Aje Wedding Guest Dresses: The Luxury Handbags Edit

Aje has quietly become a wedding-guest staple, and it is easy to see why. The label does the two things a guest dress needs, a strong silhouette and a fabric that moves, and it does them across every dress code from garden party to black tie. This is the Luxury Handbags edit of Aje dresses to wear as a guest, grouped by how formal the day is.

For a black-tie and evening wedding

Reach for a gown with structure. The Nisha gown and the Cleo gown hold a clean line and photograph beautifully after dark. Keep the styling quiet, a heeled sandal and gold jewellery, and let the dress lead.

For a garden and daytime wedding

A fluid maxi in a soft print is the easy answer. The Violette bubble-hem maxi and the Clara maxi carry colour without shouting, and they sit well with a flat sandal on grass. A compact clutch finishes it.

For a cocktail wedding

A midi with a defined waist is the versatile pick. The Mathilde maxi works shortened on the eye with a heel, and a corseted Aje bodice reads as considered rather than fussy. This is where the label is most at home.

A note on colour

Skip white and ivory out of respect for the couple, and be wary of head-to-toe black for a daytime celebration. Aje gives you plenty of room in sage, ocean blue, dusty pink and a placed floral, so there is no need to reach for either. Browse the full designer dresses and the Aje edit, and see how to style Aje for finishing touches.
