something borrowed no.3

We know you have heard this before: the idea of “rewearable” bridesmaid dresses. But the horrors of websites like uglydress.com and the movie 27 dresses really makes one wonder why brides even bother to spin this little white lie.

But we think 2010 bridesmaid dresses really are “borrowed” straight from the runways! The colours are hot, the styles are something you would wear for a night out on the town and the accessories are identical to what you would buy in “normal” shops.

The trend really is to have a look that is “co-hesive” rather than “cookie cutter”. It is about having the same colour or the same style or the same look or feature – but not all three. The idea is to look like the bride and her bridesmaids went on a fabulous shopping spree for their outfits - all a little bit the same but not too much!
