Why you can trust us
You won’t be surprised to hear that the fashion team at Glamour has researched, shopped, tried-on and road-tested more than a few dresses. It is our job, after all. We also both got married over the last couple of years, meaning bridal trends are still very much on the top of our radar.
Neither of us ended up with a separate evening wedding dress, but if we had, then Georgia would’ve looked to either Galvan or Nadine Merabi, while Charlie wouldn’t be able to resist Rodarte, if the budget allowed, or ASOS Design’s draped halter gown for a much more affordable option. All of which could easily be dyed a new colour for a romantic update every anniversary thereafter… That’s how we’d justify a slightly pricier option, anyway.
How we test the best evening wedding dresses
As we said, we both opted for one style for our own weddings, but we do know a good dress when we see one. Having each spent a decade discovering brands, analysing fabrics, sitting front row at fashion shows, attending press days and grilling designers, we’d like to think that our trained eye is more accurate than ever. So we’ve put together our ultimate guide of options that we truly believe nail it across the board. What makes them so great? Chic styles, sure, but also short delivery times, varied silhouettes, broad size ranges, thoughtful fabrics, stock availability and product quality.
So after well over a decade of both professional and personal research, we can confidently say that the dresses in this edit are not only worth your consideration, but are also ones you’ll genuinely love forever, long after all the wedding excitement has settled…
