Vintage Bridesmaid Dresses

Selecting your bridesmaid dresses can be a difficult task because there are so many options, not only in colors and style, but in the overall look.  You can have your bridesmaids where the same dress of the same color, different dresses of the same color, same dress but different colors, similar overall style, etc.  There are so many options I wish I could design a different wedding style, vision, and color palette every weekend.  Today I would design vintage-inspired bridal parties with different dresses in complimentary colors for spring or summer weddings.  I'm pulling my inspirations today from ModCloth, an online retail store at http://www.modcloth.com/.

Bridal Style in Color

Since the Victorian era bridal gowns have been available primarily in white or ivory; however, wearing a colored bridal gown was common prior the mid 1800s. Recently some of the top designers are expanding their color horizons to create a new trend in our generation.  Designers like Vera Wang, Watters, and Monique Lhuillier are including blush, grey, and light green gowns in their collections for 2012. 

 Blush, Oatmeal, and Peach: A soft color for a bridal gown that can bring out your natural skin tones.
