Our tip: Don’t feel tied down to a traditional style. You can stand out from the crowd by hiring a modern suit in an unusual style or colour. We love their blue mohair suit which looks fresh and modern and will set you apart from your schoolmates.
Finding the perfect dress
Chances are that if you are heading to a formal soon you already have you dress picked out. Whether you are buying something stylish and beautiful or having something specially made make sure that you get the right accessories to go along with it. Pick up a beautiful clutch bag and a pair of stunning high heels. If you are wearing new shoes make sure that you have worn them around your house for a few evenings before you wedding to get them broken in and avoid any blisters or sore feet.
