The Editor-Approved Wardrobe For A Garden Wedding

Less structure, more movement

Outdoor ceremonies often demand a different kind of sartorial approach for guests. The setting strips away the need for formal eveningwear, opening the floor to clothes that breathe, drape and react to the afternoon heat.

The move here is to opt for fluid tailoring or sweeping dresses cut from silk chiffon, organza or linen. Colour-wise, butter yellows (frankly, all things pastel) and painterly botanicals fit the environment, provided the base shade stays far enough away from ivory to avoid any camera-flash ambiguity. As for the ground underneath: lawns and narrow stilettos are natural enemies. Anchor the look with wedges or a slightly wider heel that keeps your footing steady from the vows to the final cheers. Here is the MOJEH edit for your next garden wedding.
