Maybe your not a “matchy, matchy” kind of girl. Maybe your bridesmaids are so distinct as individuals that you want to showcase their uniqueness. Perhaps, you understand that one dress style may not be flattering on every bridesmaid’s figure (they’re not Rockettes after all). If any of these thoughts strike a chord than mismatched bridesmaid dresses are for you. There are several ways to approach this look, but they all create a cohesive and coordinated statement.

If you decide to go with mismatched bridesmaids dresses remember flowers, hair, makeup, and accessories are all ways to unify the look. Take into consideration the feelings and ideas of your gals. Some women are not comfortable in shorter length dresses and some don’t want to spend the day in a strapless gown. With all the beautiful choices available, you are sure to find a dress to make them feel and look amazing.
