The 2023 wedding season is upon us, and with it has come the inevitable wave of annual stress around finding an outfit for every event on your social calendar. As a 2023 bride, I can confidently say that we’ve reached a place where we almost have too many choices when it comes to LWD’s for everything from the engagement party to the rehearsal dinner to the bachelorette weekend and of course, the shower. Wedding TikTok is determined to make us believe that it’s not just the actual wedding dress that should evoke emotion, but every dress on the lead up to the big say should also be some version of "the one." Luckily for you, the Coveteur staff has spent enough time online shopping for all of us, curating the crème de la crème of what the internet has to offer when it comes to shower dressing for both the bride and the guest. Shop our picks below.
For The Bride:
Truman Set
Recommended by: Caroline Dunn, Manager, Sales & Brand Partnerships
Australian bridal brand KYHA is a go-to for the sleek, minimalistic bride who wants to feel both chic and on-trend. I highly recommend a visit to the brand’s Soho showroom if you’re in the NYC area as a true one-stop shop for your full bridal journey.
Gabrielle Sequin Robe
Recommended by: Caroline Dunn, Manager, Sales & Brand Partnerships
Wearing anything from Retrofete’s always makes me feel special, and there’s a reason that the Gabrielle Sequin Robe is a staple in basically every celeb’s closet. Bonus points for this dress as it’s just as perfect for the bachelorette weekend as it is for the shower.
Lace-up Blazer Dress
Recommended by: Leya Kaufman, Head of Brand, Publisher & SVP of Sales
If I could do it all over again, I’d worry less about staying classic, and more about standing out. This bridal blazer dress does both. I love it.
Naya Dress
Recommended by: Caroline Dunn, Manager, Sales & Brand Partnerships
I am living for the bridal bow trend and this dress from By Watters is truly speaking to me. It’s giving Elizabeth James from The Parent Trap in the best way, bridal tophat from *that* iconic scene optional.
For The Guest:
Moroccan Linen Jacket
Recommended by: Camille Freestone, Senior Style Editor
I’ve been obsessing over Folkloore’s linen jackets for a while now. The craftsmanship is outrageous (the embroidery is done by artisans in Marrakech). I love the idea of tossing this over a little slip dress to reimagine something already hanging in my closet.
Avalon Maxi Dress
Recommended by: Camille Freestone, Senior Style Editor
I’m constantly eyeing Vita Kin’s array of summer-ready dresses, but I’m particularly obsessed with their red avalon maxi dress. The black (detachable) bow adds the perfect element of contrast.
Anne Bow-shoulder Taffeta Midi Dress
Recommended by: Camille Freestone, Senior Style Editor
When I think bridal shower, I feel like I want a dress that feels sweet. This bow-shouldered dress from Kika Vargas definitely hits the mark. To keep it more casual, I would add a pair of flat mary janes or mules.
Tollero High-neck Sequin Ruched Mini Dress
Recommended by: Leya Kaufman, Head of Brand - Publisher & SVP of Sales
One of the best bridal showers I’ve ever been to took place at KYMA in the Flatiron District on a Thursday night. Think: endless appetizers, drinks-after-work energy, and an excuse to wear a cocktail dress. This is the kind of bridal shower look that would slay in the evening. It might not be “your party” but you should wear this anyway. It’s so good.
Diana Bead Macrame Midi Dress
Recommended by: Leya Kaufman, Head of Brand - Publisher & SVP of Sales
The next time I’m toasting to a close friend in a garden over mimosas, I want to be wearing this beaded macrame midi dress. It’s perfectly suited for a bridal shower but pushes the boundaries with beaded details in lieu of floral prints. I’m so here for it.
Blue Moon Dance Maxi Dress
Recommended by: Leigh Weiss, Affiliate Coordinator
For an outdoor, garden party-esque shower, I would opt for this Bec + Bridge dress. The muted green and blue pattern would blend well with the aesthetic. I also love that this dress comes in different colors seasonally.
Blossom Bliss Maxi
Recommended by: Leigh Weiss, Affiliate Coordinator
Bridal showers scream girly yet elegant, and this dress is exactly that. I love how the flowers add a unique– not overpowering–flare to the simplicity of the dress.
La Robe Bahia Tie-detail Minidress
Recommended by: Leigh Weiss, Affiliate Coordinator
This Jacquemus minidress is the perfect addition to your ‘special event’ wardrobe. It is simple yet complicated and refined in design.
