Bridesmaid Dresses

You should consider your bridesmaids’ preferences in color, cut and style, as well as their body types, when choosing the style of the bridesmaid dresses. Browse through bridal magazines and websites, you will find a variety of styles. You can combine bridesmaids’ body types when you are shopping for bridesmaid dresses.
Tea-Length
Tea-length dresses are fun and flexible in style. Bridesmaids often like tea-length dresses because showing their beautiful legs and the dresses can be worn again in the future, instead of collecting dust in the closet. Many tea-length dresses are made with chiffon and include decorative embellishments, such as floral details near the waistline or neckline or a ribbon sash.
Separates
Separates let a bridesmaid’s personality shine through. Choose separates if your bridesmaids are of varying sizes. When the top is smoothed over the skirt it hides imperfections in the midsection. We suggests selecting vivid colors, but staying away from patterns, as this will detract from the uniformity of the party. If you don’t want the same color for both the top and the skirt, consider pairing a white bodice top with beading in the skirt color. Separates are available in both tea-length and floor-length gowns, as well as in strapless, halter and spaghetti-strap top options.
A-Line
A-line dresses are flattering and hide imperfections. The classic A-line silhouette works for almost all body types because it skirts the waist gently and then flares back out as the skirt falls. This type of dress also can hide flaws in the midsection and hips. The silhouette can be worked into floor-length gowns, tea-length dresses or separates. Almost every wedding dress designer offers bridesmaid dresses in the A-line silhouette.
