51 Bridesmaid Dresses Your Friends Will Want To Wear Again And Again
If Meghan Markle can repeat dresses...
Big weddings, as of June 21, are back on the menu. This means that large venues, sweaty dance floors and a big bridal party are possible again. However, with the honour of becoming a friend's bridesmaid comes the dread of what dress you will be put in, or will have to shell out for. Happily though, many modern brides are ditching the ill-conceived and badly-fitted shapes (please, let's step away from those multi-way dresses), in favour of the sort of fashion-forward, trend-focussed, totally re-wearable bridesmaids dress that people might actually want to pop on for a second or third outing.
Instead of looking to traditional bridal stores for maid of honour and bridesmaids dresses, we're big believers in searching the places you already love, like Net-A-Porter, & Other Stories and Farfetch, to find dresses that both complement the bride's ensemble, and make the best women feel and look great too. Best of all, brands like Cecilie Bahnsen, Rixo, Ghost, Zimmermann, Reformation, Self-Portrait and even Miu Miu all make dresses in the same style and different colours, as well as different styles all on a theme, meaning each bridesmaid dress could vary in colour and shape to best flatter its wearer, without the entire bridal party aesthetic losing cohesion.
Plus, may we suggest bridesmaids wearing all-black or all-white ensembles in 2021? So chic.
We have collated the best bridesmaids dresses perfect for black tie nuptials through to beachside knot tying, that can be repeated again and again.
