How do I dress wedding smart but without a suit?

12 comments

1. Wear glasses. They make people look a little smarter

2. Trousers, Shirt & a tie oh and shoes. I hate wearing a suit as I don’t feel comfortable in one. My friends know me well enough so its this or I won’t be going to the wedding. You could wear a nice cardigan instead of a suit jacket?

3. Do the propeller hat

4. A pair of jeans that show your bulge.

5. Is this a “Don’t have a suit”, a “Don’t wan’t to wear a suit” or a “The wedding doesn’t specify suits” deal?

   A nice shirt, tie, black slacks, black shoes, large shiny belt buckle and sunglasses (if outside) can give a good look. I had decent results with that before, medium blue shirt, silver tie and a 4″ Superman sybol belt buckle.

6. Brown shoes with a shine finish, tube socks with a plaid design. High water khaki pants, rolled up past your ankles. Black belt. Suspenders, bright colors. For your shirt, you’ll need only a solid color button down, no vest.

   And to finish it all off. Pocket protector with a minimum of 4 pens.

7. Black shoes.

   Dress Shirt.

   Trousers or jeans

8. A pair of chinos, simple dress shoes or a nice pair of sneakers, a nice button down and a sport coat.

9. Get your clothes fitted. It will make a world of a difference. I’m not kidding. There’s a fine line between stylish and sloppy and it’s usually just a thread. (Professionally installed thread, but you get the point)

10. Shirt, tie, nice shoed, some dtess casual trousers.

11. Low-cut ballgown.

12. Why don’t you want to wear a suit? Weddings are some of the best places to show up, all decked out. Unless you’re the groom, for summer weddings you turn up in seersucker or linen, and have a blast.
