Any general advice for weddings?
It always makes me shudder when someone comes into the shop, and says "I'm looking for a wedding outfit." I invariably find that people do not know what they want to wear for a wedding, and they come in like rabbits caught in the headlight of a car, and say “I need a wedding outfit”. You need to do a bit of homework on this. If you're going to a wedding, you've got to think about if it's going to be an all day wedding, I'm going to be sitting in this outfit, all day, and so I need to be totally comfortable and relaxed. If you're just going to a wedding in the evening, then it's a different ballgame and the same rule would apply. You need to be comfortable. You've got to be briefed on the value. The golden rule that I would always say is great, you're going to a wedding and it's wonderful, it's going to be lots of fun and thrilling, but remember it's the bride's day. By no minor should you ever try to even want to have any eye on her whatsoever. It is the day for the bride. Don't compete. And whatever you choose should always be in the wings. Don't choose your outfit to ever draw attention. Don't be Elizabeth Hurley. It's not fair. It's the bride's day. Wear something that's subtle, that's pretty, that‘s attractive, and does justice to the occasion. You're going there to share their happiness and joy. You're invited to do so, and not to cause a stir.
