Empire & Wrap Open Back Wedding Guest Dresses

How to Choose Empire & Wrap Open Back Wedding Guest Dresses

Empire lifts the waist to just below the bust and lets everything below fall away — the easiest silhouette to wear for a long day, and the one a pregnant bridesmaid can keep. The kindest cut for pregnancy and for anyone who wants nothing at the middle. Ask for the hem to be checked against a flat shoe as well as a heel.

A wrap bodice ties to the body rather than being sized to it, which makes it the practical pick when a party spans several sizes or is still changing shape. Adjustable at the waist, so one style fits a wider party. Secure the crossover before photographs and keep the tie flat.

An open back drops the seam well below the shoulder blade, so the dress reads plain from the front and becomes the detail as the party walks away. Needs a supportive bodice or corsetry built into the front. Skip the necklace and let an earring carry the jewellery instead.

Every shade is dyed to one standard across 0 shades, so a party mixing hems, necklines and cloths still reads as a single palette in photographs. Order up to 10 swatches free before you commit.
