CAN YOU WEAR A LONG DRESS TO HOMECOMING?

Homecoming is approaching and it’s time to find your perfect homecoming dress. Lots of girls come to us to find their dream outfit, but they also come with many questions:

❓ Why are homecoming dresses short⁉️❓ Do homecoming dresses have to be short⁉️❓ Do you wear long or short dresses to homecoming⁉️❓ Are floor-length maxi dresses appropriate for homecoming⁉️

All the questions! But don’t worry, we have all the answers!

 

☄️ Can You Wear Long Dresses to Homecoming? Yes, You Can! 💥

We’ll get straight to it: yes, you can wear a long dress to homecoming if you’d like! Your homecoming dress should be a true reflection of your style and what you feel comfortable in.

Typically, girls will wear short homecoming dresses. The reason is that short cocktail dresses are less formal—and usually the homecoming dress code is semi-formal. However, your homecoming event may be more formal. Or, you may just want to wear a long dress to a semi-formal event—that’s totally okay too!

Today, we’re showing you five long homecoming dresses that give you the length you’re looking for without being super formal. However, if you’d like to see formal long homecoming dresses, head to our full catalog.

 

1. Sienna satin A-line dress

After asking us, “Can I wear a long dress to homecoming,” the follow-up question is usually: what silhouette should I choose?

Choosing the right silhouette for your body type is really important—especially when you wear long dresses. Because there’s more fabric, it’s important to find a silhouette that’ll flatter your figure.

When in doubt, we recommend trying on A-line homecoming dresses. This silhouette looks great on everyone. It’ll cinch your waist and flare out at the hips, keeping the gaze focused on your hourglass shape.

A slit in the skirt will show off a bit of leg and elongate the body—perfect for our shorter girlies!

When it comes to colors, some ladies gravitate towards warm tones, like sienna orange. If you’ve got a summer tan you want to show off, this color will definitely make your skin glow.

2. Fuschia satin mermaid dress

Anyone else looking to have their Barbie moment? This fuschia pink mermaid gown is the homecoming dress you need. Not only is this color super on trend, but it’s also very fun and casual—perfect for semi-formal dress codes.

Mermaid silhouettes are a bit tighter than A-line silhouettes. They hug your hips and flare out below your knees. However, you can find mermaid dresses that are a bit looser, like this one. The satin fabric gives you room to work the dance floor. And let’s be real, we know that’s going to be a big part of your evening!

If you’re looking to really accentuate your curves, look for ruching at the waist. This will draw attention to your hourglass shape. Uh, yes, please!

3. Royal blue glitter crepe mermaid dress

When it comes to semi-formal long homecoming dresses, it’s all in the details.

This royal blue mermaid dress may seem simple at first, but if you take a closer look, you’ll see that it takes your homecoming look to the next level.

First, the color: royal blue is bold and bright. If you want to stand out, choose a vibrant shade of your preferred color.

Second, look at that gorgeous glitter crepe fabric. You can still incorporate sparkle into your homecoming outfit without head-to-toe sequins and beads (Though we encourage you to rock those embellishments if that’s what your heart desires!).

The feather detailing on the shoulder is the cherry on top. Feathers are very trendy right now—and that nod to fashion will surely win you a few nods from the style gurus in the room.

4. Mauve metallic lamé A-line dress

For those who are on the fence and wondering “Do you wear short or long dresses to homecoming,” this dress gives you both!

Underneath the slit in the skirt is a shorter layer, creating a high-low effect. You can show a bit of leg without feeling too exposed (Plus, it allows you to show off that killer pair of heels we know you bought for the occasion!).

When it comes to “classic homecoming shades,” mauve is very popular. Like warm colors, pastel colors will bring out your summer tan—and who doesn’t want that? If you’re nodding “yes please!” then we have even more good news. The shimmering metallic lamé fabric will make your skin glow even more.

To complete this radiant homecoming look, dust your shoulders, collarbone, and cheekbones with some highlighter. You won’t regret it.

