Bridesmaid glamour is guaranteed with these lovely gown choices, offering the perfect way for your crew to shine on the day
Bridesmaid style is moving on, with a distinct shift towards sleeker and more understated styles with contemporary cut. This is good news for brides and their crew, helping to avoid the potential arguments that can break out when a style doesn’t flatter or fit one of your bridesmaids. The other good news is the extended colour choice – traditional ‘feminine’ pinks and blushes are being diluted with a whole host of other options, from rich reds and blues to on-trend greens. And if you are considering a monochrome bridal look, ivories and creams are also firmly in the mix. Here are eight bridesmaid gowns to try.
1. Pronovias – Sea shades
We’re huge fans of the Pronovias Fiesta collection for offering a wide choice of colours and styles to flatter bridesmaids (and it also offers a full range of sizes). The Jaira gown is a lovely choice for a destination wedding. In a two-tone marine green, it has a halter neck and floaty flared skirt. pronovias.com
2. Maids to Measure – Red glamour
In a gorgeous (and on trend) burgundy red chiffon, the Holly gown from Maids to Measure features a high neckline, short sleeves and softly tailored bodice. A sophisticated choice, it is also available in soft forest green. maidstomeasure.com
3. Kelsey Rose – Soft drape
This classic bridesmaid gown by Kelsey Rose is in a soft peony shade and features bootlace straps, a draped bodice and front split. Other designs are available in the same colourway. kelseyrose.co.uk
4. Katya Katya – Grey haze
Katya Katya London’s Leia ensemble consists of a slip dress with a soft grey tulle wraparound overlayer. It’s part of a versatile bridesmaid collection with lots of colour combinations. katyakatya.co.uk
5. Onlyway – Wrap up
The New Wrap Collection by Onlyway is a one-size-fits-all design in soft jersey, featuring five different designs to flatter your crew. There are different sleeve and neckline options so this is a great mix-and-match choice. only-way.uk
6. Little Mistress – Sweet pleat
The Little Mistress party gown collection includes smart choices for bridesmaids, including this on-trend high-necked gown with soft pleated skirt, eyelash-panel lace bodice and lace sleeves. little-mistress.com
7. Motee Maids – Ivory bright
Monochrome bridal parties are something of a trend and we think this Motee Maids’ Emma gown in ivory is perfect choice for elegant attendants. It features all-over beading and with a touch of Deco styling in the cut. moteemaids.co.uk
8. TH&TH – Something blue
The soft navy Cecilia crepe floorlength gown by TH&TH features its signature low V back. We love the flattering ruffled sleeves and sweeping train. The gown is also available in burgundy. thandth.com
