If the wedding takes place outdoors, surrounded by greenery and flowers, the theme is undoubtedly rustic. In this case, go for light and flowing dresses that evoke nature.

Here are 3 tips for choosing your rustic wedding guest dress:

• Prefer natural materials like cotton or silk.
• Choose pastel colors or soft shades.
• Accessorize with a wicker handbag or delicate sandals.

Dressing for a wedding may seem complicated, but it just takes following a few simple rules. First, respect the dress code indicated on the invitation. Then, opt for a dressed-up outfit without being too extravagant. A cocktail dress or a chic evening gown will do perfectly. Don't forget that the goal is to celebrate the couple while being comfortable! Here are our 3 tips to avoid the fashion faux pas when choosing a dress for a wedding:

1. Avoid white, reserved for the bride.
2. Avoid all black, often associated with mourning.
3. Favor noble materials and elegant cuts.

Finally, don't forget that accessories have the power to make a basic outfit very festive!

Have you ever been to a wedding where guests confused the bride with her mother-in-law? It's the kind of situation that ends up on social media, and weddings that sometimes end in divorce. That's why there are certain colors to avoid so as not to overshadow the bride or break the harmony of the ceremony! 

First of all, white is completely off-limits. Unless it's the theme, solid white, off-white, and pastel tones that can appear as light as white in the sun, we say goodbye. You might be excused for wearing a white dress with very noticeable patterns like large flowers, but this is where the line is drawn. Beyond that, you risk turning the bride into a bridezilla!

As for black, it depends a lot on the dress and the theme. Generally speaking, if you wore a dress to a funeral, avoid wearing it to a wedding. However, if a black dress fits the theme (formal, for example), and its material and cut remain festive, bright (in satin or sequins) and chic, it will be in line with the occasion. 

Finally, while the absence of color (black and white) can be problematic, sometimes it's the excess of colors that will make your outfit a little too unforgettable from that day. Again, the theme may allow it, however, it is customary to wear tones that won't overshadow the bride in photos. Fuchsia, electric blue, apple green, or worse, gold and silver, are very eye-catching and may draw all the attention to you. 

If you have any doubts, always ask the bride if your dress choice for her wedding is appropriate. Don't want to disturb her? The bridesmaids are there for that!

A summer wedding is the perfect opportunity to wear your most beautiful light and colorful dresses. Cotton, chiffon, and satin are perfect fabrics for summer dresses. Prints are welcome to add some pep to your perfect outfit. A short dress in a fluid material will be ideal to withstand the heat while remaining chic.

Bright colors like red, yellow, or pink are perfect for celebrating the summer season. Don't forget to adapt your wedding outfit according to the reception venue and the time of the ceremony!

For a civil wedding, the outfit can be a bit more casual while remaining elegant. A chic pantsuit, a sophisticated jumpsuit, or an elegant dress will make a statement. The idea is to find a balance between simplicity and refinement.

Think of sober colors like navy blue, pearl gray, or beige. Les Petits Imprimés offers perfect pieces for this type of event!

This year, trends highlight bohemian dresses, vintage cuts, and flowing materials. Floral dresses and prints are also very present, bringing romance to your outfit!

Puff sleeves, backless necklines, and lace details are all elements that will make your dress a unique piece. Les Petits Imprimés have a beautiful collection that follows these trends, perfect for being at the forefront of fashion on this special day!

In summary, the choice of your outfit depends on several factors, but the main thing is that you feel beautiful and comfortable. Don't forget that the most important thing is to enjoy this exceptional day alongside the newlyweds! So ready to find the perfect dress for a wedding?