5. Neon green two-piece A-line dress

Can you wear a long dress to homecoming that’s two pieces? Absolutely! In fact, two-piece homecoming dresses are a great option if you want length but also don’t want to look too dressed up.

Chiffon is one of our favorite fabrics for homecoming dresses. It’s light and airy—and if it’s still warm in September, it allows you to wear a long dress without feeling too hot.

Floral designs and fun, bright colors like neon green will also help create a playful look. If you’re a gal who wants a whimsical and effortless vibe, this long homecoming dress may be the perfect pick!

WHAT TO WEAR TO HOMECOMING: FIVE DRESSES TO STUN EVERYONE

When September approaches it’s time to prepare for homecoming! Your biggest task? Finding your homecoming dress, of course!

What is a homecoming dress or hoco dress? Most homecoming events expect a semi-formal dress code. So you could wear a short cocktail dress, long gown, or two-piece ensemble (as long as it’s not ripped jeans and a tee).Commonly, girls will wear a short cocktail dress—and they’ll reserve long formal gowns for prom. Today, we’re going to show you the most popular styles at our boutique. But with so many to choose from, we encourage you to also take a peek at our full homecoming dress selection!

👗 What to Wear to Homecoming: GLS Bestsellers 💕

What kind of dress do you wear to homecoming? At the end of the day, you should wear what you feel most confident in! But if you need a place to start, here are five of our most popular styles for hoco dresses. In any of these dresses, you’re bound to turn heads!

1. Red babydoll dress with butterfly applique

If you’re wondering what to wear to homecoming, your first order of business is finding the right silhouette.

Good news: you don’t have to look much further. Babydoll dresses are the go-to for many ladies because they flatter all body types. Like the A-line silhouette, it cinches and flares out at the waist, accentuating your hourglass shape.

Short dresses are more casual which is why they’re popular for homecoming. However, if you’re looking to zhuzh up your outfit, look for a mesh skirt with some volume. This fabric will definitely create a more dramatic effect.

Embellishments and color choice can also make your hoco look stand out. A vibrant red homecoming dress, of course, will catch eyes. Embellishments (like sequins) and embroidery (like applique) are also great ways to dial up your outfit. Don’t you just love the butterfly applique here?!

2. Navy and gold sweetheart babydoll dress

Looking for a homecoming dress with a little bit of bling? You’re not alone!

Homecoming is a time to wear something special. Gold or silver accents are just the thing for an event like this. A dark backdrop, like navy or black, will balance out the metallic details beautifully. Choose a dress with some subtle glitter on the skirt and you’ll totally shimmer under the lights.

We also love the romantic feel of the bodice. The corset back is not only super trendy, but will also cinch your waist and show off your curves. And then the off-the-shoulder sleeves paired with a sweetheart neckline—how dreamy!

We recommend skipping any necklaces and sweeping your hair back to show off your shoulders and collarbone for this outfit. So, so chic.

3. Gold embellished babydoll dress

Wondering what to wear to homecoming that’ll really make a statement? Loved the dress above but wished there was more gold? (We’ve been there, we get it.) Then this gold hoco dress has your name on it.

Dripping in head-to-toe gold embellishments, this homecoming dress is a bestseller for a reason. Sequins, glitter, embroidery, applique—it has it all. If you look closely, you’ll see butterflies delicately woven into the designs.

While it’s certainly flashy, it’s also functional. The sleeves will keep you feeling secure so you can dance the evening away.

Some ladies say this hoco dress gives modern-day Belle from Beauty and the Beast. We totally agree. The sweetheart neckline, corset back, gold color—yes it’s checking off all the boxes! Go on, have your princess moment.

4. Lilac babydoll dress with floral applique

If you love pastel colors, this hoco dress is a fan favorite!

Lilac is on trend right now and it’s not going anywhere. It looks great on all skin tones and will enhance your summer glow.

For the self-proclaimed girly-girls, you’ll love the floral applique details. The sweetheart neckline and off-the-shoulder sleeves also work to celebrate your feminine energy.

