Dress Code Guide

Mother Of The Bride – Wedding Dress Code Guide

 

 

 

Choosing an outfit for any wedding can be very confusing. In this post we at Girl Meets Dress have covered the Mother of the Bride and put together the ultimate dress code guide. Check out the mother of the bride section at Girl Meets Dress for great mother of the bride dresses to rent!

 

 

The fashion for most mothers of the bride is a dress or a suit-like outfit. A simple design in a striking colour, accessorised with beautiful jewellery may look better in photographs than something very fussy. Overly bright colours and patterns should be avoided. Hats are traditional – but by no means compulsory – at weddings and can be a stylish addition to the outfit. See our Accessories section at Girl Meets Dress, we have a great selection of hats suitable for weddings!

It’s worth to take into consideration timing and place – daytime weddings and evening affairs have their own explicit sets of dress codes. For the day, you want your fabrics light and colours bright. In the evening, it’s more acceptable to flaunt beads, sequins, and other sparkles in darker hues.  If the wedding is an evening or black tie event then the mothers of the bride could wear an evening gown.

The choice of shoes of the mother of the bride should be stylish yet comfortable. Again, timing and place matters. Choose your shoes carefully in case the wedding is taking place outdoors in a park or vineyard etc. 

Follow the bride’s cues about style, color, and degree of formality. She and the groom set the tone for the event. Ask for advice from the bride ad do not argue against the suggestions. Also compare notes with the groom’s mom – you’ll both feel more comfortable if your elegance is in sync. If you follow tradition, the mother of the bride should be allowed the first opportunity to choose a dress so you don’t end up with the same one.

This year Royal Ascot has yet again tightened up its dress code for the event. If you’re not sure what the latest dress code is, GirlMeetsDress.com will help you navigate through the literature of what dresses to wear and hats not to.

THE ROYAL ENCLOSURE requires formal day wear with strict adherence to the following:

Dresses

  • Dresses should have straps with one inch or more

THE SILVER RING dress code is the less formal environment and correspondingly the dress code is not as strict, namely:

Should be simple enough to follow.

GMD’s Dress Code Guide: Heels and Hems

Nowadays not only are we fraught with decisions on fabrics, colours and necklines, we also have that all important heel and hem decision, a deadly combination that if married incorrectly can ruin that all important look.  Unfortunately, heel and hem combinations aren’t easy to mirror off of friends and strangers you may feel have mastered the marriage.  They are extremely personal and depend strictly on the length and width of your own legs from your hips all the way down to your ankles.  A hemline that stretches a millimetre too long or too short could turn your look from va va voom to va va doom.  Here’s how to prevent these fashion flaws…

 

Mini:  When wearing a mini dress whether short/tall/curvy or slim this dress is always going to make your legs appear longer and therefore you appear taller. If you are petite and this is a desired effect then look no further!  Team it with light-strappy sky-high heels and you’ll add inches.  If you are particularly slender then perhaps opt for a more substantial heel such as a pump to add a bit more volume to the look.  If you are tall then you can opt for either a heel or a flat depending on height desired.  Women who wish to slim down their legs should opt for a lighter more slender shoe.  We love this Puff Sleeve dress by Opening Ceremony that will take you from day to night with ease.  Wear it with ankle boots for an alternative look.  Just ensure they have heels for women who want to elongate their legs further.

 

 

Short-Midi:  Test the look on yourself by holding a dress up to your body in front of the mirror so that the hem sits at the lowest point of your knee.  If this is the widest part of your leg then consider wearing a dress of this length with a heel to detract from this fact and balance out your frame.  The shorter you are the higher your heels should be in order to lengthen your legs further.  We love DVF’S Alexy Jersey dress.

 

 

Long-Midi: Just like the short-midi, this length will need a mirror test.  Hold a dress up to your body so that the hemline hits just below the knees and they are no longer visible.  Most people will find that this does hit the widest part of your leg and therefore the prior rules apply.  Simply experiment with the height of your heels until you achieve your desired look.  The shorter or wider your legs are the higher the heel required.  We love Yves Saint Laurent’s Blue Linen dress.

 

 

Floor-Length: Finally, a floor-length dress will flatter all frames.  Taller girls can often get away with flats and shorter girls can often get away with high-heels.  Long-dresses are particularly slimming therefore the higher the heel the slimmer the look.  The material of the dress is key to your look however as the lighter the dress’s material the lighter the material of the shoe will need to be.  For example a silk summer dress would look clunky with heavy leather pumps but a delicate sandal would be perfect.   We love Adam’s Crepe Column Gown.

Dress Code Guide to social glamourings!

With the party and holiday season upon us navigating through all the different dress styles and terminology can be confusing. So here’s the Girl Meets Dress guide to social glamourings!

WHITE TIE

The most formal of all the occasions is the White Tie, traditionally worn after dark or five pm, which ever one comes first. Dressing for this type of event requires a full length dress, no exceptions! I especially love this coral red jersey dress by Issa , favourite designer of Kate Middleton. What is great about this dress is that it’s both sexy and elegant at the same time. If bold colours aren’t your thing this PPQ dress is just as fantastic in classic black. Another stunning choice is this asymmetrical gown by Marchesa.

BLACK TIE

For a more semi-formal event, known as Black Tie anything from a full length to a cocktail dress is perfectly acceptable and appropriate. With it being less traditional than White Tie you can be a bit fashion forward or even daring, if you wish. For the brave I suggest you try this gorgeous orange dress by Stella McCartney. However if you want to play it safe you can never go wrong with a LBD (little black dress) and Alexander Wang has the perfect one.  YSL offer an alternative contrasting choice with this adorable bow dress.

SMART CASUAL

Last but not least you have Smart Casual. It’s a modern term and look that isn’t steeped in tradition like the others and therefore harder to define. For me the key is in the title, it’s a combination of both smart with casual. This look can vary from a wrap dress to shirt dress to a mini dress. Avoid a ball or cocktail gown however a full length dress in a more casual fabric is a great combination. Here are some of my personal picks for the perfect Smart Casual look.
