Wedding Guest Dress Etiquette, Are You Okay?
When you're invited to a wedding, the first thing you want to decide is your "guest dress." *You want to choose a guest dress that adheres to etiquette while also adding glamour to the wedding, right?♩
But... are you really okay with the wedding "etiquette"? Even if you think you know it, there might be things you didn't realize you didn't know, or there are quite a few things that many people are careful about which may not strictly be considered etiquette!
If You Don't Follow Dress Etiquette, This Might Happen...!
Not following etiquette can lead to embarrassing situations without you even realizing it.
And if, by chance, a member of the groom's family thinks, "A bride with a friend who doesn't know etiquette = the bride also lacks etiquette," then it could be quite serious!
Therefore, it is absolutely better to follow the etiquette regarding wedding dresses◎
Knowing Etiquette is Very Important◎
Nowadays, there are many guest dresses with a lot of flexibility, and it's said that you might be advised at a store, but later find out the dress you chose is considered a breach of etiquette...
Of course, there are opinions that say etiquette can be flexible on a "case-by-case basis," but that can only be said if you already know the etiquette.
Ideally, you should know the basic etiquette so that you can think, for example, "It's a 1.5 party, so a little casual is fine," but not knowing the basic etiquette can be a bit concerning.
So this time, we'll introduce guest dress etiquette and some recommended dresses♩
What is Guest Dress Etiquette?
First, let’s introduce what is generally considered "NG or commonly thought of as etiquette violations" when it comes to guest dresses.
✓ White dresses (White is the bride's color)
✓ Dresses that appear white in photos
✓ Off-shoulder dresses (Okay for evening events)
✓ Mini dresses (more than 5 cm above the knee)
✓ Dresses that cling to the body
✓ Dresses with excessive exposure (like large open backs)
✓ Fur materials
✓ Black materials (not necessarily a no-go, but advisable to avoid)
✓ Bi-colored dresses (it's safer to avoid this as well)
✓ Dresses the same color as the bride's changing dress (in cases where it's known in advance)
Dresses that many people generally consider to be etiquette violations or that are better avoided include the above.
So conversely, a "solid color dress that is not white (or appears white), not black, not the color of the bride's changing dress, has no exposed shoulders, and is knee-length" is generally acceptable!*
