THE STYLIST VIEWPOINT
PRE OWNED
GUCCI / FARFETCH
Sophisticated city weddings call for an outfit which is suitably bridal but not over the top and for daytime events, doesn’t veer to much into occasion wear - save the long dresses for the evening parties. The ceremony dress can be completely devoid of any detail or it can be fully embellished depending on personal style preferences and this dress is neither. It is minimal in it’s basic shape and fabric yet the beautifully constructed draping adds drama and a fashion element for brides who want to stand out but not too much. The layered frills at the neckline continue round the back for 360 degree elegance.
As the dress has a lot going on front and back, keep accessories simple - the neckline is best kept free from jewellery so focus on pretty earrings and notable shoes. Hair jewels have been noted on many runways recently and multiple gem covered hair clips scattered throughout the hair are modern, fashionable and youthful.
NOTE
This dress is silk which can be quite unforgiving hence the use of shape wear. The back to the dress is scooped low therefore standard bras will not suit. I suggest if possible for the small busted, go braless or wear an adhesive bra from Fashion Forms if support is needed.
