Blue maxi dresses

Q: How do you style a blue maxi dress?

It honestly does a lot of the work for you. For day, keep it easy with flat sandals , a denim jacket and a tote. To dress it up, add strappy heels, a clutch and a little gold jewellery and you are ready for almost anything. Navy loves gold and tan, while brighter blues like cobalt look great with white, denim or a hit of metallic.

Q: Is a blue maxi dress ok for a wedding guest?

Yes, blue is one of the safest and most-loved guest colours. It stays well clear of bridal white, suits every kind of venue, and photographs beautifully. A floaty pale or sky blue maxi is lovely for a daytime or beach ceremony, while navy, cobalt or royal blue in satin works for a formal evening reception. Just avoid anything so pale it could read white in photos.
