If you want to wear both a skirt and trousers at once, then a good idea would be to combine these two things: complement the trousers with a light chiffon cape. This way you will be both elegant and feminine.
With a skirt
This image is the most classic of all presented. The bride can choose the most suitable length from:
- closed maxi (floor-length);
- discreet midi (approximately at knee level and below);
- or a revealing mini (above the knee).
The upper part of the suit usually consists of a flirty top, a business jacket, a fitted jacket, a tuxedo, a vest or even a tunic. Lately they have started wearing lace shirts and satin T-shirts.
The skirt itself, in turn, is divided into different types.
Fashionable tulip or balloon
This is an oval silhouette that resembles a flower, only upside down. The style does not have rigid shapes, does not hug the hips and legs, which makes the girl slim.
Advice! This option is ideal for slender, tall young ladies.
Popular pencil
The skirt in question is considered the most versatile among women. It is tapered at the bottom and its length is just below the knee.
It comes with a high waist and a peplum, which adds even more elegance.
Youth Bell
It has a convenient shape and somewhat resembles a bell bud, hence its name. Sometimes this model is called a flashlight skirt or skater skirt.
Advice! Suitable for owners of any figure - for slender girls it will emphasize the waist, and for curvy girls it will hide imperfections.
Ultra-fashionable - half-sun
Its cut, although simple, is incredibly feminine and slightly flared, and the special feature of the style is the soft gathers on the fabric itself.
For women with an hourglass body type, this is ideal.
Stylish godet or fish
This model belongs to the retro style, which combines brightness and elegance. It is expanded downwards in the form of peculiar wedges. All the advantages of the figure are visible in her.
A great idea to wear such a skirt for young ladies with a small waist and voluminous hips.
Pleated - timeless classic
The main difference between skirts of this type is their different folds, which are:
- counter – laid towards each other;
- one-sided - made in a certain direction;
- bow - distributed in different directions in an indefinite order;
- narrow;
- wide;
- group;
- straight;
- fan-shaped;
- asymmetrical;
- stitched a few centimeters.
Also, the folds can be in any quantity, they start from the waistband and end at the hem, thanks to this the model acquires a flexible and beautiful sway when walking.
Designers do not stand still; they have introduced many new products into the classic cut.
Today you can find options with one single opposite fold, located in the middle of the skirt or on one of the sides.
Discreet trapezoid or A-line
Its main feature is a cut that fits at the waist and widens at the bottom.
“Trapezoid” is perfect for newlyweds with an “inverted triangle” figure, because it visually adds centimeters to the volume of the hips.
Interesting pleated
It is sewn from light, flowing fabric, which is gathered into many folds; this method is called “pleating”.
In it, your image will be spectacular, sophisticated and feminine. But you need to remember that overweight ladies should be careful with this skirt.
Flirty tutu
The material for production is tulle, organza or mesh, which requires 10-15 thin layers. It turns out incredibly airy thanks to the steel frame that defines the shape. But there are also simpler ones, they are called “chopinki”, they are not supported by any base, and therefore flow down right to the floor. “Tuchs” are made either lush, multi-tiered, or with elastic.
The most suitable option for a wedding, because this fabric looks solemn and elegant. It's a good idea to complement the skirt with a lace or satin top.
With trousers
A more practical and non-standard choice of outfit for the newlywed, the models of which are varied.
The top of the trouser version can be the same as with the skirt.
Straight classic
The trouser leg can be completely flat or with strictly ironed arrows on the back and front. The most popular representatives:
- with elastic - an incredibly comfortable variety. Especially good for overweight ladies;
- wide - loose trousers and straight along the entire length. Suitable only for tall and slender girls. Look best in combination with classic stilettos;
- with arrows - visually lengthen the legs, so they are especially suitable for short brides;
- flared from the hip - a distinctive feature is the even, clear arrow on the side of the legs.
Sexy tight
These include several types:
- pipe trousers - they are tapered and fit the figure. Suitable for thin people with a model appearance and a straight vertical line of legs;
- Slims are narrow and high-waisted. Look great on newlyweds with short legs, helping to visually lengthen them;
- 7/8 - a short version to the ankle, tight-fitting and emphasizing the shape. Fits wonderfully on long-legged ladies.
Loose flared
They have a widening silhouette from the waist, hip or knee. Their length can be up to the floor.
Advice! It is worth considering that this look is absolutely not for short brides. Flares from the knee will look great on a slim person, and flares from the hip will look great on any figure.
Shortened
The pant leg can end anywhere from a few centimeters above the ankle to mid-calf. There are different options:
- classic skinny, capri or 7/8 trousers - have a tapered cut, but do not fit the leg tightly, the length reaches the middle of the calves;
- Chinos - a loose style with pockets on the sides and pleats at the hips;
- culottes - their distinctive feature is that they are wide and short.
Please note that this look is suitable only for tall brides; it will emphasize long legs and visually make you slimmer.
Skirt-pants
These trousers have a loose cut and comfortable fit; they resemble a skirt, which is why they are called that. They will perfectly hide your shortcomings, such as:
- massive build;
- angular figure;
- crooked legs;
- O-shaped and X-shaped.
