How to Elegantly Style Yourself? Tips for Wearing Pants Dresses as a Guest at a Wedding*

Is a "Pants Dress" Appropriate for a Wedding Invitation?

Traditionally, dresses for wedding invitations have been:

☑ Knee-length

☑ Not white

☑ Less revealing

These are common standards. Many dresses are easily recognizable as "just for weddings," which can be a bit embarrassing, especially for those who think, “I don’t want to wear a knee-length skirt!!”. This aspect can also make it a painful fashion category for some.

Recently, weddings themselves have become more casual, so we’re seeing an increase in midi-length dresses and long guest dresses...

What do you think about attending a wedding in a "pants dress"? (You see it occasionally, right!!!)

Pants Dresses are OK for Wedding Invitations!

It’s perfectly fine to wear a pants dress for a wedding invitation.

However, because pants dresses tend to be more casual than regular dresses, it's safer to avoid them for formal weddings held in high-end hotels or when attending as a guest of honor or family member.

They are recommended for casual guesthouse weddings, restaurant weddings, smaller weddings, or when attending only for the after-party.＊

How to Choose a Pants Dress

When selecting a pants dress, it’s advisable to pick one that isn’t too casual.

For example, choose one with lace or embroidery,

When choosing dark colors like black or navy, make sure to accessorize with necklaces, earrings, or clutches to make it look more festive.♩

What About Shoes, Accessories, and Bags?

To avoid looking too businesslike in a pants style, it’s recommended to use accessories to create a festive impression suitable for a wedding.＊

Heels are a must. A height of 7cm or more will help your feet look elegant.◎

Don’t skip stockings just because they are less visible, and avoid wearing shoes that you normally wear.

Accessories are essential; selecting larger or longer pieces will create better balance than smaller ones.◎

If in doubt, opt for a longer pearl necklace for a good match.♩

For clutch bags, opt for larger ones that have a strong presence or choose smaller but sparkling and unique ones. Selecting a different color from the pants dress will help avoid a lack of contrast.◎
