You’ve sent off the RSVP, booked the hairdresser – and panic has set in. Despite a wardrobe bulging with dresses, you obviously don’t have anything to wear. If there’s a rigid dress code, you risk not feeling yourself; but if there is a dress code that reads “Big Lebowski meets Brat meets Blue Planet”, then there’s a very real possibility that you’re going to strike a bum note.
Of course, a big part of what you decide to wear will depend on where the nuptials will take place – church or country home, beach or barn – and the weather. Either way, the crucial thing is to choose a dress that guarantees comfort as well as style, one that will see you through from ceremony to best man’s speech and propping up the dancefloor for many hours after.
