Such a cruel ritual has stood the test of time but is slowly getting tossed out the emblematic window. Why? It’s because more and more brides are realizing they don’t need to sacrifice a bridesmaid’s happiness for a guest’s undivided attention (unless you’re a bridezilla, of course, then your bridemaids have no hope). If you stop and think about it, your bridal party has helped you plan the stages of your wedding with little or no complaint, so why make them suffer for five hours (or more) in awful oversized shoulder pads and uncomfortable taffeta.
Of course, as a bride, you’re going to worry whether or not your bridesmaid will look better than you in their dress, but don’t. There’s no need - after all, it is your wedding, so your guests will look at you - the bride - no matter what. The key to picking out a complementary, not overshadowing, bridesmaid outfit that will please your bridal party is simple – find a dress that is fashionable and corresponds with the décor of your wedding, and you can do no wrong.
From the causal to the formal, from the festive to the elegant, the list below will give soon-to-be brides an idea of the types of stylish bridesmaid dresses that will delight your entire bridal party – and help you keep your friends after you tie the knot.
Crinkle Chiffon Short Dress with Back Cascade Detail
The sweetly designed Crinkle Chiffon Short Dress with Back Cascade Detail combines keen elegance with unbridled tranquility. Perfect for weddings with whimsical décor, this knee-length A-line garment features gentle layers of criss-crossed ruched (tight decorative gathers that create pleats) fabric that is placed flawlessly on the empire bodice, with slight pleats flowing downward into the skirt from the bodice. For an extra beautiful detail, the back of the dress features a charmeuse (lightweight shimmery sating with a soft, contouring drape) and crinkle chiffon (lightweight and fluid gently-textured sheer fabric) ruffle that delicately cascades down the length of the dress. Made of 100 percent polyester, full lined with a back zip.
Long Chiffon Dress with Removable Flower Detail
If your wedding is outdoors in the spring – whether on the beach or at the piers – the Long Chiffon Dress with Removable Flower Detail is one flowing number that will fit right in. Crafted with imported polyester, this fully-lined floor-length strapless dress is made of flowing chiffon (sheer draping fabric) and features a ruched sweetheart neckline. The large, removable flower detail, shaped like a full-bloom rose, gives this garment a cool, island flair. But what’s best about this dress is its flattering form – the loose, empire-like silhouette will fit all body types.
Short Chiffon Dress with Round Neck and Removable Bow
Made of loose chiffon, the delightful Short Chiffon Dress with Round Neck and Removable Bow has a natural waist that is accented by a slightly scrunched charmeuse band, and features a round Grecian-inspired neckline with removable fabric bow (the bow can be tied at either side of the neckline). Dramatic pleats gather at the center of the neckline and flow into the bust, adding flair to this refined A-line dress. Overall, the classic look of this knee-length garb makes this piece the type of dress that easily transitions from wedding ceremony to late-night reception.
Strapless Tulle Dress with Caviar Beading
Sophisticated and glamorous, the Strapless Tulle Dress with Caviar Beading is one dress any bridesmaid would die for. With its formal cocktail party-inspired look, this chic knee-length A-line number has a strapless empire bodice that is accented with ruching at the waist, and features exquisitely designed caviar beadwork along the bust and hem that mimics Victorian-style flourishes (the beading pattern is placed on sheer tulle, which flows loosely over, and is a couple of inches longer than, the polyester lining). This elegant dress complements any upscale black and white swatched wedding.
Short Sleeveless Crinkle Chiffon Bubble Hem Dress
The festive and vibrant Short Sleeveless Crinkle Chiffon Bubble Hem Dress is an ultra-modern garment that features a jubilant abstract leaf and flower–inspired green, black, red, pink, yellow, purple and orange pattern, printed on crinkle chiffon fabric. Taking on a slight A-line shape with a waistline, this bubble dress also features a round neckline that pleats at the center and flows into the bust. With its playful bubble hem that lays mid-thigh, this bridesmaid’s dress is a comfortable and exciting wear that fits in with any jovial and colorful wedding set in the city.
Unless you want your bridesmaid to end up with a closet identical to Katherine Heigl’s in “27 Dresses,” pick out a bridesmaid dress that’s both fashionable and pleasing (but, of course, doesn’t outshine you).
