You’d be hard-pressed to find something more outdated than a wedding guest dress code that insists you shouldn’t wear black. The word “mourning” (that’s where “rules” comes from) comes to mind when you look at Dakota Johnson’s black dress at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding at Madison Square Garden. In fact, Dakota’s black dress is the perfect example of your ideal. should Wear it to your wedding in 2026. Because this is one of the most elegant dress trends of the year and timeless at the same time.
The trend I’m referring to is high neck halter dresses. Johnson’s wedding guest dress appears to feature a long scarf tied at the back of the neck and a high slit, both of which add drama to the translucent dress. For the elegant dress she chose to attend her best friend’s wedding on this very hot day, Johnson opted for a studded Valentino flap shoulder bag and satin stiletto mule sandals with oversized bows. There are no notes.
