Say Yes to the Wedding Guest Dress

A floral-print dress is a pretty choice for a spring or summer wedding, perfectly complementing country house, marquee or beach settings. When selecting a patterned dress, consider styles that will work beyond the wedding season for maximum cost per wear.

Make a statement with this maxi floral print dress. The halterneck tie and ruffled tiers create a feminine silhouette , while the darker, more dramatic print offers a twist on traditional summer florals. Finish off with a pair of sleek sandals to ground the look. Wedges, block heels and flatforms work well for lawn receptions.

A wedding can be a magical occasion, but is often an all-day affair, so make sure your dress can go the distance by having an oversized blazer or cardigan to hand.

If you're not a lover of bright colour or graphic prints, polka dots are the perfect subtle statement. This spotty mini dress makes for one of the best summer outfits to have in your occasionwear line-up.

Featuring a striking polka-dot print, flattering flared shape and a statement corsage, it'll get you noticed for all the right reasons. Let this dress do all the talking and keep your accessories minimal - neutral coloured sandals and a simple clutch are all you need.
