Many girls, imagining themselves as brides, dream of a fluffy dress reminiscent of a princess’s outfit. But with age, preferences change; not all newlyweds adhere to traditional canons when planning a celebration. The newlyweds' outfits also often differ from the generally accepted ones.
If a girl wants to be original, then she can choose a trouser suit instead of a dress. Of course, a bride's trouser suit should be different from everyday models. It should be an elegant, beautiful and memorable thing.
When will it be appropriate?
When planning a wedding celebration, you first need to decide on the format of the event. If this is a traditional wedding with a wedding and reception, then you should abandon the idea of wearing trousers. Or use a trouser suit as an additional outfit that you can change into when the formal part of the holiday is over.
If the wedding is supposed to be informal, then the bride can wear a beautiful suit instead of a dress. This decision is often made by women who remarry. They already had a white fluffy dress in their life, so a smart suit would be an excellent choice.
In addition, a trouser suit is often chosen as a wedding dress by practical girls who believe that buying an expensive dress for one day is irrational. The suit can be worn after the wedding, if not as a complete set, then separately.
In addition, a trouser suit can be chosen as a wedding dress by a bride who wants to be original. Still, in our wedding palaces you can rarely see a newlywed in such an outfit, so the couple will undoubtedly create a sensation.
Guest outfits
The rules for choosing an outfit for a wedding guest are simple. The choice of costume depends on the format of the celebration. If this is a banquet in a restaurant, then you can choose an evening suit with a long skirt. And for a small party in a cafe, a more discreet option is better, for example, a set of a medium-length skirt and top. When holding a wedding picnic in nature, it is best to choose a comfortable suit with trousers.
- Suits with short skirts are quite suitable for young girls, but extreme minis should still be avoided.
- Young guests can experiment by choosing models with an unusual cut.
- But older ladies should give preference to the classics. A classic suit is an ideal choice for a guest aged 50+.
What color should the guest wear? There are no special restrictions, with the exception of black and white. But it’s still better to choose light and joyful shades; after all, a wedding is a cheerful holiday, so dark colors are inappropriate for it.
Guests can also choose suits with prints; the main thing is to avoid clothes that are too colorful. You should not choose an outfit heavily embroidered with sequins or studded with rhinestones. As a rule, a wedding is a daytime event, so excessive shine in the guests’ outfits will be clearly inappropriate.
A suit for a wedding is a very good choice of clothing for both the bride and female guests. There are many models of elegant suits, so you can choose an option that is ideal for a woman of any age and any type of figure.
What should it be?
When choosing a bride's wedding suit, many girls consider external attractiveness to be the main selection criterion. Meanwhile, an equally important characteristic is the convenience of the model. Before you buy clothes, try them on to see how comfortable you are in them. Please note that on your wedding day you will not stand motionless, as in the fitting room, you will have to move and dance. Therefore, the suit should not restrict movement.
Even minor inconveniences should be a reason to refuse a purchase. After all, you will have to spend almost the whole day in these clothes. And a clasp that rubs your skin or a strap that constantly falls off will turn from a small nuisance into a huge problem.
Styles
The styles of trouser suits for the bride are varied; when choosing an option, take into account the characteristics of your figure.
Pants style
The lower part of the ensemble is represented by trousers. The style can be any. Fashionable skinny trousers just above the ankle length are perfect for slender and long-legged people. If the bride's height is small, then it is better to choose trousers of classic length, that is, reaching approximately the middle of the heel of the wedding shoes.
The most universal choice would be straight classic trousers; they suit everyone without exception. If a girl has a pear-shaped figure, then the ideal choice would be trousers that flare from the knee or from the hip. This style helps balance the figure.
Please note that pockets and other decorative details visually add volume, so it is better to choose trousers with the most laconic cut.
Choose a fit that is comfortable for you; most girls will suit models with a medium rise.
An interesting solution could be a suit in which the lower part is represented by a skirt-trousers. These are trousers with such wide legs that in a static position they resemble a bell skirt. It is recommended to sew such a model from soft but heavy fabric that falls beautifully downwards without hugging the legs.
Top style
The upper part of a trouser suit for a wedding can be represented by a variety of models. This can be a classic jacket or an informal jacket combined with a top or blouse. This option is good because during the holiday the jacket can be removed if it suddenly gets too hot.
Another good option for a top could be a smart tunic. This is an ideal choice for overweight women, as a properly selected tunic helps hide figure flaws.
A suit consisting of low-rise trousers and an empire-style tunic would be an excellent choice of wedding attire if the bride is expecting a baby.
This outfit, made of plastic fabric, flows beautifully, gently hugging the figure, and does not create discomfort for the expectant mother, since the loose lower part of the tunic does not put pressure on the stomach.
Plume
If the bride wants to be original, then she should add a train to her wedding trouser suit. This detail is attached to the belt of trousers or to the top (depending on the style), it can transform even the most modest suit, turning it into a luxurious outfit.
The convenience of a removable train is that this part can be removed after the completion of the formal part. This will make your outfit more comfortable and transform your image, because it will seem that the bride has completely changed her outfit.
The train can be single- or multi-layered. The first option is light and floaty, the second is more fluffy and original. The layers in a multi-layer train can have different lengths and be sewn from different types of fabrics.
