Accessories, whether female or male, always enhance a look. Adding more charm to the style adopted, they usually leave the look more personalized, and if the event in question is a link, they can even harmonize with the style of the wedding decoration. For women planning their C-day, every detail of the wedding dress makes a difference: a sash, a lace detail or something more glamorous for the wedding hairdo.

The same way, for men the male wedding fashion has changed a lot, allowing them to be more daringOne of the accessory items that has been used a lot is the suspenders. With their retro atmosphere, they actually make the male outfit more modern, with hispter air.

Short accessory story

The suspenders appeared in England more than two centuries ago, and when they did, they became part of the obligatory costume of the most sophisticated men. They appeared as an alternative to belts, and had the clear function of suspending the pants (hence their name) and not dropping them.

Fashion revisited

They are made of straps (elastic or regular fabric), joined at the back and attached to the pants by buttons or metal clips. The look with suspenders was quite common until the 1960s, being the trademark of many musical groups. Since the 1970’s its use has been falling, but the most current designers have revisited this style and a few seasons ago the accessory became a trend againAs with the classic white wedding shoes, they fell out of use and came back with full force.

Combining with other details

As suspenders can have very different colors and prints, some bride and groom dispense with the use of other details to give them full protagonism, but this is not a rule. Even if you have stronger colors, such as embroidery or navy blue, checkered prints or any other, or colors in pastel shade, you can put more accessories. A recommended idea is to combine the suspenders with butterfly ties which have the same colour palette or complementary colours, and the same goes for shoes, vests, belts and large watches.

The only care is not to exaggerate with the amount of colors used, and so that the suspenders get the space they deserve in the look, the ideal is that they are combined with a white shirt or neutral tone, like gray or light blue.

Harmony with décor

In the same way that the choice of wedding remembrance models should be related to the style of the different wedding invitations selected by the bride and groom, the the couple’s wedding dress should be in line with the whole style of the party. Suspenders are perfect for both more formal, indoor ceremonies and more relaxed, rustic, outdoor wedding decorations full of boho-chic details, for example.

Although brides usually gain more spotlight, preparing a bond is important for both women and men and surely thinking about accessories will make the bride and groom more motivated for C-Day. A well harmonized complement is able to change the whole outfit, and will make the photos even more special. Stepping on the floor to dance the first wedding song in great style, with matching costumes, will be unforgettable for the couple and for those watching them. Look for the suspender that best communicates with the event, and try to harmonize every detail of the pair’s looks. You will be impeccable.
