p.s. save this list if you like it because i'll be updating it occasionally with new dresses! let's face it, these sites have hundreds and hundreds of pages of clothing, and it's a nightmare to sift through. but i stand by the fact that you don't need to be spending hundreds of dollars on a dress, AND that you don't need to be wearing the sam...
i loveeee this style, material, shape, everything, super cool
Bexley Maxi Dress in Black
maybe more for a friday night vibe, but i love the material and pattern
Sheer Scarf Draped Plaid Mazi
ok this is kind of a hit or miss, but I think if you get a more fitted size, the drop waist and color/material of this could look really dope and classy
Slash Neck Satin Drop Waist Maxi
such a cool back with the ruffle draping, and i love the color and unique pattern
Ruched Side Drape Back Dress
such a unique shape, super elegant
Cape Maxi Dress
once again not sure if red is appropriate, but love the shape of this top
Maxi Dress in Deep Red
this is more simple than i typically like, but a good classic with a pretty neck and cool back
Tall Satin High Neck Berry
probably not fancy enough for a nice wedding, but if it's a bit more cas or a Friday night, I love this and the mixed materials
Cressida Maxi Dress in Black
i keep wanting to buy this dress for myself… so unique and a pretty print, love how sheer it is
High neck draped asymmetric maxi dress
another option that's still classy but super funky
Chloe Sheer Dress in Black
still haven't figured out if red is acceptable to wear to a wedding… but if it is i love a good ruffle
Raw edge ruffle maxi dress with tie
other than the slit, this is a great more modest option, the bias cut makes it look so much more expensive than it is
Weekday Boat Neck Bias Cut Satin Maxi
funky but also kind of classy
Lorenza Maxi Dress in Black
classy black dress with a bit of flair
Addison Strapless Dress in Black
obsessed with this dress, the gradient is so pretty and looks a lot richer than it is
Ruched bust cami godet maxi dress with scarf in ombre
i don't LOVE this ruffle, but i love the neckline and the back
Frany Backless Maxi Dress in Black
love me a big floral print
Slash neck floral mesh maxi dress
still don't know if red is ok to wear to a wedding BUT i personally feel the scarf trend will go out of style soon, but in the meantime i still think it's a fun addition
Addie Maxi Dress in Oxblood
i kind of think you need smaller boobs for this to be appropriate for a wedding but love the color. super simple but elegant and kind of sexy
Blair Halter Dress in Brown
i'm obsessed with the shape and flow of this dress. maybe for like a summer-y day before event. love the color, print, the way it flows, and super unique cut
Long sleeve cut-out maxi
such a pretty girly print, and love the combo of satin and chiffon
