admin One of my closest friends Nellie Eden got hitched to another friend Andu Masebo in an intimate ceremony in Pisa, Italy, on one of the hottest days of the summer, which meant I needed to be strategic with my styling choices so I didn’t melt into a puddle. I opted for a blush Simone Rocha dress with green sequins which is made from a breathable mesh and gave me enough ventilation to go the distance. My make-up was another story, however, but sturdy sunglasses from Thistle Brown’s new sunglasses brand, Thistle, were the ideal accessory.
Wedding weather is notoriously unpredictable—rain, humidity, blazing heat and gale-force winds should all be prepared for. Thankfully, fashionable hoods courtesy of Saint Laurent, Ferragamo, and Alaïa, toweling fabric like the below bodysuit from All-In and easily wiped-down heels in PVC make for chic element-resistant options.

New York’s premier downtown PR Gia Kuan—one of the most colorful and boisterous dressers I know—had one simple request for her wedding guests: “more is more”. I thought a lot about what that statement would mean to her and what she would like to see me in and what might make her smile. A Molly Goddard personal order I made hastily, but thankfully, was the perfect option. Lime green, purple tulle, and red shoes ended up being an unlikely, but fabulous, combination that suited the wedding’s vibe. My takeaway? If there is a dress code, have fun with it, and don’t just opt for the safe option. There’s always time for a simple slip. Your bride and your iPhone snaps will thank you later.
