A deep wine dress is a safe and elegant choice for a wedding guest. It's festive, it isn't white, and it suits day or evening.
The Azazie Atelier dresses below come in a Wine color; choose Wine on the product page. We show the price and buyer rating listed when we checked. For Amazon picks, use the button to see current prices and reviews.

We started from Azazie's bridesmaid and Atelier ranges and from Amazon's women's dress best-seller lists, then kept dresses offered in a maroon-family color (maroon, burgundy, wine) with clear details on fabric, fit and sizes. We didn't try these dresses on. Descriptions come from each product page and from independent articles or forums where we found them.
Prices and ratings are shown only where the retailer publishes them on its own product page (Azazie), with the date we checked. Prices change, so confirm before you buy. Amazon doesn't allow its prices or star ratings to be shown outside its own tools, so for Amazon dresses we link you there to see them.
Photos are licensed Pexels style photos that show the color and mood, not the exact dress. Always check the retailer's size chart and return policy before an event.