Perfectly suitable for tall couples of any age.
Jumpsuits
In this outfit the bride will look creative and sexy. Overalls are:
- with an open back or neckline;
- with various straps;
- shortened;
- with flared or wide legs;
- and tight.
The look with it will be perfectly complemented by a stylish hat, a cute veil, gloves or a belt, as well as beautiful high-heeled shoes.
The scale of the celebration
First of all, organizational aspects should be clarified. Will the wedding ceremony be held at the registry office, or will the guests immediately go to the on-site registration procedure at the place where the banquet will be organized?
To decide on the image, it is worth taking into account the number of guests and the status of the establishment. If only the closest ones will attend the wedding and celebrate in a small cafe, an evening look will seem inappropriate. If the event is planned to be held on a large scale, in a restaurant with a dozen guests, then you need to take care of choosing a full-fledged festive look.
In addition, it would be a good idea to ask the newlyweds whether a dress code is required at the wedding. Some married couples prefer to organize a special event in certain colors, which should be on the clothes of the guests. In the photographs you can see options for successful outfits.
Some spouses, on the contrary, love an informal style, and therefore advise guests to come in comfortable attire. At traditional banquets, it is customary to dress in evening attire. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to wear a floor-length dress. If it is winter, then you will have to choose suitable outerwear.
Color spectrum
Of course, the most popular colors of suits for weddings are pastel colors:
- ivory;
- white;
- cream;
- Ivory;
- dairy;
- beige;
- creamy;
- honey;
- silver;
- champagne;
- peach;
- light blue;
- pink;
- apricot;
- pale yellow;
- mint;
- lilac.
But modern brides often prefer bright colors:
- blue;
- green;
- red;
- and sometimes even black, which, by the way, is a fashion trend in recent years.
It is ideal when the suit is made in one shade, a maximum of two, but no more. You need to ensure that your image looks either stylish and impressive, or gentle and romantic. But, in no case, not clumsy and colorful.
Accessories and shoes
When creating holiday styles, you should include exquisite accessories and luxurious jewelry in your ensembles to make the look holistic and organic. You can wear a thin gold chain or a thin pendant under an evening suit. Lace flowers and elegant brooches, compact beads made of natural stone or an exquisite bracelet are acceptable.
Long silver earrings or pearl clips will add femininity, and a satin scarf in the breast pocket will accent the style. Stylists do not advise overloading the image with massive elements.
Everything should be harmonious and in moderation, then you will look stylish and attractive.
As shoe samples, you can safely use elegant sandals with perforations and an open toe, patent leather shoes, decorated with ribbons or lace details. Ankle boots made of glossy leather and thin suede, boots made of textiles or lace are acceptable.
Shoes should be elegant and sophisticated. It is better to use light models that do not contrast with the outfit, but match in style and color.
Adviсe
- The outfit should highlight your strengths and hide your flaws. And also be comfortable and neat.
- A fitted jacket will look great on slimmer women.
- The oval neckline of the jacket will decorate a long neck, and the newlywed with a short neck will have a V-shaped neckline, it will emphasize the neckline.
- Curvy ladies will look great with high-waisted wide flared trousers in combination with a straight jacket or tunic, as well as godet-style skirts.

The maximum that a bride can afford is to expose her back or shoulders. The seams of underwear should not be visible under a girl’s suit. - The material for sewing needs to be appropriate, for example, satin, guipure, lace, chiffon, thick silk, taffeta or velvet.
The more complex the style of your outfit, the simpler it is to choose the fabric and vice versa. - For pregnant couples, a great idea would be to wear loose trousers with a full-length tunic.
- If your look includes a top, then it is necessary, first of all, to be comfortable, because you cannot take it off like a jacket.
Tops are decorated with lace, rhinestones, guipure, stones and colored patterns. Strapless or corset-style models look elegant. - Costumes do not require a large number of accessories on the girl; they are usually complemented with: lush frills, floral prints, appliqué or embroidery, a train, flounces, a cape, ribbons, a belt, rhinestones, sequins, stones or pearls.
It would be good to brighten up your appearance with a small tiara, neck pendant, brooch or gloves. - For footwear, the most appropriate option would be high-heeled shoes or stiletto ankle boots.
- Blondes and newlyweds with light brown hair look great in dresses of pastel shades - beige, ivory, ivory, cream, white, peach, soft pink or blue. Brunettes will suit flashy rich colors - red, blue, burgundy, and redheads will look most impressive in green or purple.
- The following accessories will be used on the girl's head: hats, veils, small tiaras, shiny hairpins or combs.
- Loose curls or elegant buns look most advantageous with suits.
- Add wedding elements: an attached train or a chiffon cape, so your look will become more festive, appropriate and varied. And having removed these attributes, you can wear it after the celebration.
Style compatibility
When choosing a set for the bride and groom, it is important to consider not only the compatibility of colors, but also styles.
- classic two-piece suits and three-piece suits will suit any style of dress: classic ballroom, loose and fitted, etc.;
- a tuxedo is ideal for dresses with an accentuated silhouette, including a goda dress;
- a tailcoat will look good with styles that have a full skirt.

Ideally, the collar looks with a straight skirt.
Floral decor
