Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life and it is crucial for every detail to be pitch perfect. Of course, we are all aware that the bride is the focal point of the whole wedding. But in order for a bride to become the centre of attention, she needs a little help from her bridesmaids. When it comes to the perfect bridesmaid look, it is time to forget everything you knew about old-fashioned trends and styles, because 2016 is all about innovations. In order to create the best bridesmaid look for your wedding, we recommend taking a look at what 2016 has in store for you:
Style:
If you are wondering what kinds of dresses are in this year, it can be put quite simply in two words –
subtle beauty. 2016 is all about enhancing the mesmerizing beauty of the bridesmaids, without too
much extravagance or details. Because of this, the best choice of dress is definitely knee-length or floor-length. Also, keep in mind that strapless dresses will never go out of style. Another elegant dress style for bridesmaids this year is definitely the empire line dress, which never fails to create a magical look.
Color:
This year is all about getting out of the comfort zone. Forget the subtle and pastel colours and opt for
bold tones for your bridesmaids. If you have thought that black could never be a bridesmaid colour, you have never been so wrong. Purple is also rising to the top with all its marvellous tones and shades. Darker tones are very much in this year so it is also a good idea to opt for some dark green, grey or blue colour shades. Do not hesitate to incorporate some subtle patterns into the dresses just to make it a tad more interesting.
Material:
When thinking about the best materials for the dresses make sure to think about two things: glamour and luxury. And we all know what fabrics enable us to accomplish this elegant vibe. In 2016 focus on dresses made from satin and chiffon in order to bring that classy vibe to the complete setting. Crinkle chiffon and Duchess Satin never fail to surprise, so do not hesitate to opt for these majestic materials for the bridesmaids. But of course, the most important thing is the comfort after all, so it wise to consult with the bridesmaids beforehand.
(Mis)Match:
The traditional rule of matching bridesmaids’ dresses is long gone; there are a lot of new and innovative ways to create a matching look without wearing the same dresses. It is a good idea to change the style of the flower girl dresses just to add more excitement to the complete wedding. But when it comes to the bridesmaids, focus on changing some subtle features like the length or the tone of the dresses. Multi-way dresses are definitely one of the best choices this year. Also, changing the neckline and fabrics but keeping the same colour is also a great idea.This year the idea of bridesmaid dress focuses on bold colours, simple cuts and subtle beauty. The look of your bridesmaids should just compliment and follow your own, so make sure to put enough effort in choosing the best outfit for your girls.
