A wedding is the ideal occasion to recreate the look you have always dreamed of, but sometimes it is difficult to choose between so many options, styles and models.
Therefore, we want to give you a series of useful guidelines and recommendations to be the perfect guest at a wedding or evening event, since it dictates a more formal atmosphere and a protocol to follow.
What choice can I get right?
Cloth
What will really determine that an outfit is suitable to wear to an evening wedding is the fabric -and its details-, something that Javier Barrio always chooses carefully for each of his creations.
The outfit must be made of an elegant fabric (satins, silks, crepes, lace, velvet or satin) and may include details such as rhinestones, embroidery or fringes.
Colour
Color also matters a lot, being an evening wedding the colors matter as much as the garment. We advise you to use makeup colors, jewel or metallic tones, silver, gold, turquoise and lavender.
Dark tones become one of the most elegant and flattering options for weddings at night, and they are also ideal in cold seasons like the one we are approaching.
The outfit that will make you shine
Cocktail dress
Whether the wedding is in the afternoon or in the evening, almost always the dress that works will be a cocktail dress.
Long dress
However, a safe bet will be to wear a long dress, which is the highest etiquette female clothing and is part of the protocol, especially if it has transparencies, embroidery or crossed handles.
Jumpsuit
Even if what you are looking for is greater comfort and an elegant choice at the same time, do not hesitate to wear a jumpsuit or palazzo pants that, combined with the right elements, can be an ideal choice. This type of garment stylizes the figure and lengthens your legs.
The haute couture works created by designer Javier Barrio for this occasion stand out for their sensuality, opening the way for trends such as sheer dresses that accentuate the figure, or more daring choices with openings in the skirt that reveal part of the leg, or necklines that reach the lower back.
Plugins that work as the perfect ally
Jewelry
At this time of day, you can opt for more colorful jewelry and accessories that give you a more distinctive style, in addition to being an important ornament in your evening look, as long as your dress does not attract attention by itself, since in In this case you should opt for a simpler and more discreet necklace or earrings.
Headdresses or headbands
At parties or evening events there is no place for hats, but there is room for headdresses with a modest size. If you opt for a long dress with a headdress, you should try to make it complement the dress but in no case detract from it. It would also be a good option to choose a nice metallic headband or ornament for your hairstyle.
Handbags
The bag should be handheld and preferably small in size. Perfect with sequins or rhinestones motifs, however, so as not to fall into excess, better always accompanied with plain dresses.
Footwear
In Javier Barrio’s showroom you will find the most recommended footwear for this type of occasion. We recommend wearing thin and high-heeled shoes, preferably sandals, or with an open heel with mules.
