What is occasion wear?

There is nothing quite like it. You have been invited to attend a special occasion – a wedding, a ball or maybe Ladies’ Day at Ascot.

The event in itself will be exciting, a day to look forward to and one at which precious memories will be created…and you want to look (and feel) the part.

It’s essential to choose the right outfit for the occasion, that singular look which will look perfect on that day and in that place.

At the Wedding Shop, we have so many beautiful outfits from which to choose. We are, of course, famous for our stunning wedding gowns but we also have designs to wow at special occasions.

A wedding really is the ultimate special occasion, a joyous celebration of love and the union of families. It will be remembered for years to come and you want to make sure you have the perfect outfit whether you are the mother of the bride or groom or just an important guest.

Almost anything goes at weddings now… as long as it has style. It might be a stunning dress or suit, beautifully cut from satin or silk. But whether it is a classic style or modern chic, a bold maxi dress or elegant jump suit with pretty floral print, it must rise to the occasion.

At the Wedding Shop we also have dresses and suits for other notable occasions such as a charity ball or awards ceremony. These occasions ooze glitz and glamour as success is celebrated or funds raised for good causes. Long satin dresses created by famous designers breathe class and sophistication to ensure you will be the belle of the ball.

You will need to find something more practical – but no less stylish – for a day at the races. Ladies Day at Ascot, Cheltenham or Aintree have become festival highlights and events in their own right. Sharp cuts, bold colours and stunning designs all vie for attention in the fashion stakes. Body con dresses make a strong statement but don’t underestimate the appeal of the classic flowing finery.

So, whether it is a special Christening or formal garden party, a wedding or a day at the races, ensure you have the outfit to make the occasion a real event.
