How to create the perfect ceremony outfit?
We all know that moment of immense joy when receiving a wedding invitation, followed by a wave of panic of “what am I going to wear?”. Reusing pieces from your wardrobe? Renting an outfit specifically for the occasion? Or buying a new outfit? So many questions run through our minds… Between cut, color and fabric, many choices need to be made.
The most important thing when creating a ceremony outfit is to be consistent with the event. Start thinking about shades and patterns in order to be elegant without stealing the spotlight from the people for whom the celebration is taking place. If the invitation mentions a color code, take it into account to guide your choices. Opting for plain and soft colors will allow you to wear your pieces on other occasions, and thus have a more responsible approach.