The trains differ in length. A long model is certainly more impressive, but walking in an outfit with a long train is not very comfortable. At the formal part, the long train of the wedding dress is usually carried by children from among the guests. In addition, the train can be worn over your hand. Short train options are more convenient, as they do not create discomfort when moving.
Witness costume
The bridesmaid or bridesmaid is an important figure in the wedding celebration. Her task is to help the newlywed in everything, to ensure that the holiday goes off without any hiccups. Therefore, you need to choose clothes taking into account the fact that the girl will spend most of the day on her feet.
Therefore, the witness’s costume must be comfortable. In addition, the outfit should be stylish and fashionable, but in no case should it overshadow the bride’s outfit.
Immediately avoid suits with very short skirts or deep necklines.
Excessive sexuality of the outfit in this case will be unnecessary. Choose a simple but elegant outfit, preferably with a twist. Still, a friend’s wedding is not an ordinary event, so you shouldn’t come to the celebration in a casual suit.
The bridesmaid is advised to coordinate her outfit with the bride. So, if the newlywed chooses a strict classic suit, then the witness should not wear an outfit with a very full skirt.
An important point is the choice of color of the witness’s outfit. If the bride is dressed in a white or light outfit, then it is better for the bridesmaid to choose a colored suit in a rich, but not too bright shade.
For example, burgundy or purple. The fact is that if the witness is dressed in light-colored clothes, then in the photo her outfit will blend in with the bride’s outfit. And too bright a costume of the witness will distract attention from the hero of the occasion.
Fabrics
It is very important to choose the right fabric for a wedding suit. Making the wrong choice can be a source of discomfort. In addition, if the fabric does not match the intended style, then the model simply will not look good.
It is best to give preference to fabrics made from natural raw materials with a small addition of synthetics. This material allows air to pass through well, so the bride will not feel discomfort. The most commonly used fabrics for sewing wedding suits are silk, satin, chiffon, and lace.
The fabric must match the intended style. So, if you plan to sew a suit with wide, flowing trousers and a tunic, then you need to choose thin fabrics that drape beautifully, forming soft folds. To sew a suit with a formal jacket, you need fabric that holds its shape.
A wedding suit can be made from different fabrics. For example, trousers and a top are made from thicker fabric, and a jacket is made from lace.
Spring looks
In the spring, you can wear a bright suit in red, coral, pink, blue, light green or yellow for a wedding. This could be a combination of slices and a single-breasted jacket based on suiting fabric.
An elegant set that includes satin skinnies, a lace tank top and an organic satin jacket will add luxury to a woman’s look. Cotton slices with a straight cut and a jacket with glossy lapels are acceptable. Spring models are decorated with rhinestones, glass beads, stones, velvet or lace.
Color
You can choose the color of your wedding trouser suit to suit your taste. But still, the best option would be the white version. Since the style of your outfit is original, the color can be traditional.
If you don’t want to follow traditions, then you can choose a different color option, but it’s still better to stick to light pastel colors. Cream, ivory or tea rose suits look great. Choose a shade that suits you to be irresistible at your wedding.
A bright wedding trouser suit is the choice of brave brides who want to be original in everything.
Rules for choosing a suit
When going to the wedding of a friend or relative, you need not only to choose a good gift for the newlyweds, but also to prepare a suitable outfit. You need to look stylish, fashionable and appropriate. In addition, it is important not to “compete” with the bride, so overly outrageous outfits should be avoided.
Before you buy an outfit, you need to clarify the format of the celebration. If the wedding will take place in the banquet hall of a restaurant, then you can choose a classic suit and stilettos.
And if the newlyweds decide to celebrate their wedding on the beach, then such an outfit will be clearly inappropriate, if only for the reason that walking on sand and pebbles in stiletto heels will be uncomfortable. And in a tight skirt with a jacket at a beach party, the guest will feel out of place.
Perhaps the newlyweds have special wishes for the appearance of their guests. For example, it is now fashionable to hold “colored” weddings, when all the decorations and outfits of those present are in the same tone. Or the newlyweds have planned a themed wedding, for example, in the style of the 20s, then you need to select an outfit that matches the spirit of the declared era.
If there are no wishes from the organizers of the holiday, then the color of the suit can be chosen at your discretion. There are only two “taboos” for a wedding guest. Her outfit should not be white, as this is the color of the bride.
In addition, you should not wear a black outfit to the celebration, since such a suit looks too mournful. But a black and white suit, in principle, is acceptable, although it is still better to choose a colored outfit.
Accessories
The wedding look must be thought out to the smallest detail, so it is very important to choose the right accessories. As a rule, shoes are matched to the color of the trousers, but this rule can be broken. For example, if the wedding suit is modest and laconic, then the emphasis can be placed on accessories by choosing silver pumps decorated with shining crystals and a clutch with a similar decor.
A classic veil should not be worn with a trouser suit. But these clothes go well with a variety of hats, as well as beautiful hair accessories - tiaras, headbands, hairpins with pearls, etc.
Jewelry is a must-have addition to a wedding look. You need to choose jewelry or decorations in accordance with the image. So, if you have a high hairstyle, then you can wear long earrings; small earrings or studs are more suitable for a hairstyle with curls.
The bracelet should be worn if the jacket or tunic has short sleeves. A neck decoration is worn if you choose a top with a deep neckline or open shoulders.
A wedding trouser suit is an original and stylish outfit for the bride. If you carefully think through your image, the ensemble will look charming. It is not inferior in beauty and femininity to a traditional wedding dress.
