The latest trend in bridesmaid dresses…
A new wave of wedding themes is sweeping the wedding industry by storm and one of those is cottagecore. This dreamy motif is all about the eye-catching aesthetics of a country cottage, pleasing color palettes of wildflowers, nostalgia-inducing food, and decors that are presented via the magical vibe of the countryside and outdoors. Along with the cottagecore theme comes vintage and Victorian-inspired lace bridesmaid dresses that are feminine and romantic with just the right touch of whimsy. Cottagecore bridesmaid dresses are light and flowing with ruffled hemlines and sleeves that cast an ethereal air to the wearer.
Another popular choice for bridesmaid attires these days is the satin slip dress. Inspired by the ‘90s, this silhouette is sleek, sexy, and flattering to just about any body type. Slip dresses come in a variety of colors and can be short or long. If it comes off as too simple, the dress can be vamped up with bold and chunky accessories. A satin sage green bridesmaid dress would fit just about any type of wedding – a garden affair, a modern party, and even a lowkey backyard BBQ nuptial.
The latest trends in bridesmaid shoes…
Shoes are an integral part of the bridesmaid look that’s why finding the perfect pair that complements the dress is crucial. Subtle sophistication in shoes is all the rage these days. Sparkly but not attention-grabbing. Quiet elegance that blends well with any bridal dress style.
Following the cottagecore wedding trend, whimsical shoes are also a top choice. Fun pairs with unexpected details like feather or chiffon floral embellishments, tassels, bows, and bold beadwork.
Straps are also in. They look so good with both short and floor-length bridesmaid dresses and instantly add spice and sultriness to any outfit.
The latest in bridesmaid hair and makeup…
Superb makeup is like the cherry on top of a really good outfit. The most in-demand makeup looks these days are anchored toward natural assets and effortless beauty. We’re saying goodbye to heavy contouring and false eyelashes and saying hello to rosy cheeks, glowing skin, neutral lips, and “no makeup” makeup looks.
As for hairstyles, updos are still the way to go – but with a twist. Messy chignons are much preferred. The tousled texture adds a romantic softness and personality to the overall vision. Ponytails are still on trend – high ponytails for an edgy air and low ponytails for a classic and chic finish. Beautiful styling ideas to keep you ahead of bridesmaid fashion.
