In the last post I shared with a few wedding guest dress options most of those were more on the casual side. Today I have a few formal options, with some being floor-length and petite-friendly. That’s hard to find! All of the dresses in this post are from Karen Millen and there are several more petite-friendly options on their site that may be perfect for your upcoming occasion.

Petite-Friendly Wedding Guest Dresses
My Sizing: I’m 4’10” and my bust, waist, and hip measurements are 32″, 24″ and 36″. My typical inseam is 24-25″. The clothes shown are unaltered and show how they fit me right from the store. I list my sizing beside each item to help you compare when shopping online.
Floor Length Wedding Guest Dress
This floral floor-length dress is just all-around beautiful. It is fully lined with a pleated overlay. The back is fully open, which is a beautiful detail, but means you’ll need an adhesive bra or petals. In terms of sizing, this dress is overall true to size but is a little snug on me through the waist. The waistband doesn’t have any stretch, so you may want to size up if you prefer a more comfortable fit. The length shown is unhemmed and I’m wearing a 3.5″ heel with it. It just grazes the ground on me, so if you’re my exact height you may wish to hem it, but I think it works without alterations as well.

Black Strapless Wedding Guest Dress
I sized up in this dress to Petite 2 thinking it would fit closer, but I should have chosen my true size instead (Petite 0). This dress is thick with stretch. It has nice details like a grip strip at the top of the dress and boning through the torso to give it structure. The dress is fully lined as well. Unhemmed this dress comes to my ankles.

Casual Wedding Guest Dress
In you’re heading to a beach wedding, this dress may be just what you’re looking for. It’s lightweight and unlined. It is true to size overall but is a little large on me through the chest. The straps are not adjustable. This is a great dress for getting a lot of wear out of as you can wear it casually as well.
