Wedding Occasionwear – Matching Dress & Frock Coat

For daytime elegance wear the dress and coat with an upturned brimmed hat, high heels and dainty clutch. For nighttime glamour swap the coat for an evening shawl, replace the hat with a feather fascinator and slip into some soft satin pumps ready to dance the night away.
