Not all women are shaped the same and it isn’t likely that your chosen bridesmaids will be the same size. Even those with that are the same size have different features they’d rather not show off. Finding the same bridesmaid dress for all the ladies would be difficult and some may not like it. These reasons make choosing a dress seem near impossible. It may not be easy, but it is possible to choose and dress that will be good looking and everyone can live with. Your dress shopping may be easier by following these tips.
Assess Body Types
Take a realistic look at the bodies of your bridesmaids. Have a photo of each girl alone and try to imagine how a dress would look on her. Which of her features (belly, butt, boobs) should be hidden and which should be highlighted?
Colors
Black is the best color for slimming and hiding the flaws that make a girl uncomfortable. Bright or light colors show most things that a dark color would normally hide. A dresses color can reveal quite a bit but the cut and style is also a contributor.
The Right Fabric
No matter what shape or size you might be, some fabrics are just unforgiving. Satin, fitted silk, and spandex blends should be avoided at all costs. Choose rayon blend, chiffon, or polyester cotton blend as alternatives. They provide more room for stretch without squeezing and showing off the features you’d rather keep hidden.
Sleeves
Take into consideration how a girls’ arms would look in a sleeveless dress. Some women’s are would not be flattered by strapless or sleeveless dresses. When looking at the various dress styles, be sure to take this into consideration. If you are set on sleeveless and soft of the bridesmaids are uncomfortable, offer a shawl or wrap for them to cover with.
What Accessories to Use
To bring unity and change the look of a dress, add belts, shawls, gloves, or bolero jackets. To cover up belly bulk or accent a small waistline, try using a wide ribbon as belts can define a waistline. Bolero jackets can add style or hide unsightly arm flabbiness.
Styles
The same dress doesn’t have to be worn by all bridesmaids. It is quite common for the bride to choose different dresses of a specific color but allow each girl to choose the style that fits them best. All dresses will be similar and coordinated but length, form, and neckline may be different.
