Once we hit the mid-March milestone, spring is officially just around the corner. And with it comes better weather and events season. Easter weekend usually marks the first of many formal occasions, including big birthday celebrations, the races, Wimbledon, and of course the other "W" word–weddings. Whether your best friend has hired a fancy pub in Islington or your distant cousin is saying "I do" in a French chateau, any tier of special occasion requires an outfit that makes you feel, well, special.
It's no secret, however, that assembling an ensemble for these formal events is one of the more difficult fashion dilemmas. Thankfully, Mango has stepped in to take the stress away. Event dressing is an opportunity to push boundaries with our personal style, and whilst timeless designs may dominate our regular wardrobes, dressing up allows us to play with all the extra details that event dressing has to offer—think feathers, bold colours, striking silhouettes and this season's biggest trend: corsages. Enter Mango's Capsule collection, a limited-edition edit dedicated to life's glamorous events, be it a black-tie party, a wedding or any celebration that can take your style up a notch.
True to form, Mango has its finger firmly on the fashion pulse. This exclusive collection exemplifies all the timely 2023 trends, with corsages, draping, suits and columns prominent throughout. Between the materials, finishes and elegant silhouettes, this edit is particularly elevated. Plus, Mango knows that the perfect party outfit doesn't have to include a dress—cue the considered tailoring, skirts and going-out tops that you can mix and match with your existing wardrobe. The palette is also something to consider: bright colours and cream tones take center stage here. These pieces are so elevated they're even sure to tempt many a bride-to-be.
Scouting out what to wear for spring's special occasions in good time allows you to invest in a piece you'll wear for many seasons and avoid panic-buying. So keep scrolling to get ahead of the season with Mango's new Capsule collection.
