When it comes to your closet, Saks Fifth Avenue is a treasure trove of everything from the latest fashion trends to wardrobe staples. And, it’s also a must for more formal occasions—like a dress to wear to that upcoming wedding.
Looking for an outfit that is dressy while still feeling seasonally appropriate is deceptively difficult. Fear not, We researched dozens of wedding guest dresses on Saks Fifth Avenue and carefully considered everything from style to season and dress code, as well as fabric quality, color options, and price. We also consulted Samantha Brown, a New York-based stylist, for shopping and styling expertise. According to Brown, you’ll want to wear a dress that fits perfectly but is also comfortable enough to eat and dance in. “This will ensure that your mind is on the experience, and not on whether or not you’re wearing the right thing,” she explains.
