The 8 Stunning Bridesmaid Dress Trends That Will Rule in 2024
Before introducing you to the 8 stars of the blog we’ve especially picked for you, let’s see the 8 trends for the ideal bridesmaid dress in the UK which will help you decide what dress best fits your girl friends.
- Olive green bridesmaid dress: this beautiful tone is perfect if you want your bridesmaids to look different and original. A dark yet elegant colour, olive green is harmonic and looks good both on light and dark skins, making it a perfect choice if your group of friends are of a variety of skin tones.
- Dusty rose bridesmaid dress: yeah, we know! Dusty rose bridesmaid dresses shout classic, but it’s a classic colour for a reason, isn’t it? What better way to make your bridesmaids look sweet than with dusty rose dresses? Besides, the colour matches white (your dress, of course!) perfectly well. What’s more, it goes well with every skin tone.
- Satin bridesmaid dress: Satin is a delicate fabric that always looks so sexy! With its natural shine, satin dresses do not need any addition to decorate them. They are just enough to make your bridesmaids look wonderful!
- Pleated bridesmaid dress: pleated styles are on trend this 2024, especially in the bust area. The magic of pleated dresses lies on the fact that they add decoration to the dress and there’s no need to add much. If you don’t feel like wearing jewelry, then here are some good news for you: you don’t need to!
- One shoulder bridesmaid dress: bold, sexy, elegant…all in one. One shoulder dresses are not for everyone: you should be ready to embrace that strange feeling of wearing your outfit in an irregular style. For this style, it is not recommended to add necklaces, but you can totally go for some striking earrings!
- Sequined and shiny bridesmaid dresses: if you want your bridesmaids to be on the spotlight, then some shine will do the job. Shiny fabrics always make dresses look impressive, but if you want to take a step further, then sequins are the answer. Again, no need to add much decoration here: the dress will do it all!
- Mix-and-match: this is a great option if you want to impress your guests with your bridesmaids! It is also a great choice if your team is varied in terms of age, height, body shape, etc., because by mixing and matching the dresses, every maid will be able to choose their own style. Choose a colour and let them do the rest! Easy task, isn’t it?
- Sleeveless bridesmaid dress: fresh, comfortable and sexy. Sleeveless dresses are perfect for hot weathers. They are classic and never get old!
How to Create the Most Gorgeous Girls Lineup at Your Wedding
We’ve read so far about the 2024 trends for bridesmaids: from the classic pink bridesmaid dress to one-shoulder dresses to sequins. You can analyze those 8 trends and choose the ones that are more appropriate. So now, how can you create a gorgeous girls lineup at your wedding? Well, of course everything has to do with the dress, but before choosing it, here’s a list of tips to take into account:
- Ask your girls what they’d like. Before making the final decision, take them into consideration. They will guide you towards the best choice. Remember that a woman in a dress that doesn’t feel comfortable, will not shine. You don’t want that, right?
- The dress colour is vital, but you should let them choose. Again, if your bridesmaids wear a colour they don’t like at all, it will show. If the colour they choose is not what you like, you can always negotiate on different tones! Typical colours are pink, sage, burgundy, lavanda, light brown.
- Accessories need to match. The dress is not everything: jewelry, shoes, purses and hairstyle need to match so that there’s harmony. For that reason, everything should be considered beforehand. If the dress is simple, you can select attractive jewelry. If you chose sequined or shiny bridesmaid dresses, then you can opt for simpler jewelry or even none at all. With makeup and hairstyle is similar: colourful styles for simpler dresses and basic, nude tones for brighter and attractive dresses.
- The underwear is important as well. This might sound silly, but there’s nothing worst than wearing the wrong bra or panties during a celebration. Depending on the dress style, make sure your girls wear comfortable underwear. For example, for one-shoulder dresses, they need to make sure the bra is supportive yet comfortable.
