How to Wear a Jumpsuit to a Wedding
Perfectly striking the balance between refinement, elegance, and femininity, MERABI’s occasion jumpsuits are an indispensable addition to any wedding celebration. From a black-tie reception to a courthouse ceremony, a well-styled jumpsuit is guaranteed to make a lasting impression.
But are jumpsuits appropriate for weddings? And how do you style them accordingly? In this guide, we’ll explore the art of styling our wedding guest jumpsuits, covering everything from finding the perfect fit to accessorising with finesse, and our best selling options. Get ready to elevate your wedding guest wear and discover why a MERABI jumpsuit is the ultimate head-turning piece.
Can You Wear a Jumpsuit to a Wedding?
Jumpsuits are a great alternative to occasion dresses for wedding guests wanting to try a more chic and contemporary style without compromising on class and poise. These one-piece garments provide an elongated and tailored silhouette with the comfort and convenience of trousers – no more worrying about cooler evenings or finding flesh-coloured stockings.
As long as the fabric, fit, and styling adhere to the wedding's dress code, a well-chosen jumpsuit is a perfectly acceptable and stylish alternative to a traditional dress. Avoid traditionally ‘forbidden’ colours, such as white, ivory and colours too close to the bridal party’s scheme, unless told otherwise. When choosing a jumpsuit, make sure to choose materials appropriate for the event’s formality: opulent velvet, like our REGAN Black Jumpsuit for black-tie receptions and decadent dinners; lace jumpsuits, like the ELEANOR Red, for sun-drenched celebrations; and embellished and sequin jumpsuits, like LUCINDA Gold for late-night events.
NADINE MERABI’s luxurious range of wedding guest jumpsuits offers an array of designs to suit every taste and event, from cinched waists and wide-leg trousers to elegant embellishments and figure-flattering silhouettes.
How to Dress Up a Jumpsuit for a Wedding: Styling Guide
As with any designer piece, the key to dressing up a jumpsuit for a wedding is through choosing an appropriate design and thoughtful accessorising – there’s a fine line between complementing your jumpsuit with the right accessories and overwhelming it.
NADINE MERABI’s designer jumpsuits are crafted with couture-level details to ensure they shine on their own, but the right layers and accessories can elevate the look.
If you want your jewellery to do the talking, choose a jumpsuit that acts as a backdrop for your beloved pieces. Black jumpsuits are an ideal choice; versatile enough to complement any colour. Our INES Black Jumpsuit, with its rich black velvet fabrication and jewel-encrusted sweetheart neckline, offers a blank canvas for a statement necklace and matching pendant earrings.
You can elevate your jumpsuit even more by playing with layers and textures. If you’re opting for a solid, neutral-coloured piece like our black and white jumpsuits, add a touch of delicate romance by wearing our pearl HETTIE Bodysuit underneath. Otherwise, drape one of our tailored blazers over your shoulders for an added touch of structured refinement.
To complete the look, choose a pair of shoes that’s both comfortable and complements the look. Strappy heels and classic pointed courts are a common choice, as they elongate the leg and ensure the garment’s hem skims the floor to maintain an elegant drape.
However, a pair of elegant flats or boots can also add an elegant flair to your ensemble. Pointed flats and boots can be hidden under wide-leg trousers, mimicking the look of pointed heels.
