Bridesmaids from almost every era have proclaimed their love for dresses they can wear again. 2017 bridesmaids are no different, and brides continue to pick out the cutest separates, modern mix and matches, and beautiful ready-to-wear dresses that say buh-bye to traditional details and hello to pieces that can be worn on any given Tuesday. For this trend, think convertibles, crop tops, long skirts, and blouses.
Tulle/Illusion Fabric
Light as air and oh-so dreamy, illusion fabrics like tulle and mesh netting make for beautiful bridesmaid dress details. Bridesmaids in tea-length tulle look especially nice when standing next to a bride in floor-length tulle. And a pastel color palette looks pretty during a spring wedding or in a wedding with a garden theme.
