Wedding season is quickly approaching, and while others might tell you to simply accessorize your favorite LBD—again—the best wedding guest suits and sets are perfectly apropos when celebrating your nearest and dearest. Sure, black-tie gowns and garden wedding guest dresses will always be an option, but why not try some playful alternatives? Sleek, coordinating suiting and refined separates feel unexpectedly modern and undeniably chic. After all, nothing says, “You two make a great pair,” quite like sporting a chic two-piece set.
Vogue’s Favorite Non-Traditional Wedding Guest Styles:
From a Gabriela Hearst powder pink suit that’s Bianca Jagger-worthy to a sharp, sexy black satin blazer courtesy of (who else) French brand Sandro, the best dressy pant suits for wedding guests are anything but stuffy. On the co-ords front, choose from Altuzarra’s blue satin skirt-and-top pairing, resplendent in florals (read: perfectly timed for spring nuptials), or an after party-ready silver sequin duo from Simon Miller. Whether you’re a tux girl or prefer something sparkly, shop 28 of the best wedding guest skirt and pants sets, ahead.
The Coordinated Sets
While dresses remain the quintessential one-and-done option for wedding guests, there is something equally easy about a matching set. It feels fresh (not to mention, a touch more unique). With options like Chloe’s coquettish cobalt-and-coral ruffle blouse and pencil skirt, Khaite’s ethereal pale yellow organza blouse and slinky midi skirt, or Heirlome’s sky-blue draped top and floor-grazing skirt, the coordinated set makes a confident case for itself—no second-guessing required.
The Elevated Suiting
When a woman opts for a suit—especially at a traditional affair like a wedding—it reads as distinctly individual. The choice carries a quiet confidence, subtly challenging convention; at the very least, in a sea of dresses, structured tailoring stands apart. Look to Destree’s icy blue cropped satin jacket and trousers, Liberowe’s dark cherry satin peplum jacket and coordinating shorts, and Sandro’s classic black tuxedo to prove that sharp suiting can be just as striking and statement-making as any gown.
