Summer is winding down, which means—as you likely know all too well—a new season of weddings is just around the corner. Finding one of the best fall wedding guest dresses is now paramount—but it doesn’t have to be a time-sucking, headache-inducing ordeal.
“Opting for classic silhouettes and leaning into accessories to bring in seasonal colors and trends is the easiest way to transition dresses from season to season,” says Reformation senior director of design Jess Kotal. Deep burgundies and vibrant emeralds, along with classic navy, bring the warmth while still looking exceptionally sleek, whether you’re wearing them as the main piece or a finishing touch. Now is also the perfect time to play with texture—think soft knits and delicate appliqués, says Kotal: “Regardless of the time of year, look for dainty feminine details like bows and self-covered buttons to create an extra special, elevated effect.”
Below, we’ve curated 17 of the best fall wedding guest dresses to shop right now, from colorful shifts to floor-length, minimalist knits. Elegant and unique, they take the pressure off of looking good, so you can focus on holding back the tears as you celebrate one of the most important days of your loved one’s life.
