It seems like wedding season is always upon us these days with the onslaught of post-pandemic ceremonies. There are plenty of modern and fresh takes on classic weddings that leave guest attire to range. The age-old "rule" of not wearing black to a wedding is no longer conventional. But it's still important to choose an elevated style and material when picking a black dress to make it feel wedding appropriate.
With four upcoming weddings, I'm opting for black dresses for rewear value. Whether attending a winter wedding, a black-tie wedding, or a more casual wedding, a black dress is always a fit. Use accessories to differentiate or dress up little black dresses for specific occasions.
I've shopped out the best black dresses on the market right now for a variety of weddings. Shop the perfect LBD for your next celebration below.
