Bridesmaids: Mismatched & Marvelous!


Notice that although the styles and colors (even patterns) are different, the hemlines are basically the same, giving it a cohesive look. I think that if you had long and short gowns, it might be a bit too much.

In this photo, also from Manolo, you’ve got brides wearing pretty much the same style dresses, but in mix-n-match shades of blue. I think it’s a beautiful look and also gives your bridesmaids some degree of freedom in picking a gown.



The problem that some brides have with identical dresses in the same color is that it’s boring, predictable, and stiff. If you want something different but aren’t willing to give up the matching dresses, wearing patterned bridesmaids’ dresses is a fun way to go. You can choose from plaid, polka dot, floral, stripes, and more, like these pretty bridesmaids’ dresses from Dessy:


Here’s a bridal party looking quite chic and retro in stunning black and white dresses from Tory Burch. (Thanks KenzieKate for the image.)
