Being a bridesmaid no longer means donning head-to-toe matching outfits. Mixing and matching separates, playing with colors and details, or allowing each lady to choose her own most flattering dress shape, lets you offer your attendants something much more than a place in your bridal party: the opportunity to look and feel their best in the spotlight.

Select Different Silhouettes
If your attendants are various weights and sizes, try selecting a manufacturer, color, and fabric, then let each bridesmaid choose the dress style. Many designers offer dozens of silhouettes in a single color, from universally flattering A-lines to sexy halter-top numbers. Keep in mind that your bridesmaids don’t have to select drastically different designs — they can stand apart just as easily in contrasting necklines or hemlines.

Choose a Color
Select a universally flattering silhouette, then let each girl pick a shade that flatters her skin tone. Passionate about purple? March your maids down the aisle in lavender, lilac, amethyst, and plum. Or, choose a color range that matches the mood of your wedding. For example, if you’re exchanging vows at the ocean, a bridal party in shades of blue will look dreamy. Complete the look using the same array of shades for your attendant flowers and accessories.
