Eight wedding guest dresses for the season ahead to suit all tastes.
Once January is over, no matter what type of weather it is, we want to dress for spring. From February on, if we have a wedding to attend, the unofficial dress code is bright and floaty. Or bright and floaty. It's spring-y, is what I mean. Except for if the wedding is taking place in the middle of a snowstorm, when Christmassy clothes are acceptable, you will want a wedding guest dress that suits the brighter days and flowers in bloom.
We, as always, are at your service. At the moment, the shops are full of the last of the sales dregs. The Zara I went into during the week, in search for something specific, was a first-floor bargain basement. But in the middle of it all is the new season goodies that are giving light at the end of the woolly jumper and long-johns filled tunnel.
The dresses we've picked are a mix of shades and styles so that there's something to take anyone's fancy.
