Dress-code alert: in the morning, a knee-length dress or an elegant suit should be preferred, but never choose a long dress, not even for the most formal ceremonies. In the evening, however, you can choose between the classic sheath dress, the midi dress or the more elegant formal dress up to the feet. And for lovers of trousers, although not very common, the jacket-trousers suit can be a very sophisticated choice, if obviously attention is paid to the details.
As for the colors, absolutely banned white, black and red. Green light to soft tones (such as powder, mauve, light blue, sage and powder gray) if the ceremony is in the morning or to a more intense color palette if it takes place in the evening (from forest green to navy blue, without neglecting the less popular burgundy and teal), always preferring the solid color and leaving room for prints only for the morning, but never too large and noisy. Fabrics? Silk, velvet, chiffon, crepe and all light fabrics are preferred. Even lace can be chosen to embellish a dress, as long as it is not too sexy and favoring the lighter and impalpable versions for the evening. Take a cue:

The clutch or sachet models are forbidden, granted only in the late afternoon, even daring with glitter or more precious decorations.
