If you've found yourself on the receiving end of a "casual" wedding invite, you're likely wondering, "what the heck do I wear?!". Yes, the rules have evolved in terms of what is appropriate to witness "I do's" in, but a casual wedding can still feel like a humdinger. First of all, how casual is casual? Is a dress required? If so, do cotton or linen fabrics fly? What about a shorter hemline? So. Many. Questions.
This time of year, a laid-back wedding dress code is an opportunity to explore all those summery dresses you've been tempted by, but haven't quite known where or when to wear them. Silhouettes with puffy sleeves and ruffles feel so romantic, yet relaxed with simple heels or metallic sandals. Punchy prints and bright colours are festive and fun, but feel decidedly low-key in easy fabrics like cotton or linen with raffia mules or so-now naked sandals to finish. If you can't resist the drama of a maxi silhouette, opt for a natural beauty look to avoid feeling fussy or overdone.
Whatever your wedding-guest style is, ahead, discover 25 super-pretty dresses that are perfect to wear to a casual ceremony, including fun and flattering styles for curvy figures. The best part? They're all under $100! Meaning, you may want to stock up on a few of your favourites — the under $52 POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's styles are particularly hard to resist.
After the wedding, re-wear whatever style you choose sneakers for the ultimate in casual-chic style through the end of Summer and beyond.
