Once wedding planning is in full swing, you’re bound to have a slew of bridal-related events in your future. With so much on your plate, choosing outfits that match your style, are comfortable, and stay on budget can be a challenge– and that’s what we’re here for!
If you find yourself staring at the closet wondering “What kind of clothes do I wear to my bridal shower?” there are a few style options that make the choice easy. White is always appropriate, although you don’t have to wear white; seasonal colors are fine. Usually, bridal shower dress codes are fairly casual or match the typical style for a venue. The key is to look chic and polished, but still feel comfortable mingling, playing games, and toasting to your future.
Choose an outfit that isn’t too restrictive and feels like you, and you’ll be golden. Ready to find the perfect affordable bridal shower dress? Lulus has you covered. These are some of our favorite bridal shower outfit options for brides, no matter the season or aesthetic!
Lace is always a good idea–and how often do you get to wear a white lace dress to a party? So take advantage of your bride status with a frock in this ultra-bridal fabric. Lace dresses tend to have a cute or elegant look to them, so styling them with dainty jewelry or pearls always looks great.
If you’re looking for something that isn’t plain white, go for a delicate floral print. A white floral dress is pretty and romantic, and a great way to add a pop of color while still maintaining that bridal aesthetic.
Bows on a dress create instant It Girl appeal and add instant chic to any silhouette. A bow embellishment is like an instant accessory– add another one to your hair for more girlypop glam, or keep things simple and let the dress speak for itself.
A little white dress is perfect for a bridal shower, especially if you’re planning on a traditional long white dress for your wedding itself! This is your chance to wear something fun and casual, but still beautiful and bridal.
Long sleeves are a great way to avoid the sun or stay warm at a cool-weather shower. Elegant details like lace, mesh overlays, and elevated fabrics can add an extra dimension to your bridal shower outfit.
Long maxi dresses are so elegant, and a white maxi dress looks extra bridal. The flowy and flattering silhouette of the dress ensures both comfort and effortless style.
A white jumpsuit is a fabulous choice for your bridal shower. A jumpsuit’s sleek, tailored silhouette is modern and chic– and it’s a complete outfit in one garment!
