you’re guaranteed to find a style that makes you feel completely yourself in the best way possible.
Our Silk Pleat Collar Maxi Shirt Dress + Belt in navy boasts a long-sleeved silhouette for more coverage and is topped with a statement collar. Borrowing details from traditional shirting, this style is the perfect solution to city weddings that involve multiple destinations - from a registry office to a restaurant’s private dining room and a spontaneous dancefloor.
Once you’ve brought the style home, you might even find yourself looking for excuses to slip it on before the wedding - you’ll never be short of them thanks to the style’s timeless cut and adaptable design that speaks to AM-PM styling.
Bluebell Print Ruffle Trim Maxi Dress + Slip
While autumn and winter weddings might call for a more muted colour palette and tailored separates, summer’s warmer climes and blue skies create the perfect excuse to champion a bold pattern or scattered print through a plethora of summer wedding guest dresses.
Ensuring both ends of the spectrum are catered to - we wouldn’t want any colour magpies or sartorial purists to miss out - our printed summer dresses feature patterns in everything from soft creams and olive tones to bright, statement-making blues.

Polka Dot Flower Maxi Shirt Dress + Belt
While summer’s rising temperatures might typically be synonymous with rising hemlines, maxi dresses also have their part to play in wedding guest attire, especially when the said style celebrates a statement-making shade.
The beauty of these women’s dresses as well is that you need little to no additions or accessories to look effortlessly put together and polished; these silhouettes grant the colour maximum room to play and are perfect for more traditional nuptials that transition into formalwear-filled evening celebrations when accompanied by scene-stealing statement jewellery.
Featuring a separate belt and a design free from belt loops, our Polka Dot Flower Maxi Shirt Dress transforms between a loosely draped style and a more defined one when the belt is used to highlight your waist. This change in silhouette also complements different dress codes; where more formality is required, the belt adds a polished finish to the comfortable, boldly patterned style.
