Hooray for autumn and autumn wedding season. Figuring out what to wear to a wedding can be tough, but the Charlotte boutiques are here to take away the stress.
While many of summer’s bright colors could work as you transition, fall wedding guest attire gives way to longer sleeves and to the darker colors that speak for the season. Velvet EVERYTHING is the go-to this year. If you’re going to a formal wedding, wearing a velvet dress, heels or carrying a velvet bag is a classy way to add in this trend. If you’re going to an informal wedding, velvet booties or velvet mules are a great fun option to give your outfit that extra pop.
If velvet isn’t your thing, suede, autumn florals and animal prints are also trending. Be sure to check out Monkee’s suede dresses and velvet heels, and don’t miss Copper Penny’s floral dresses. TRCW offers classic Charlotte style with just a bit of a European flair, and if you’re one to push the envelope, check out The Pink Hanger’s gunmetal jumpsuit by Amanda Uprichard.
Whether you consider your style chic, traditional or minimal, here are our best looks to have you be the best-dressed guest on the autumn wedding list, no competition.
