The Best Wedding Suits For All The 2024 Power Brides Out There
From Reiss to Galvan, these are the chicest two-pieces for modern nuptials.
Cut through the noise with styling advice you can trust from Editors who know what they are talking about. From upcoming brands to watch and high-street brands of quality to heritage fashion houses with flair and vintage options to consider, inform your shopping with ELLE Edits.
Bianca Jagger's iconic YSL skirt suit, Olivia Palermo's cashmere jumper, Solange Knowles' Stéphane Rolland jumpsuit – sometimes the best bridal outfits don't involve frothy meringue layers, fussy tulle petticoats or OTT sequins. In fact, you don't have to wear a dress at all on your big day.
Wedding suits for women are on the rise. Tailoring has taken over womenswear in the past few years, its return to the casual-wear realm expanding dress codes just about everywhere from the office to dinner parties.
If you love the nod to both nonchalance and power that a two-piece brings, consider wearing a suit to your wedding. When you take the uncomfortable corsetry and heavy skirts out of the equation, suddenly you'll feel a hell of a lot less nervous walking down the aisle – and you won't feel restricted during the dinner or dancing, either. The best advice we have? Buy a white suit for your wedding and you'll definitely wear it again. No one-hit wonders here.
While Galvan and Roland Mouret's impeccable tailoring is undeniably the best in the business, fashion's current penchant for oversized shapes means you can dodge the hefty price tag if you're on a budget. Look to bridge brands like Rat & Boa, The Frankie Shop, and Reformation, or high street stores like Reiss, Whistles, and Mango for beautiful bridal suits starting from as little as £80.
Keep scrolling to see 18 of our favourite wedding suits for women – and how we'd style them.
