BRIDESMAIDS’ DRESSES Making

Always the Bridesmaid

‘ALWAYS THE BRIDESMAID, NEVER THE BRIDE.’ IT’S OFTEN SEEN AS A NEGATIVE, BUT WITH THE LATEST 2020 COLLECTIONS FROM THE TOP BRANDS, IT’S A GREAT TIME TO BE A BEAUTIFUL BRIDESMAID...

Bridesmaid dresses usually feature class, simplicity - so as to not upstage the bride and uniformity. While the former are still true, the latter seems to have been entirely forgotten about, and we love it! Providing bridesmaids with individuality, and giving them a choice in the style or colour of dress they wish to wear, allows them to be more involved in wedding planning and allows them to be much more comfortable on your wedding day.

Right: Multiwrap baby blue dresses by Eliza and Ethan. Below: Jenny Yoo bridesmaid dresses in colours ‘Fig’ and ‘Whipped Apricot.’ We love the variety of styles; it’s become increasingly popular to mix and match bridesmaid dresses. While some brides are opting to keep the colours the same with variations in style, other brides are changing everything about the bridesmaids’ gowns. Of course, uniform bridesmaid dresses are still popular, and it seems that neutral pastel tones are still the favoured theme, but it’s nice to see that this area of weddings is being shaken up. Often, High Street fashion trends are being incorporated into bridesmaid fashion like pleated skirts, shorter dresses and velvet or alternative textures. Multiwrap dresses are still very much in fashion for 2020 too.
