Coloured bridesmaid dresses to make a bold statement
Choosing the colour of your bridesmaid dresses can be a challenge – do you opt for a neutral colour and risk having the bridesmaid dresses outdo the bride’s or do you use colour to flatter the main dress of the day? Coloured bridesmaid dresses have made a big comeback in the past few years, and strong colours are a great way to make a memorable statement on your big day. While some bold colours can be jarring or date quickly, purple bridesmaid dresses are a good option if you are looking for a strong colour statement, with a range of different tones and hues to mix it up.
Dark purple bridesmaid dresses make a strong wedding day statement, with the depth of the bold dark purple against traditional alabaster and ivory wedding dress fabrics a stunning contrast. Dark purple can flatter almost any body shape, and this versatile colour works across the seasons. From mulberry to grape there are a range of different colour shades that will work to create elegant and stylish purple bridesmaid dresses.
Often, there are many opinions on preferred styles and colours, and it’s hard to make everyone happy. For another option try selecting one style of dress and having it made from a few different, shades of purple. With a range of light and dark purple bridesmaid dresses, you can add variety, and cater for any individual colour preferences that your ladies in waiting may have. Combine dark purple bridesmaid dresses with lighter purple flower girls dresses as a play on your purple theme.
It’s well known that there are two ways to keep a bridesmaid happy. Firstly, choose a colour and style of dress that they can wear again and secondly, make it affordable so that they aren’t too annoyed if they can’t wear it again! The range of different depths of purple available makes this colour a versatile and flexible choice for your wedding party. The best thing about purple is that it can look elegant in either a long or short dress, strapless or with sleeves. And you don’t have to stop with purple bridesmaid dresses. Add a purple touch to the men in the wedding party – try a white shirt with fine purple pinstripes, matching purple handkerchiefs, or even something as subtle as matching dark purple socks!
