Forget the frantic dash for a wedding guest dress the day before the occasion. Find exactly what you’re looking for with Liberty’s guide to the best dresses around
By: Team LibertyBrides-to-be search long and hard for the wedding dress of their dreams, but deciding what to wear as a guest isn't exactly a walk in the park, either; colour, style, fit and fabric are just a few of the many factors you need to juggle. The remedy? One of the best wedding guest dresses Liberty’s rails has to offer, of course. Whether you need something suitable for a destination ceremony, or a dress that will feel right at place in a English country garden, let Liberty get you dressed.
The City Wedding
For those weddings that have a more metropolitan feel to them, the kind that might take place in a towering skyscraper, an art gallery or a grand city hall, the ideal wedding guest dresses should be chic and comfortable (you might have to take the bus, train or tube to reach the venue, after all). Think elegant and effortless silhouettes that deliver on all fronts, like this showstopper from Bernadette.

The Destination Wedding
A dress that will keep you cool during sunny outdoor weddings or under the heat of a marquee is more than necessary – particularly if you’re travelling beyond Britain's shores to sunnier climes. Look for light and breezy fabrics in flowy silhouettes while a colourful or graphic print will ensure you won’t look casual or underdressed. And because it pays to be prepared for every weather eventuality, be sure to take a chill-cancelling cardigan or shawl with you, just in case.

The Garden Wedding
The best wedding guest dresses are the kind that stand out, without detracting any attention from the bride, so set your sights on those that come with statement (but never scene-stealing) details. Think: puff sleeves, flowing, billowing hemlines and decadent fabrics. Better still, look to those decked in floral prints. The natural option for those weddings set in a garden or the great outdoors, a botanical print that seems to bloom and unfurl right before your eyes will provide just the right amount of theatre and opulence.

The Evening Wedding
Sometimes the wedding dress code calls for something a little more glamorous, especially if the ceremony or party is taking place after dark. Dresses adorned with sequins or made from lustrous fabrics will catch the light even in the most dimly lit of venues, and sticking to classic colours will ensure wearability long after the wedding is over. The only thing to remember: a party bag and some striking jewellery as a finishing flourish.
