Avoid patterns and brightly colored fabrics or flowy silhouettes and opt for elevated and custom-tailored looks.

What is a black-tie optional wedding without a bit of sparkle? This glittery jumpsuit comes in a stylish multicolored hue that'll complement a fall or winter celebration. The wide-cut leg is right on trend and would look excellent paired with a strappy stiletto or heeled sandal. Sleek Metallics A slip dress is a wardrobe essential, but a fancy upgrade in a sleek metallic shade is ideal for formal events. The added shine along with polished details like a built-in bodice or folded cowl neckline feels a bit more dressy than a standard sheath. All the rules you make for the dinner jacket also apply to your bow tie.
Gorgeous textures work beautifully with the elevated formality of black-tie weddings. Rich velvets, shimmery sequins, and embossed materials always look appropriately luxe. You can also opt for bold statement jewelry, especially if you're wearing a more muted dress. In the winter, emerald color is a deep jewel tone that remains timeless.
What colors should you not wear to a wedding?
Well, a wedding is one of the most memorable days in one’s life. Therefore, it is vital to set the scene to be refined and unique. Additionally, the photographs will capture every person attending the event. Thus, the guests should understand what they need to put on to ensure the day is perfect.
Do not ever wear a floor length gown to a semi-formal wedding. Pin heels will keep getting stuck in the grass and could embarrass you. Not knowing the wedding dress code for a wedding can be so frustrating and confusing. You open a wedding invitation and you get lost on what wedding attire to rock.

Wearing anything too attention-grabbing or something that could be seen as an attempt to “upstage” the bride is also frowned upon. This also means erring on the conservative side when it comes to revealing black tie attire, particularly if the ceremony is in a place of worship. A full option tux is not a must for a semi-formal wedding.
Look for a silk or satin style that matches the rest of your wedding outfit. Experiment with patterned or colored options to match your tuxedo and tie. A mix-and-match wedding party is another way to switch up the look from traditional black tuxedos. Groomsmen's ties can match the groom's jacket for a subtle continuation of color throughout the group's outfits. This burgundy hue is on trend for fall and winter weddings—it's great for achieving a luxurious Hollywood glam vibe.
What Not To Wear To a Black Tie Wedding
You can wear a bow tie or go with a dark-colored tie in muted shades of blue, brown, or gray in keeping with the formal dress code. For instance, you can include “black tie recommended” in your invitation card instead of having a strictly black tie with a tuxedo dress code. This will help your guests stick to your dress code while experimenting a little with styles that make them feel comfortable. This deep green shade is another excellent color for formal wedding attire. The single-breasted suit jacket has notch lapels, padded shoulders and two-button fastening. Meanwhile, the regular-rise pants offer a slim, skinny fit in the same captivating shade.
For winter black-tie weddings, look for outfits crafted from warm and textured fabrics like lace and velvet. Certain details like dramatic skirts, classic necklines, and shimmering embellishments will instantly make a silhouette feel black-tie-worthy. And if you're looking for a foolproof black-tie outfit, you can never go wrong with a timeless black gown or jumpsuit.
