Tips memilih Mix & Match pakaian untuk Bridesmaids-mu,
- No one hue. Unless you opt for something like white, gold or black, don’t ask all your girls to
pick up a dress in a single designated colour. Chances are if you ask for five green dresses, one
will stand out as the wrong hue. Many brands offer lots of styles in the same tone, so opt for one
of them, and let your girls make their choice.
- Don’t delegate it all. You might be tempted to give your girls a free reign, but your bridesmaids
will appreciate some direction. Make a Pinterest board of colours and textures you like, or show
them the rest of your wedding inspiration, so they have an idea of the look and feel you’re going
for. “A black dress” can be anything from an office staple to a gothic gown, so pointers are always
helpful.

- Hook them up. Mix and match can be really handy if you’re not all available for a group
shopping trip. Say you have six bridesmaids spread across the country so you’ve asked your girls
to get dresses in either blush, mauve or taupe. So far, so easy! Just be sure to put them in touch
with one another, to make sure your hues are even spread across the bunch.
- Sparkle or lace. Don’t be afraid to introduce patterns, sequins, ruffle or lace for a really fashion
forward take on the trend.
- A shade away. If you’re going for an ombre look, or choosing colours from a similar spectrum,
try to ensure the dresses are a full shade apart, as dresses that are almost the same colour but
not quite, might look odd in the pictures.

- Select some swatches. Make things easy for yourself and opt to get your dresses from a
readily mix and matchable collection (like Dessy, Donna Morgan, Amsale, Twobirds, or Jenny
Yoo). They might already have examples of dresses that go well together, but order swatches if
you’re unsure.
- Toss out the rule book. There are so many articles on rules for constructing a palette of mix
and match dresses, like sticking to a maximum of three colours, avoiding more than two
differences in a dress, and keeping the same hemlines. But the truth is, there are no rules.

Just look at the dresses below for inspiration, and you’ll see that clashing colours, wild patterns,
and different textures can look great together, if your girls have the confidence to pull them off.
