Tips For Choosing Modest Bridesmaid Dresses

Choosing flattering, modest and tasteful bridesmaid dresses can be a challenge for you. Some brides may like elegant bridesmaid dresses for religious reasons, rules coordinate with your wedding theme, or even your own taste and values. Elegant and modest bridesmaid dresses are suitable for various weddings from informal to formal.

There are some basics rules for choosing modest bridesmaid dresses. While personal guidelines regarding modesty may vary, most modest dresses will cover the knees, back, upper chest and, in some instances, the upper arms. These dresses may have a crewneck, V-neck or scoop neck, but will not be low cut or reveal cleavage. A cap sleeve, short sleeve or 3/4-sleeve is appropriate, but a sleeveless dress may also meet many modesty standards if worn with a cardigan or wrap.

Some retailers produce bridesmaids dresses and gowns designed specifically for a modest clientele. Many of these offer affordable dresses, often in fabrics and colors similar to those used by major bridal wear manufacturers. If you need dresses that meet more significant modesty requirements, for instance, those common in the Church of Christ of Latter-Day Saints, specialty retailers are more likely to meet your needs and may be able to adapt dresses to special requirements. While some more formal styles are available, these dresses are often cocktail length, coming to just below the knee. They typically have a high neckline, sleeves and a full-coverage back but incorporate details, such as pleating, ruching and lace, common to more mainstream retailers.

One of the most affordable options for bridesmaids who prefer modest dresses is to opt for modest dresses not intended for the bridal market, but sold through a department store or a boutique catering to a

more modest clientele. While these may not be formal enough for an evening wedding, a dressy day dress or simple and modest cocktail dress is a fashionable and tasteful option for a daytime or garden wedding. Consider floral dresses with coordinating sweaters for a casual garden wedding or simple lace dresses in pastel shades for a summer ceremony. Retro styles, with full, below-the-knee skirts and high necklines may also meet modesty standards. Opting for department store dresses works especially well if you are planning on mismatched bridesmaids dresses, connected with a color scheme or theme.

Finding the right bridesmaid dresses associated with your wedding theme which are also modest is not an easy job. But it is your big day and every bride wants a perfect wedding, so time is worth spending, I believe every bride can make it.
