Self-Portrait
Self-Portrait is the label behind some of the most-worn guest and party dresses in Britain: lace, sequins and satin, cut to flatter and priced well below most designer eveningwear. These are the Self-Portrait dresses our editors rate right now, with prices checked daily.

Why Self-Portrait dresses sell out
The guipure lace dress is what made the label a cult name, and it is still the heart of every collection. Around it sit sequinned mesh midis for evening, embroidered satin for daytime weddings, and corded lace with crystal detailing for the moments around a wedding: rehearsal dinners, receptions and parties.
How to choose
For a day wedding, choose lace or satin in a soft colour at midi length. For evening, sequinned mesh does the work, so keep shoes and jewellery simple. Self-Portrait dresses are fitted through the bodice, so check the retailer's size guide before you buy. See our wedding guest edits in The Journal.
