Cranberry, plum and your little black dress; what should you wear to your friend’s wedding in the fall? You’ll want something appropriate for the celebration but also coincides with the weather and the season’s style. Remember you don’t want to steal the bride’s thunder, steer clear of white, cream or anything that may look like a wedding dress itself.
Focus on colors and classic lines, especially if you’re not sure of the formality or shades the brides has chosen for the wedding day. Neutrals are nice but paying homage to the autumn air is key if you want to look fashion-forward and on trend. Add some texture, a great shoe and you’re good to go and have a spin on the dance floor.
From a bit of boho to a few formal options that speak of the season, take a peek at these lovely options below. Gather some inspiration and start your shopping sooner rather than later.
