The Non-Dress
The easiest way to up the sartorial stakes this country wedding season? Pass over the usual wedding guest dresses and opt for a jumpsuit or skirt and top combination. This also lowers the chances of an outfit clash with a fellow guest. Dress up a silk jumpsuit (the perfect outfit for hours on the dancefloor) with pretty heeled sandals and a statement clutch.

Vivetta Mint Jumpsuit, £712
Bambah Full Midi Skirt, £859
The Accessories Edit
The easiest way to inject some fun into your country wedding outfit? Add a playful clutch, statement jewels or some colourful shoes. Remember if the wedding is outdoors to wear appropriate footwear, kitten heels look much less elegant when they’re sinking into a lawn.
