15 Long-Sleeved Wedding Guest Outfit Ideas Guaranteed to Slay

Ahead, we’re spotlighting 15 long-sleeved winter wedding guest-approved styles that will keep you stylin’ even when Jack Frost has other plans. Seek solace in high necklines, longer hemlines, and a bevy of rich fabrics that knock down the chill factor, and you’ll be more than equipped for a magical season of “I dos.”

9. Self-Portrait Cropped Ruffled Guipure Lace and Crepe Jumpsuit ($280): Trying to one-up last season’s LBD, we see. Peep this contemporary lace jumpsuit from Self-Portrait that’s about to bring the pomp and circumstance.
10. Ted Baker Kaleesa Chelsea Flower Collar Dress ($265): Kate Middleton, is that you? Between the winter floral print and ladylike collar, this sophisticated dress will look right at home amongst the glittering snowscapes and winter village.
11. Diane von Furstenberg Long-Sleeve Scoop Neck Velvet Gown ($428): Can’t stand the elements? Cover up every inch of your body (we’re not kidding) with this jade green, textured velvet gown that requires your most prized teddy bear topper.
12. Lulus Besame Long Sleeve Velvet Maxi Dress ($76): Get in on the crushed velvet action with this burgundy showstopper featuring saucy cutouts and a thigh-grazing slit.
13. Ganni Jerome Lace Blouse ($280) + Ganni Jerome Lace Skirt ($225): Cool-girl brand Ganni swoops in FTW with a frilly antique lace blouse and coordinating pencil skirt that’s every bit as femme as it is romantic. We’re partial to the pretty scalloped edge.
14. Rebecca Taylor Scattered Star Print Smocked Dress ($650): File this pretty star-printed smocked dress under what to wear for all your upcoming winter wonderland-themed nuptials; just add a lavish camel coat and kicky white ankle boots for a look that dazzles day or night.
15. Rachel Parcell Collection Midnight in Madrid Dress ($260): While stark black may not exactly translate for the summer wedding circuit (too somber), who’s to say this frothy tulle creation — Swiss dots and all — can’t work for a black-tie ceremony in the French Alps? Pro tip: Bring snow boots and a toboggan hat.
