For A Classic Look – Outfit Idea Number 1

For a communion outfit that is both simple and elegant, look no further than a classic white dress. Whether you opt for a flowing maxi dress or a more structured shift dress, a white dress will always look chic. We recommend Karen Millen Soft Tailored Short Waterfall Mini Dress €245.00 which features a relaxed fit.

To add a touch of personalisation to your outfit, consider accessorising with a statement ring or vintage brooch.

Ottoman Hands Marina Heart Stacking Ring €35.00 helps bring a cute feel to your outfit. Pair this with these Goddess Demeter Coin Drop Earrings €65.00 to complete your accessories.

For shoes, choose a pair of nude heels to keep the outfit classic and understated. LODI Rachel Nude Court Shoes €139.00 would be a great pairing for this. 

For A Modern Look - Outfit Idea Number 2 

For a more modern take on the communion outfit, consider a jumpsuit with heels and understated jewellery.

 
Try Silkfred’s Animal Print Frill Front Jumpsuit €48.00 which features sleeveless, wide leg design and waist tie for a gorgeous combination of feminine boldness.

For heels, pair it with LODI Hatin Nude Sandals €195.00.

Then finish your outfit with an assortment of jewellery from Ottoman Hands. We recommend the Hand-Hammered Small Chain Drop Earrings
