When choosing bridesmaid dresses, there are so many options to consider. Evening gown or mid-length, strapless or halter, solid color or pattern? Not only do you want a dress that will complement the wedding theme, but more importantly, you want a dress that your bridesmaids will feel confident and beautiful in. We’ve collected a few dress styles and colors we love to inspire you and your loved ones on your hunt for the perfect bridesmaid dress. Happy shopping!
 

Romantic Pastels

There’s something just so romantic about pastel dresses. The softness of the colors is flattering and adds a fairytale quality to the wedding theme. These colors paired with the long, evening gown form makes for a super elegant look for your bridesmaids. We love this lavender Cameron Blake by Mon Cheri, available at Couture Candy, because the tie-waist creates such a flattering silhouette. And the light peach color of this BHLDN dress at Anthropologie would be perfect paired with a succulent bouquet or an outside wedding. The little star details and slit on this Frock and Frill dress at ASOS are beautiful and add a playful touch to a more traditional bridesmaid dress.
 

Autumn Colors

We love fall weddings for the rich color schemes, cool — but not cold — air, and the beautiful backdrop of changing leaves. This Jatin Varma sheath dress at Saks Fifth Avenue has a stunning dark teal color that will make your wedding stand out, plus the sheer high neck keeps it formal without losing the beautiful style of the deep V-neck. Go for this maroon Ted Baker dress at Bloomingdale’s for that traditional fall style we all know and love. Or look at this gorgeous lace Tadashi Shoji dress at Nordstrom for a classic LBD style.

 

Bold Jewel Tones

Jewels are classy and elegant — just like your bridesmaids! This chiffon Dessy dress from Nordstrom channels dresses of the Film Noir era. The V-neck and wrap style is flattering, and the dress comes in a variety of colors for whatever theme you have. We love the deep navy blue color of this Faviana dress from Couture Candy, it would be perfect for a winter wedding (indoors, of course!). And at Saks Fifth Avenue you can shop for this Chiara Boni dress. The pop of fuchsia is so fun and would look stunning next to a crisp white wedding dress.
