Beyond Black: Why Navy is the Undisputed Winter Wedding and Formal Event Colour
When the temperature drops and the calendar flips to the winter months, formal wear often defaults to the classic, dependable black. And while black is timeless, there's another deep, sophisticated hue that truly shines against the backdrop of a winter celebration: Navy Blue.
Often overlooked in favour of its darker counterpart, navy is an incredibly versatile, elegant, and flattering colour that makes it an ideal choice for winter weddings, galas, and any formal event on your cold-weather social calendar.
