As wedding season moves into fall, Reformation is leaning into richer colors, romantic fabrics and more dramatic silhouettes with its latest occasionwear collection. Designed for cooler-weather celebrations, the lineup spans everything from the Ciera Dress, a deep V-neck lace maxi, to the gold Rune Dress, a square-neck midi finished with subtle metallic fibers.
There are plenty of statement options, too. The chartreuse Sammie pairs silk charmeuse with a strapless fold-over neckline, while the Vivianna combines a high mock neck with an open back and scarf detail. The Aniela goes especially dramatic with silk chiffon, ruching, a drop waist, front slit and coordinating scarf.
Together, the collection offers a moodier take on wedding guest dressing, using texture, jewel-like shades and unexpected detailing to make fall occasionwear feel a little more special.
