How to Choose Long Sleeves & Spaghetti Straps Convertible & Pockets Illusion Back Bridesmaid Dresses

Long sleeves are the winter and black-tie answer: full cover to the wrist, no wrap required, and the most formal line a bridesmaid can wear. The warmest and most formal sleeve in the range. Keep jewellery minimal and let the sleeve finish the look.

Fine straps keep the shoulder line light without going strapless, which makes them the reassuring middle ground for a party that wants some support. Delicate and adjustable, and the strap can usually be shortened at fitting. Ask for a strap adjustment rather than a bodice alteration.

A convertible dress is tied rather than cut into one neckline, so a party of six can each wear the shoulder line that suits them in a single shade and cloth. One dress that adapts across a mixed party, tied to each wearer. Agree on two tie styles across the party so photographs stay cohesive.

Pockets are the request every bridesmaid makes twice: somewhere to put a phone through a long day, hidden in the side seam so the line of the skirt never changes. Cut deep enough for a phone and a lipstick without breaking the drape. Best on a fuller skirt, where the opening disappears into the seam.

An illusion back fills the opening with sheer cloth, so the shape stays low and open while the dress keeps its structure and stays comfortable to dance in. The look of an open back with the security of a closed one. Best in lace, where the panel becomes part of the pattern.

Every shade is dyed to one standard across 0 shades, so a party mixing hems, necklines and cloths still reads as a single palette in photographs. Order up to 10 swatches free before you commit.
