Vogue's Guide to Beach Wedding Guest Dresses

Vogue has curated a selection of 32 beach wedding guest dresses, emphasizing fabric, color, and length considerations for seaside ceremonies. The guide suggests not overthinking the outfit, recommending options from classic Pucci prints to bold Proenza Schouler reds or painterly Ulla Johnson patterns. Decoding the venue is key: a Maui luau calls for bold colors or tropical patterns like La DoubleJ sunset hues or Simkhai sparkly minis, while a Nantucket affair suits sweeter styles like Rosie Assoulin pastel yellow plaid. The article advises leaning into coastal-inspired colors, airy fabrics, and playful aesthetics, with brands like Dries Van Noten, Staud, and Zimmermann fitting the theme.