As you can tell, corset bodices are everywhere right now. And this dress takes it up a notch with a sheer mesh corset bodice. But the pastel color and floral embroidery balance it out, making it hoco-friendly. (We love it when we can have the best of both worlds!)

In a short babydoll dress, your shoes will be on full display! We recommend white, silver, or nude heels or sandals to complete this look.

The head-to-toe sequins will definitely create a showstopping look—you won’t be blending in wearing this! If you want to dial it up more, this dress is also offered in fuschia (Barbie moment!). But if you want to keep the color more neutral, go for the baby blue or blush option.

Wondering what to wear to a rehearsal dinner as a bridesmaid? If the dress code is simply “dress to impress,” then this red gown is a perfect choice. There’s no better color to celebrate love!

When it comes to silhouettes, we love to recommend A-line. It accentuates the smallest part of your body—your waist—and falls gracefully along your hips. It’s flattering on all body types.

Satin is smooth and luxurious, which is fitting for a celebratory evening like a wedding rehearsal dinner. But it’s also soft and smooth against the skin. You’ll look like a million bucks without any discomfort. The sheer side panels add a touch of allure without compromising on elegance. Yes, you can have your cake and eat it too!

If you’re a gal who loves her jewelry, then look for a bridesmaid rehearsal dinner dress with a plunging V-neckline. It’ll create the perfect canvas for your favorite necklace.

2. Black glitter mermaid dress

Looking for a bridesmaid rehearsal dinner dress that fits a black-tie dress code? No need to overthink it! This black mermaid dress checks off all the boxes.

Its glitter fabric, intricate embroidery, and sparkling embellishments are the epitome of bridal party glamor. Everyone will know that you’re the bride’s VIP guest.

The off-the-shoulder neckline and mermaid silhouette call attention to your womanly figure and assets. The sheer slit adds a hit of drama, allowing you to make a grand entrance alongside your girls.

This bridesmaid rehearsal dinner dress is totally giving old Hollywood. Complete the look by styling your hair in loose, side-swept curls.

3. Emerald satin mermaid dress

This emerald bridesmaid rehearsal dinner dress is another stunning option for formal, fancy venues.

Satin is a popular choice for wedding events because it elevates any look instantly. We love pairing satin with gemstone colors, like emerald green. So luxe! Amethyst purple, sapphire blue, and ruby red (as you saw above) are other gemstone shades we love to recommend for bridesmaid rehearsal dinner dresses.

If you’re someone who doesn’t want a ton of bling, look for a gown with bead embellishments. They add dimension to a dress without being attention-grabbing. Plus, there are other ways to dial up the heat, like a slit in the skirt or a sweetheart neckline!

4. Yellow jersey mermaid dress

Is the rehearsal dinner in the spring or summer? Is it being held outside or in a garden? If yes, then embrace bright or pastel colors, like this sunshine yellow, for your bridesmaid rehearsal dinner dress.

As a bridesmaid, you don’t want to underdress. It’s your best friend’s wedding after all. Long dresses are usually worn to signify important occasions, like a rehearsal dinner. But if you’re headed to a garden or seaside event, there are ways to create a more casual look.

A summery color like yellow—and an unfussy fabric like jersey—will give you the balance you’re looking for. Playful touches, like this lace-up back, are another great option. When it comes to your hair and makeup, go natural. Loose curls and minimalist makeup are all you need.

5. Navy lace babydoll dress

If the dress code is summer cocktail attire, then short dresses are also welcome. But what to wear to this rehearsal dinner as a bridesmaid?

Here’s one of our favorite short bridesmaid rehearsal dinner dresses. While the length makes this dress more casual, it still creates an elegant, celebratory look. It’s also ultra flattering. Like A-line dresses, babydoll dresses accentuate the smallest part of your waist.

Lace is also a fabric that elevates any dress instantly. It creates a romantic vibe—which is fitting for an evening celebrating love, isn’t it? If you’re sentimental like we are, then go for a sweetheart neckline, too!

If you choose a strapless stunner like this one, we recommend keeping your collarbone bare. It creates a bold statement. Then, rock a pair of dainty earrings. For footwear, we recommend heels—or wedges if you’ll be walking on grass. You’ll have legs for days!

