What To Consider When Choosing The Perfect Wedding Dress Bridesmaid
A bridesmaid is typically a sister or a close friend of the bride
. She has one of the most important roles to play. Before the wedding day, she is planner, co-ordinator, fashion consultant and counsellor. On the wedding day, she attends to all the brides needs and her position puts her in the spotlight as much as the bride. Is it any wonder then that it is almost an unspoken code that the bride always chooses the wedding dress bridesmaid? Which bride would want to risk having a bridesmaid turning up in an outfit which is more attractive, sexier and eye-catching than the bride's?
But does it mean that out of loyalty to the bride, the bridesmaid is doomed to be dressed in something drab? That is really not necessary. With today's wide selection of wedding dress bridesmaid, it is not hard to find something that will complement and not out-shine the bride. After all, a well-chosen outfit will enhance the overall wedding d'cor.
For less formal, cocktail or garden settings, short dresses ending above the knee would be the most suitable and comfortable for the bridesmaid. Ann Taylor bridesmaid collection offers a variety of short empire or natural waist dresses matched with different types of necklines such as V-necks, scoop, strapless and surplice. This is great for bridesmaids who have to follow pre-selected, or rather bride-selected, colour and short dress styles as they can opt for a little differentiation with the various necklines that the collection offers.
For a more elegant setting, check out the Dessy Group bridesmaid collection which offers an upscale and modern selection of bridesmaid dresses. Dessy collection's full-length dresses come in matte, chiffon, silk and organza. The dresses are often accentuated with flower, bow, tie detailing or hand beaded straps for the additional glamorous touch. The dresses can be paired with pump and pearls for the classical look or stilettos to make the bridesmaids look like they are on the runway. Another popular variation this season is the graceful tea-length dress in soft fluid chiffon, georgette, satin and even lace.
Colour is another important consideration as it has to complement the overall wedding theme. The colour of the bridesmaid should never clash with the bride's white wedding gown or any other formal wear she might be wearing on her wedding day. Black is always in style and a popular choice. It's slimming, general favours most complexions and easy to mix and match. For those preferring more colour, the options are endless, ranging from luscious pales to more vibrant hues. Another trend that is gaining in popularity is a 'colour run', which is suitable for spring for summer weddings. This means the bridesmaids wear different colours of the same outfit. Liz Fields bridesmaid dresses are perfect for this. The dresses are available in no less than 10 different colours for each design, ranging from conventional colour such as white, pink, purple, blue and black to the more special colours like moss, tea green, sky, amethyst and coffee.
Traditionally, the bride will arrange for the bridesmaid dressed to be tailor made. Bridesmaids used to have to go for fittings just like the bride which may be time consuming and sometimes stressful with the already long list of tasks to do. However, with the great selection of ready-made dresses nowadays, it is so easy to get a dress off the rack, or rather, off the internet. No more hassle in shop-hopping looking for the perfect fabric, design and tailor. In addition, with images in full colour it is easier to visualise how the bridesmaid dresses will complement the bride's and the overall wedding theme. Get online to choose the perfect wedding wear for that special day and tick off a 'to do' from that long list.
