If finding a wedding guest dress is baseline overwhelming, waiting until the last minute to search for one can be pure chaos. If you’re just starting to figure out an outfit for the fall nuptials on your calendar, the good news is that you have options. Fall weddings offer far more sartorial flexibility than they get credit for. Fluctuating temperatures mean that you can get away with bending the rules a bit when it comes to materials, color palettes, and lengths (pending attire direction). And while rich jewel tones remain a timeless choice, the influx of bright hues coming out of fall 2022 runway shows has sprung all sorts of formal dressing possibilities this season.
To spare you the maddening quest of looking for a fall wedding guest dress, ELLE.com sifted through, quite literally, thousands of dresses online and put together a list of dress ideas with every budget, body size, and attire suggestion in mind. Ahead, our favorites to shop now.