As your friendly neighborhood fashionista, we see a lot of dresses. These four hold a special place in our hearts. They’re all perfect rehearsal dinner attire for the mother of the bride. Found one you like? Take a look at our styling tips to ace your look!

1. Emerald satin A-line dress

Looking for a mother of the bride rehearsal dinner dress that screams elegance? This dress has your name on it.

A-line dresses look amazing on every body type, so we always recommend them. They cinch your waist and flare out at the hips, giving you a gorgeous hourglass shape—not to mention, total comfort. What’s not to like about that?! To further highlight your trim waist, look for dresses with built-in belts or waist straps.

Gem colors are very popular for rehearsal dinner dresses for mothers of the bride. They’re vibrant, flattering, and luxurious. We love pairing these colors with smooth, shiny fabrics like satin. It’ll make your look extra glam.

If the rehearsal dinner is outdoors or in an air-conditioned room, long sleeves are a great way to keep warm without having to wear a shawl or jacket. It’s practical—but also keeps your outfit tres chic.

💞 Styling tip: Accentuate this glowing look by adding some bronzer to the cheekbones and chest.

2. Blue satin mermaid dress

If you want a dress that highlights your figure, this mother of the bride rehearsal dinner dress is just the thing.

Mermaid silhouettes are our go-to for ladies who love form-fitting gowns that show off their assets. (If you got it, flaunt it!) Mermaid dresses hug your waist and hips, and then flare out at the knees—like a mermaid’s tail. If you want a bit more room in your skirt, look for a dress that has a slit.

Blue is having a major moment this season—from light shades to deep, dark hues. Royal blue looks great with satin and other shinier fabrics. It will make your outfit really pop!

Weddings are all about celebrating romance. Rehearsal dinners are no exception, so we like to suggest romantic details like off-the-shoulder sleeves. These will stay put with the added spaghetti straps.

💞 Styling tip: Glam it up with your accessories! Silver pairs beautifully with royal blue. Pull back the front pieces of your hair to show off your favorite earrings.

3. Navy sequin and velvet mermaid dress

If you often gravitate toward dark colors, then you’ll love this navy dress. Navy is a favorite among mothers of the bride. It’s a flattering color that looks great on all skin tones.

While navy is a subtle color, you can dial up your mother of the bride rehearsal dinner dress in other ways—through your fabric choice, embellishments, and your accessories.

This dress is a great example. As you can see, you can have it all. Sequins, velvet, feathers, you name it! The sequins and velvet create a one-of-a-kind texture and the feathers are used to highlight the asymmetrical neckline and slit in the skirt.

💞 Styling tip: We love asymmetrical necklines! Show it off by styling your hair in curls and sweeping it to one side.

4. Mauve embellished A-line dress

Mauve is a staple in rehearsal dinner attire for mothers of the bride. Why? It’s soft, feminine, and romantic—a triple threat for any wedding event look.

If your daughter’s rehearsal dinner is in the summer or spring, light pink shades are great choices. They’ll bring out your summer tan and give you that glow you’re looking for.

As we shared, A-line dresses naturally create an hourglass shape. To accentuate this silhouette, deep-V necklines will draw the gaze in and toward the waist. Adding details to your shoulders, like puff sleeves or even feathers, will also create the illusion of a smaller waistline.

Hoping to incorporate some sparkle into your outfit? Say no more. This dress has shimmering glitter and sequin designs from head to toe.

💞 Styling tip: When it comes to makeup, keep the palette pink! A rosy blush and strawberry lip are all you need to complete this delicate look.

WHAT TO WEAR TO A REHEARSAL DINNER: A STYLE GUIDE FOR GUESTS

Wondering what to wear to a rehearsal dinner as a guest? Look no further. Our style experts are here to rescue your outfit dilemma so shopping becomes a smooth, easy, and fun process!

First things first: what’s the dress code for rehearsal dinners? Usually, the couple will let you know if it’s casual, or if you should dress in cocktail or formal attire. Typically it’s the latter. A wedding is an important event, after all!

