Modest little black dresses have higher necklines and longer sleeves (3/4 or full length) and are looser

To the Liberty Inaugural Ball that evening, the 43-year-old wore a strapless, black and white Givenchy dress emblazoned with black floral detailing across the bodice and skirt

The Dress: Look for a heavily sequined mini dress, preferably in silver, gold, or bright red

We can already picture it: you dancing under twinkle lights outside your wedding venue, this black and white gown glimmering in the moonlight

If the wedding is outdoors, go for breezier silhouettes, shorter hemlines or garden-inspired prints

And, if you dont want to put too much effort into your look, a ball cap and sunnies are your best friend
