So you found the perfect wedding gown for your special day, now it’s time to find dresses for the ladies who will be standing by your side – the Bridesmaids!
Depending on how many ladies are in your wedding party, your first thought might be excitement but then you think “How am I going to find one dress that fits each of these ladies skin color’s and matches their personal style preferences?” Worry no more because Aria Bridal has put together a guide of Bridesmaids trends that are sure to satisfy even the choosiest of bridesmaids.
Trend #1: Pastels
Sticking to a color “scheme” instead of just one specific color will give you and your bridesmaids more options for colors that will flatter each of their skin tones. Using a color scheme such as pastels, gives you a whole range of colors to choose from and your ladies will still have a put together look, especially if they all get the same style. Other color schemes include: Metals, Neutrals,
Trend #2: Sequins
Yes, sequins! Sequin dresses are a great way for the ladies to stand out while still letting the bride be the spotlight. Since sequins are striking on their own, stick to simple styles such as long and strapless or a short wrap dress. You can mix colors such as gold, silver, or copper (which keeps the ladies in the metallic family). Or try different styles in the same color to achieve uniquely assembled.
Trend #3: Monochromatic
A monochromatic color scheme lets you the bride get everyone in the same color family while letting them have different shades of the same color to flatter their own skin tone. It may sound scary to have your bridesmaids in different shades of the same color, however this trend is very fashion forward and gives an effortless creative look.
Trend #4: Mix and Match Fabrics
You can use 1 color and mix and match fabrics, patterns, or lengths. Sticking to one color or color scheme and mixing fabrics is a great way to add an eclectic feel without your ladies looking too messy. For example, lace blush color dress would look effortlessly sweet when standing next to a beaded blush color gown.
Trend #5: All White
Yes that’s right, all white as bridesmaids colors. This new trend made us gasp at first, but an all white bridal party makes for a crisp clean look that is perfect for spring and summer and will not take away from the bride. Also try, cream, ivory, beige, or champagne for a fresh, elegant look.
