2010 Bridesmaid Dress Trends

As usual during wedding planning season, the Mrs2Be office has been out at the bridal fayres over the weekend. We were interested to find out more about the latest in bridesmaid dress fashion and we love what we saw!

As we said last week, the latest trend in bridesmaids is dresses that match in colour only. In fact, in some cases the dresses don't actually have to match in colour. For example, if your wedding colours are red and black, it is acceptable this season to go for a combination of these colours for the bridesmaids. So if you have bridesmaids that suit different styles or...dare we say it, bridesmaids that are hard to please this may just be a saving grace! Simply pick your wedding colours and let them choose their own style and colour variation!

Bridesmaid dresses this season are bright and short and lighter in fabric than we have seen for a while. Expect to see everything from tutu netting to chiffon, it's out with the satin and in with something lighter and easier to move in. When it comes to length, again less is more. Forget long formal gowns as these will look too ordinary this season. Shorter length dresses are back and the trend is simple straight edges with embellishments.

As we know already, pink is still in this season so think girly. Bright statement colours such as shocking pink and blazing orange will turn heads on the catwalk this season. Bridesmaids are there to be seen and like it or not are about to get sexier than ever!

Happy Planning
