Every bride wants to look back at her wedding photos and love what she and her bridal party were wearing. But finding one style to suit all your friends’ tastes is no easy feat. So to avoid dressing your bridesmaids in generic gowns that lack all personality—a safe but perhaps bland route—why not opt for a vintage style that will withstand the test of time?
It is true that fashion trends tend to come as quickly as they go, but the ahead classic, retro-inspired silhouettes are arguably eternally cool. From the elegant tea-length dresses of the ’50s, and the always flattering wrap dress that became popular in the ’70s (thanks, DVF!) to the minimalist-friendly slips from the ’90s, these pieces may spark a bit of nostalgia and hopefully some excitement from your favourite squad members, too.
