Do you want to express your gratitude to the women in your bridal party?
Sure, they’ll appreciate the bridesmaid gift you get them. They will very likely enjoy themselves immensely at your bachelorette party. And they will appreciate the chance to dance and be merry at your wedding reception.
But if you really want to ingratiate yourself with your bridesmaids, there’s one thing that trumps everything else you can do: pick out a bridesmaid dress that they can actually wear again!
Lucky for you, there are dozens of bridal party dresses that not only look beautiful, but also are styled so they can be worn long after the big day! Here are a few of the styles you can choose from which have above-the-knee hemlines:
Flirty Charmeuse
A fashionable charmeuse dress has a strapless neckline for a fun and playful look. The basic silhouette shape and ruched waist makes it a great all-occasion outfit for months and years to come. It is available in twenty colors, and even comes with convenient pockets!
Strapless Satin
You may also consider a flirty and trendy strapless satin dress that will flatter anyone who wears it. Look for a fitted bodice and a full skirt with pretty paillette details which add flair and sparkle.
Y-Neck Cotton
Looking for a comfortable, versatile dress with an amazing array of colors to choose from? Check out short cotton dresses that combine smart skirt pleating with Y-neck detail and a sleeveless silhouette for a relaxed-yet-flattering fit. After the wedding, the dress is adaptable enough to be worn with either heels or sandals.
Cotton Sateen
For another great option, consider a dress with pleasing ruching at the waist and on the bust. Your bridesmaids will love this short strapless cotton sateen dress with its bouncy and charming details. Add some simple jewelry and flats, and your bridesmaids have the perfect warm weather outfit long after your nuptials have passed. This dress is also available in an incredible 40 colors.
Short Chiffon
Bridesmaids are sure to shine in a short strapless dress made of soft crinkle chiffon for a striking drape and shape. Its pleating detail gives a modern look to the hemline while slimming the waist. The fully-lined garment has a hidden back zip and comes in your choice of 12 colors.
Sleeveless Cotton V-Neck
If you’re shying away from the strapless design, a sleeveless V-neck bodice may be the look you’re searching for. Made of comfortable cotton sateen, this lovely outfit also has a tapered waist that is accented in front with a knot detail. A short A-line skirt with flattering pleats rounds out the dress, which is available in 11 colors.
Strapless Cotton Sateen
To ensure the ultimate in versatile post-wedding wear, check out a short strapless cotton sateen dress with a removable flower at the waist, which can transform a semi-formal look into an everyday one. The bodice has just the right amount of ruching to give the garment a sweet, slimming look. It looks fabulous in any of the 11 available colors.
A-Line Halter Neck
For a fun and flirty look, start with a chic, feminine short chiffon dress. Then add a sleek halter neckline and an A-line silhouette with subtle pleating. Then you have the ideal wear-again bridesmaid dress whose 40 shade choices guarantees that it will match your wedding colors.
One-Shoulder Taffeta
If you are looking for a unique look for your bridal party, go for a shiny taffeta dress. The one-shoulder silhouette design is cutting-edge yet tasteful, and it comes in 13 different colors. Flirty and fun, this outfit can be dressed up or down – or even worn with a cardigan for a casual night out.
Taffeta Bubble Hem
A strapless bubble hem dress screams party time! Made of flat taffeta, this dress features a figure-flattering ruched waist and a matching sash that can be tied in front, in back, or on the side. Let your bridesmaids turn heads in one of 14 available colors.
Charmeuse Flower Appliqué
With 20 colors to choose from, you can’t go wrong with this strapless short charmeuse and chiffon dress. It comes with a distinctive flower appliqué on the chest. The draping from the bust line creates a soft, flowing look that can be dressed up or down with ease.
Short Jersey Dress
Your bridal party will appreciate this stunning-yet-wrinkle-free dress which will be ideal for traveling long after your wedding date has passed. The short jersey dress comes with a charmeuse waist and a palette of 20 colors to pick from. But the most distinguishing aspect of this garment is the sharp keyhole detail at the neckline.
If you’ve ever been a bridesmaid yourself, you know how much of an expense those dresses can be. And if you can’t ever wear a bridesmaid dress again, the money you spent is gone for good the day after the wedding event. But if the dress can be brought out for another occasion in the future, it’s much easier to feel like you’ve gotten your money’s worth!
So check out some of beautiful bridesmaid dresses today. Your wedding party will thank you!
