Early fall weddings tend to mean a mix of indoor and outdoor gatherings, with tablescapes and florals set in earthy hues and romantic lighting.

Dressing for a late summer wedding is no different: Retailers like Abercrombie, Anthropologie, Reformation and beyond have begun to drop wedding guest dresses in colors like olive green, chocolate brown, burgundy and purple. Drop-waist silhouettes, tiered layers, lace, fringe, velvets and jacquards, among some of the latest trends in fashion, are also prevalent, with brands like Anthropologie and ASOS offering options you can re-wear for more than one occasion and more than one season.

With these things in mind, we're shopping for the best early fall wedding guest dresses you can style this season, from cocktail dresses to formal options, black-tie gowns and more. We're considering various prints, colors and fabrics so you can dress for the occasion while factoring in high-temperature weather.

While you shop, keep in mind other occasions where you can re-wear these dresses: bridal showers, formal dinner parties or destination vacations. There are also some picks, like a Reformation silk halter maxi dress, that come in various colors perfect for any bridesmaid commitments.
