Bridesmaid Dress Help

Stacie, on February 19, 2020 at 10:28 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 10

Hello everyone,

I have my bridesmaid dress, a trumpet style gown, stretch crepe. I wanted to have my 2 other bridesmaid gowns the same style but due to sizes not being available, it looks like I will have to choose another style and material of dress.

I am having trouble deciding if a straight A-line gown or a flowy gown would be best. I am unable to find stretch crepe gowns in the needed sizes so the fabric will be different. All of them will be wearing the same color but 2 will be wearing different style gowns. I can't find any pictures of bridesmaids with different gown styles and fabrics. Not sure how this would look. Any thoughts?

    I would go to David's Bridal for the other dresses and show them a picture of the one dress you already have.

    Hi Stacie,
    Not sure what your looking for exactly, this is my bridesmaids dress, it comes in 32 colors, it's from jjshouse, which not everyone speaks highly off, but I've purchased 4 evening dresses from them previously and loved them all!Bridesmaid Dress Help 1

    Body shape is a huge factor in how dresses look. As far as the difference, as long as you and your party are happy and the dresses fit within the appropriate person's budget, that's all that matters.

    Wow! Nice. I saw this website but I was thinking "What if I need alterations?" I don't think Davids Bridal works on gowns from other stores. Does the site have negative reviews?

    I am learning this. In looking at some gowns in women with different body shapes and heights, I have realized that I must take this in consideration.

    I have done that. Had 2 fittings in the store with 2 of my bridesmaids and they were out of the sizes and went online and they were out of the sizes. This is getting stressful lol. I think I will just choose another style and work it from there.

    These are my BM dresses and the two colors. Two of my BM will wear one color & the other two will wear the other color!!


    Also these days BM dresses don't all have to be same style or all wear same color. I would ask your bridal consultant and see what suggestions she has with what dresses look good together and the colors. That's what I did because I couldn't pick colors n then I had picked different BM style of dresses but all my bridesmaids chose this dress because they all loved it on them and they all said it was comfortable.
    I would give your BM options because not every dress you pick out and want them to wear will flatter them plus they want to feel beautiful and be comfortable in the dress since they're be wearing it for hours.

    Definitely! It's a learning experience if you've only been dress shopping by yourself before going shopping for bridesmaids dresses. 🤷🏽‍♀️
