1. White Lace: A look you can never go wrong with is having your girls rock white lace dresses. A far cry from the days when no one but the bride should wear white to a wedding, this bridesmaid trend is totally on fire, and we are 100% behind it!

2. Ombre: Give us all the ombré everything…including ombré  bridesmaid dresses! To achieve this look takes a little bit of planning, but the end result is totally worth it! Have each girl wear a subtle variation on one shade, creating a gradient-like effect with their dresses.

3. Sequin/Metallic: This look is so good, it’s practically becoming our favorite way to add a little bit of glam-factor to your day! There are endless ways to pull off this idea. Opt for all the same designer, mismatched frocks, or double up on the trends and go for ombré sequin dresses!

4. Separates: Two piece wedding dresses are all the rage, so it only makes sense that this look has now trickled down to the bridesmaids! The best thing about this style is that it’s so super easy to achieve and will (without a doubt) look great. If you’re planning to give this look a go, we say pick at least one of the two elements to be cohesive, if not both. Because just how cute are those gals in matching polka dot shirts + tulle skirts above?!

5. All in Black: Having your gals all in black in fun way to really make you stand out and creates a super elegant bridal party, don’t you agree? We love how these gals above took the trend a bit further with their black lace dresses! Just as good at a chic, indoor affair as they are at a low-key outdoor soirée, your girls will really thank you if you go for this look! Not only is this style easy to find, but it’s one bridesmaid dress that they will without a doubt wear again and again.

6. Florals: Floral dresses are a favorite around here and when we see a whole bridal party decked out in this look, we’re definitely feelin’ it every time. They’re easy to shop for and often affordable – and like the black lace dress trend above – your girls will definitely get a lot of mileage out of their new floral frock.

7. Mismatched Dresses: The mismatched dress trend has been going strong for a couple of years, but what we’ve noticed recently is that bridesmaids are pulling it off better and better every time we see it! The key is to decide on at least one similarity (length, dressiness, etc.) and to keep the color palette somewhat cohesive.

We hope you loved reading about our personal fave bridesmaid dress trends – and remember, we’ll be diving deeper into each style in the months to come. With our trend alerts, styling tips and shopping guides, you’ll be sure to find the right bridesmaid look for your day!
