Heading to a wedding this summer? There's a few golden style rules to closely follow if you want to avoid making a fashion faux pas, namely: never white wear, embrace an LBD and ditch the hat
Blue does, however, take poll position as the best colour to wear.
Hats, it seems, have fallen out of favour in recent years, with only 13 per cent of those surveyed saying they would wear one over a fascinator and nearly 29 per cent stating they wouldn’t wear any headwear at all.
To really tick all the right boxes, perhaps unsurprisingly, you should channel the Duchess of Cambridge.
If you want to ace wedding style, take a leaf out of the Duchess of Cambridge's book. Kate, who recently welcomed her first daughter, was named Britain's most stylish wedding guest
Victoria Beckham, pictured at the Royal Wedding in 2011, was voted as the second most stylish wedding guest - and stuck to blue, the colour deemed best to wear for someone's big day
The royal style icon was voted as Britain’s most stylish wedding guest, eclipsing Victoria Beckham in second.
At the other end of the scale, the UK’s biggest wedding fashion faux pas was named as Katie Price’s pink wedding dress, closely followed by Princess Beatrice’s hat at the Royal Wedding.
In a leaf out of the former Kate Middleton’s book, nearly of half of women said they would wear the same dress twice – but only if it was with a different group of friends who hadn’t seen it before.
With the majority of weddings being attended by 26-30 year olds, it’s not surprising that 63 per cent of them wouldn’t spend over £100 on their dress, found research by party and occasionwear website LittleBlackDress.co.uk.