Here, we’re showing you our favorite gowns for dressier rehearsal dinners. They’re not too formal, but will definitely ensure you shine while celebrating the soon-to-be newlyweds.

If you’ve scored an invite to a rehearsal dinner, you’re a very important person. The pressure is on to dress to the nines! Don’t worry, we got you. Here are our top rehearsal dinner outfits for guests.

1. Black embellished mermaid dress

If you’re ever stumped on what to wear to a wedding rehearsal dinner, a sleek black dress is always a good idea.

Mermaid silhouettes are an easy way to elevate any black gown. They hug your curves in all the right places. If comfort is important to you, choose a fabric with a bit of stretch, like rome jersey. This material also drapes beautifully. It’s totally a win-win.

It’s not every day that we can wear a dress with some dazzling embellishments. Rehearsal dinners, however, can be one of those days! If you want to stand out, rock gold or silver embellishments. (A dark background will make them pop.) Or, if you want just a hint of glam, look out for a dress that has black sequins or beads.

2. Navy beaded mermaid dress

When asked what to wear to a rehearsal dinner, we also recommend jewel-tone dresses. They’re luxurious, flattering, and offer tons of options.

Jewel tones are colors like sapphire blue, emerald green, and ruby red. These dark, rich hues pair well with any fabric. So if you want something stretchy and comfy, go for rome jersey. If you want your dress to pop, choose shimmery sequins or shiny satin.

Wedding events, like rehearsal dinners, are the perfect time to rock feminine, romantic details. Sweetheart necklines are one of our favorites. They literally mimic the shape of a heart—how cute is that?!

3. Mauve sequin mermaid dress

What do you wear to a rehearsal dinner that’s held outdoors or in the colder months? A long-sleeve dress like this one! Yes, you can look like a Hollywood vixen even when the temperature drops.

How? As we said before, mermaid silhouettes are a great way to dial up any dress. Some mermaid-style dresses will loosely hug your curves, giving you that hourglass shape without feeling too tight. (This style is giving Greek goddess vibes, don’t you think?) Pro tip: to further accentuate your waist, look for dresses with gathered waistlines.

Mauve is a very popular color for weddings events. It’s romantic, feminine, and looks great on all skin tones. Want to glam up your rehearsal dinner outfit? Try on a dress with head-to-toe sequins! The couple will love that you’re celebrating their wedding events to the fullest.

4. Sienna satin A-line dress

Let’s say your wedding rehearsal dinner is in summer or fall. Take advantage of your summer tan and rock warm tones, like sienna.

To accentuate your glow even more, try on a satin dress—seriously! Its shiny appearance will highlight the natural dewiness of your skin. Then add some bronzer and highlighter. Voila! Your complexion will look absolutely gorgeous.

If mermaid dresses aren’t your thing, we recommend A-line dresses. They flatter any body type and are oh-so comfortable. They cinch the smallest part of your waistline and fall loosely along your hips and legs. Yes, you get the best of both worlds!

5. Fuchsia asymmetrical short dress

If the dress code for your rehearsal dinner is explicitly cocktail attire, you can totally wear short or mid-length dresses. There’s no need for ball gowns, but some sparkle is definitely welcome. You’re celebrating a special wedding, after all.

This short dress strikes the right balance between playful and glamorous. Fuchsia is bright, bold, and very on trend. Sequins, feathers, and an asymmetrical neckline with one long sleeve create a unique outfit that’s appropriate for dinner—but will seamlessly transition you to a night on the town.

If that’s the plan, complete this showstopping look with a bright lip or eyeshadow.

WHAT TO WEAR TO A SUMMER WEDDING: 5 COOL STYLES TO COPY

Summer weddings are popular among couples because the weather is dependably lovely. But sometimes it can get really warm! And the last thing you want is to get all dressed up and then wind up dripping in sweat. Not a good look.

As a guest, it’s normal to wonder what to wear to a summer wedding. Let’s tackle that question together. We’re here to show you styles, fabrics, and cuts that’ll help you look ah-mazing while keeping you cool!

