5. A flowy floral tiered dress that screams fun yet ~refined.~ If you're riding out that in-between business casual and black tie affair, get you a dress that does both.
6. A whimsical burgundy dress that's giving modern renaissance vibes. Not only will you be able to dance in this gorgeous tulle piece, but your dancing will also be enhanced by the spins this baby can give. 💃
7. A velvet floral maxi dress that will feel as good as it looks. When the occasion is black tie but you want to add a little oomph to the standard floor-length gown, this is your gal.
8. Or an off-the-shoulder velvet piece for another style option in winter's most beloved fabric. Slip this emerald midi dress on like a glove and worry not about who's best dressed (aside from the bride, of course). Hint: it's you.
9. A simple but elegant cutout dress that's in a cool sage green for those who want to show some skin but aren't totally out of touch with the reality that is cold weather. Life is about balance.
10. A lacy mermaid look to enhance your silhouette but leave room for those dancing shoes, whatever they may be. And if they're pumps, we're crossing our fingers for you that the evening is painless.
11. A silk, flowing dress that will have you looking like a chic dark goddess version of the salsa dancing emoji in real-time. Now say that three times fast.
12. A high-neck dress that will hang close to the body up top and hang loose to the body where it's essential for some late-night twirling.
13. A slick red midi that will surely be a fiery topic of discussion. With its unique cutout, asymmetrical neckline, and high slit, it's a definite fearless move...only for those who like to be ~daring.~ 🔥
14. A purple strapless bodycon that abolishes the springtime affiliation with floral by putting a dark, velvet, and mystic spin on it. It's perfect for a winter wedding where you want your look to be unique yet elegant.
15. A ruffled boho-style dress that is flowy and easy to accessorize. It's the perfect sidekick for a winter wedding, especially when paired with a long camel coat, but is also easy to recycle for all of the seasons.
16. A bronze metallic long-sleeve gown for when that winter wedding needs a little *shine* against the dreariness outside. This disco-glam look might be just what you need!
17. A velvet dress with a plunging neckline that will make your look the talk of the reception. What a statement you'll make as you wait in line for the buffet.
18. A long-sleeve mini dress to do up with black tights and high boots. When the long-dress winter is starting to feel too limiting, pick a long sleeve with wiggle room for what you can pair it with down low. Colored stockings, Western boots, or even fleece-lined leggings (no one has to know). Just because the weather is stale doesn't mean your outfit should be.
19. An asymmetrical sequin dress for a chic twist on the metallic look. It's giving silver medal to the bride's gold vibes and that's a title we're happy to take.
20. A vintage-inspired rusty rose dress with jacquard detail and a long ruffle across the chest that adds a little pizazz to a simple satin dress. You'll look like a '70s style icon ready to take on the open bar.
21. A clean lilac number that may play coy to a hot pink dress but still has all the attention-grabbing skills of one. You might as well be in the bridal party with the attention you'll stir up in this.
22. A classic layered dress that gives life to the standard gray dresses we're used to. With a wintery color palette that's still playful, it's simple but universal when you're in a pinch for what to wear.
23. An off-the-shoulder blue-grey dress that is a perfectly polished and graceful look when you're trying to jazz up the floor-length gown.
24. A versatile slate blue satin long-sleeve that would look to die for under a white faux fur jacket. Its square neck and balloon sleeves give off romantic, Shakespearean feels while its shorter hemline adds a touch of modern playfulness.
25. A lacey Swiss dot dress that is a timeless style choice you'll be proud to post throwback photos of for years to come.
26. A classic LBD that will hug the body and perfectly complement your shape all while remaining low maintenance and effortlessly cool. Plus, it's so versatile, you can actually wear it again and again instead of letting it languish in the back of your closet with the dress you wore to the last wedding you went to.
27. A black and burgundy burned velvet dress that screams elegance and whispers *daring.* With its asymmetrical hemline, you'll look the perfect balance of I'm ready to dance and I'm ready for the camera.
28. A hot pink halter dress with a low back that will instantly bring attention to you but in a way that won't scare off the in-laws. Eyes will be drawn to this vibrant number and we have a feeling you'll be the flower girl's (second) favorite dress of the wedding.
29. A mock-neck satin number that will match the champagne in its color and its bubbly yet tasteful energy. If you want a neutral winter look but don't want to settle for a bland color, opt for this.
30. A romantic maxi dress that literally takes all the steps to make sure you're warm but still looking your absolute finest throughout the day (and into the evening when the party really starts).
