Bridesmaids outshining the bride 2

I spoke lately about the bridesmaids and bridemaids dresses. I recently saw a multiway dress in The Gloss magazine 03/06/10. Gorgeous dress and about 15 different ways to style the top of the dress-great way to get the different looks for the girls. One down fall-it cost £399. Now don’t despair-it is only a matter of time before a company copies this and some bridesmaids manufacturers do this-but the high street will be on top of this in no time-so keep your eyes peeled-if you find any let me know!

Try to keep your bridesmaids dresses different to your own-a close copy in a different colour neutralises your distinct look-for example-if you ahve a one shoulder dress-give the girls different strap variations not a matching one shoulder-, also if there is a flower or detailing on your dress in a particular spot-don’t match this-again it makes your dress and style less special.

We recently advised a bride to mix the stlyes for her different shaped bridesmaids in chiffon dresses-drapy, comfortable and fabulous. Each dress has a slight embellishment and is individual to each girl-highlighting their best assets while complimenting the brides taste, theme and style

So when picking think of this little tip-if anyone  in particular (or all) is calling all the shots- think to yourself-would she let me wear this dress/dictate to her, annoy everyone-for her own wedding?I DON’T THINK SO!
