There's nothing more frustrating than looking in your closet and realising you don't have the perfect dress for a special occasion - even more so when it's for a wedding!

As a guest, it's your job to look the part, but not upstage the bride, of course. That means you need to get a bit more creative with the kind of dress you wear. And if you've got more than one wedding to attend? Well, you can't double up, so a shopping spree is totally justified.

With wedding season in full swing, you’re bound to need a few new dresses to turn heads on your loved one’s special occasion. Whether it’s a fancy cocktail or something rather cruisy by the beach, these retailers are your go-to when shopping for a new dress to wear to the next wedding in your diary.
