WORDS Kirsty Thatcher PUBLISHED Thu, 8 Oct 2026 – 12:15 pm

Believe it or not, spring has well and truly arrived for those on the southern side of the hemisphere. Just when we thought winter would never end, we’re shucking off our scarves and looking forward to baring our shoulders in the thawing sun. Birds are chirping, flowers are blossoming, and with them, Spring wedding season is well under way.

It follows that there’s no time like the present to invest in a spring wedding wardrobe. Whether you’re attending as a guest, or perhaps are part of the bridal party, it’s likely that your calendar is smattered with several spring nuptials in the coming months. Luckily, we no longer need to account for cool weather or dwindling daylight hours when browsing. But there are still plenty of sartorial factors to consider, which s why we’ve curated our very own RUSSH-approved edit of the best guest dresses for a spring wedding.

For our maximalists at heart, there are bold prints from Australian designers SIR and L’IDEE. If you prefer to embrace the rising temperatures more wholeheartedly via artfully-placed cutouts, then Christopher Esber and Courtney Zheng will make the wedding guest dresses for you. And of course, there floral choices galore. With a confection colours of lavenders, lilacs and baby-blues, we know Miranda Priestly’s eyeballs are rattling right to the back of her skull.

Whatever the wedding affair, we’ve got options loaded in our own digitised styling vault. Have a look through the racks for your next ‘I Do’ from the aisle. Happy shopping.
