As you inch closer to your big day, laser-focused on fittings for the ceremony dress, your wedding after-party outfit might as yet be an (understandable) afterthought. Fret not: This is exactly the moment to start shopping for a look worthy of dancing until dawn. The after-party dress is another opportunity to showcase your personal style and embrace something less traditional. Consider it a subtle wink to guests that the celebrations are far from over.
Ideally, an after-hours look should feel playful and light. Whether you plan to be swaying seaside under the stars, twirling beneath a disco ball, or slow-dancing in a candlelit wine cave, we have you covered. From an effortlessly draped t-shirt dress from Coperni to a romantic cap-sleeved, lace-trimmed Chloe gown and a taffeta bubble-hem mini that harkens back to the ’80s in the most elegant way (by editor-favorite Danielle Frankel, no less), our picks have range. Footwear is key here, with comfort taking priority—whether that means a more conservative flat shoe or a 3.5-inch statement heel. The choice is yours.