🤍 What to Wear to a Summer Wedding: Stay Cool in These 5 Dresses 💐

We often get asked what to wear to a summer outdoor wedding or what color to wear to a summer wedding. We’re covering all these questions below as we walk you through our fav summer wedding guest dresses.

1. Chiffon A-line dress with floral applique

If you’re researching what to wear to a summer outdoor wedding, it’s best to start with A-line dresses made of airy fabrics, like chiffon. A flowy silhouette and light material are key for beating the summer heat—especially if the ceremony is outdoors, during the daytime. Bonus points: this style of dress will also keep you cool and comfortable when you rip up the dance floor!

This particular A-line chiffon dress is adorned with 3D floral appliqué and embroidery on the bodice, adding a touch of whimsical elegance that’s perfect for a garden wedding.

We’re also often asked what color to wear to a summer wedding. You can’t go wrong with pink—a color associated with love and romance. What shade? That’s up to you! Choose the one that best complements your skin tone.

2. Satin A-line dress with slit

Satin is another fabric we recommend when asked what to wear to a summer wedding. It’s incredibly popular right now—and we’re not surprised. It’s a summer-friendly fabric that’ll keep you cool, while also making you look incredibly chic.

Satin isn’t an everyday fabric. This smooth, shiny material is often reserved for fancier occasions, right? We love that it also takes any color to the next level. Rich, warm hues, like sienna, are great options for a dress like this. Pro tip: these colors will also make your complexion look sunkissed.

In warm weather, we typically avoid sleeves. You can totally avoid them for your wedding guest look too! Delicate spaghetti straps are a great choice if you want to feel secure, while rocking minimal fabric on your arms.

If the venue doesn’t offer air conditioning, we recommend an A-line skirt with a slit in the skirt. You’ll thank us for the extra room around your legs and hips!

3. Satin mermaid dress with open V-back

Now, not all summer weddings are smoking hot. What to wear to a summer wedding that’s expected to be cooler? Or is partially indoors with air conditioning?

If you loved the dress above, here’s another similar number—but it has a mermaid silhouette. This form-fitting style hugs all your curves and shows off your hourglass shape. Va-va-voom!

Don’t worry, there are still elements that keep this look breathable, like the dress’ cut-away sleeves, open-V back, and slit in the skirt. These details are also super sexy, and who doesn’t want to feel like a total bombshell?

Like sienna, yellow is a popular shade for summer wedding attire. It’ll make your summer tan absolutely glow.

4. Short chiffon A-line dress

What to wear to a summer wedding? We didn’t forget about the short dresses, don’t you worry. These are especially great for summer outdoor weddings or those that indicated cocktail attire.

Short A-line and babydoll dresses are our go-to for comfy yet flirty and fun looks. They cinch your waist and flare at the hips, creating a flattering look on any figure. A light fabric, like chiffon, is perfect for this style of dress. The skirt can have a few layers and you won’t even feel it.

Blush is another shade of pink that’s popular for summer outdoor weddings. It’s feminine and romantic, which is ideal for a day celebrating love. As you probably know, light colors also absorb less heat. (Practical and cute? Yes, please.)

If you’re looking for extra sparkle without rocking a heavy dress, look for a jewel-embellished waistline. This won’t add too much weight, but it’ll accentuate your small waist. Style smarter, not harder!

5. Strapless chiffon babydoll dress

This look is another favorite of ours for those asking what to wear to a summer outdoor wedding. Dark teal and other shades of green will accent a lush garden or beachside wedding beautifully.

Again, loose silhouettes and airy fabrics are staples for summer wedding guest attire. If you want to capitalize on the strapless trend, this sweethearted strapless bodice is to die for. It’s romantic and chic all at once. The ruching makes it ultra-flattering—drawing the eyes toward the smallest part of your waist.

Against a dark fabric, jewels and other embellishments will stand out. A bedazzled waistline will complete this effortlessly glam look. Shine bright under the evening lights!
