What to wear to a Summer Wedding?
Summer weddings are beautiful! The flowers and trees have blossomed, the sun is shining, and the warmer temperatures provide a lot more choices for wedding guest attire. Dress codes for weddings can slightly vary slightly, but whether you love sporting a dress, a coordinating suit, or something more contemporary, there is sure to be something for you in our spring/summer 2023 collections!
Our amazing brands such as Masai, Foil, Orientique, Robell and Oska have a wide choice of options suitable for the most formal, to the more relaxed of weddings. You can shop our entire occasion wear collection here.
Dresses are always a great option for weddings as once you have found the perfect piece, all that is left to do is accessorise! Prints look great at summer weddings, and you will be spoiled for choice by Orientique’s range of printed dresses, from reversible shift dresses to midi bubble dresses!
The MaNeia Embroidery Dress by Masai is the dress of the season in our opinion, the silhouette will compliment anybody, and it comes in a black and white embroidered floral print and a pink and gold floral print.
The Showstopper Dress by Foil is a flattering A-shape dress with a tie waist and v-neckline. We love the Fandango pink colour for when you want to make a statement without the prints! Shop our entire range of occasion wear dresses here!

Feminine and chic, coordinating items allow you to feel put together in an instant. Robell has some new pieces crafted in an embroidered stripe cotton-blend fabric, including a blazer and their signature Bella 09 trouser, which would make the perfect co-ord for a wedding! We would style a suit such as this one with small heels like our Muri Cocktail Mule, or the Aneka Icon Wedge, to add a feminine touch to this classic look and elevate the outfit. A printed blouse or a simple vest will look great layered underneath, depending on your desired end look!
Contemporary pieces
The boundaries of traditional occasion wear have changed over the last 20 years and it is now much easier to dress within your own style and preferences even for the most formal of events! Oska is one brand that is great for contemporary, modern pieces that can be worn formally with the right accessories and footwear. Our personal favourite is the Staahl Dye Cupro Dress, which looks best layered over some bubble trousers. The Flaadha Linen Check Dress is also a great option which can be worn with or without trousers. Oska pieces look great with Branch jewellery, and some simple heeled or flatform sandals or loafers will work well to elevate the look for the occasion.
From the footwear to necklaces, accessories are a great way to elevate outfits to the best-dressed guest standard! Kanna wedges are amazing summer heels that provide height in the most comfortable way and complement lots of different-shaped dresses and skirts. Caroline Svedbom’s beautiful range of necklaces and earrings are great finishing pieces and they have such a great choice of colours.
