The struggling economy these last few years has shaped the trends in the look and style of a bridesmaid dress. Even though the economy is looking up, some of those trends from the previous seasons are going to evolve into what the bridesmaid dresses will look like this spring!
The biggest trend in bridesmaid dresses has been knee-length dresses. Though many brides are still putting their bridesmaids in tea and floor length gowns, shorter lengths have become increasingly popular in recent years. Knee-length, cocktail-style dresses are much more likely to be worn again, so brides who want their bridal party to be able to reuse their dresses more easily have been moving toward shorter dresses. You can never guarantee wear ability for everyone, but by keeping reuse potential in the back of your mind, you'll be doing your bridesmaids a big favor.
The strapless dress also still holds its own, for bridal gowns and for bridesmaid dresses. Many, if not most, of the dresses for spring 2011 are strapless, an elegant style that emphasizes the neck and shoulders in a classically feminine way. A strapless bridesmaid dress that has been properly fitted to its wearer is one of the most flattering styles around. Just be sure to invest in a quality strapless bra!
A more edgy trend that has rapidly grown in popularity lately is the one-shoulder look. Bridesmaid dresses that hang off of one shoulder provide a unique shape and gives the bridal party a fashion forward, bold look. The single strap is a sassy and urban look that can also be feminine and delicate.
Sequin embellishments, Lace Floral, and beads are all feminine touches that are back this season to give a soft feminine look. In 2011 we are going to see a more body conscious look. Ruching, bows, and sashes are a popular trend to use in order to emphasize a natural waist line for classy look.
As far as colors go, this year we will be seeing some brights like orange, yellow, fuchsia, apple green, emerald, and amethyst. There will also be some of the classics present like Navy, chocolate brown, and gray.
Finally, the trend away from a completely matching bridal party to a more relaxed, color-coordinated but not identical group of bridesmaids is still going strong. More and more brides are letting their bridesmaids each choose a personally flattering and appealing dress in a selected color palette. By selecting the style of bridesmaid dresses on their own, bridesmaids will be sure to always have a dress that they love.
Regardless of the style, color, and cut of your bridesmaids dresses, in Spring 2011 the biggest trend is to make the saying "always a bridesmaid, never a bride" be a little less depressing by providing your bridesmaids with beautiful and wearable dresses that they will love forever.
