The weekend saw beautiful bride Sara Crampton pioneer a fresh wedding dress trend, but she wasn't the only one schooling us on new dress trends. Carmen Hamilton was in attendance, showing us how to do playful, sexy, and romantic, all at once.
Hamilton nailed her spring wedding guest look, in her ruffled floral Zimmermann dress draped off the shoulders, with a micro purse (our current obsession) and perspex heels to keep all attention on the dress.
So what's the trick to pulling it all off? It’s about subtlety and modesty. Less is always more after all, and it all comes down to a couple of old tricks you already know, but sometimes need to see it in action to be reminded. Show off your shoulders and decolletage, and wear a hot shade of red lipstick. Carmen wears the Pure Colour Love by Estee Lauder, and swears by the shade 'Bar Red' for celebrating a special day.
