In addition to not choosing a white party dress or in a similar tone, so as not to overshadow the wedding dress, there are other tips that you can take if you want to become the perfect guest. Among them, hitting the length of your suit, which will depend on the time the wedding rings pose is performed, as well as the level of formality. Check what the protocol dictates in each of the cases.
Short dress
According to the protocol rules, short party chiffon dresses (considered half dress) are reserved exclusively for morning, midday or afternoon marriages. Of course, since these are formal events in most cases, the ideal is not to subtract too many centimeters from your look. That is, do not feel uncomfortable if when moving, it goes up more than necessary.
You will be successful with a short dress in a marriage with dress code Cocktail, Formal Beach (Guayabera) or Elegant Casual and of course the style of each model will change according to the type of celebration. The Cocktail responds to daytime formal events, usually scheduled for the late afternoon, while the Guayabera is requested for weddings on the beach or coastal areas. The Smart Casual, meanwhile, combines informality with well-cut garments, thus marking an outfit that is simultaneously comfortable and classy.
Long dress
On the opposite side, the protocol indicates that the long party dress should be worn exclusively at evening events. However, there are different meanings according to each case. If a dress code is requested Rigurosa Label (White Tie) or Label (Black Tie), which are the most demanding dress codes, the chosen dress must cover the shoes. And it should always be accompanied with high-heeled footwear. However, if a dress code Optional Label (Black Tie Optional) or Creative Label (Creative Black Tie) is requested, you can choose a long dress that reaches the ankles, that is asymmetrical cut or slightly finished in mullet style. That is, a little longer at the back than at the front. Therefore, if the invitation asks for any of these dress codes, you know where to start looking.
Midi dress
On the other hand, there is also the option of wearing a midi-length dress, although the protocol does not say anything about it. The midi sets the cut to the mid-calf, although it can be a little higher or a little lower. How do you know if you will hit one of them? Due to the height they reach, midi suits are usually more appropriate for daytime weddings, being able to choose, for example, a midi dress printed with flowers for a wedding with country touches. Or, a polka dot blue prom dress for a boho chic inspired link. Now, if you dare to wear a silk slip dress, which is closer to the ankles than to the calf, then you can also wear it at night ideally in a metallic color.
