1. Rosette One Shoulder by BCBCMAXAZRIA 
The draping in front of this rose dress is extremely flattering on any body type, as it is slightly hugging the right parts of the body to give off a very feminine shape. Love the embellished strap for spring!

2. Audrey by BCBGMAXAZRIA
This dress is beautifully simple. Similar yet so different from option one. This is for the bride who is more clean cut and traditional. I love this dress for the more type-A bride.

3. Sleeveless Pleated Chiffon Dress by Maggy London
This orange is absolutely stunning. The chiffon layers are very playful.  The right belt can make this dress very flattering. I would opt for a gold metallic belt over brown to make it a bit dressier.

4. Dotted Chandler Romper by Kate Spade
Who doesn't love polka dots? This dress is for the fun couple that is doing everything a little different. This spring we are going to see many brides choosing non-traditional dresses for their bridesmaids. It is becoming very popular to let your bridesmaids personalities show through their dress- polka dots versus plain make a very different statement!

5. Lavender Label Organza Dress by Vera Wang
This is bridesmaid chic. I love the color, simplicity and yet fashion-forward style of this dress. It is a daring choice! 

6. One Shoulder Metal Taffeta Dress by BCBGMAXAZRIA
Another dress very similar to option one, yet extremely different. This form fitting, metallic dress with the rose on the shoulder is for the sexy bride. This is very Sex in the City.

7. One Shoulder Ruched Chiffon Dress by Monique Lhuillier 
This option is appropriate for many different ages, yet the blue makes it much more fun! The cinched waist makes it a very flattering option. 

8. Heritage Matte Jersey Dress by Halston 
Although you aren't typically supposed to wear white to a wedding, this color hue is becoming more and more popular. Adding a beautiful, colorful bouquet of flowers will make your alter absolutely pop! This dress is flattering, simple, and chic. Dress it up with a colorful pump or statement necklace!

9. One Shoulder by Cut25
This yellow is so fun! Spring weddings should be bright and beautiful, which makes this dress absolutely perfect! Another dress that is easy to dress up with the right bouquet or statement necklace. The yellow can demand its own attention though, making it a very simple dress.

I am confident that your bridesmaids will look perfectly styled for a beautiful spring or summer wedding! If you have any questions on how to choose the right dress, feel free to email me at jocelyn@sterlingengagements.com

1. JS Collections Strapless Chiffon Dress

This dress is great black option that is still very appropriate for spring. The floral detail and sweetheart cut is absolutely stunning and feminine. The black color gives it a bit more edge. 

2. Jenny Yoo Collection Convertible Strapless Chiffon Gown
This dress is simple and chic. Great option for a beach wedding. The light gray is subtle but would really pop with a bright floral arrangement or statement necklace!

3. Adrianna Papell Tiered Iridescent Chiffon Dress
The ruffles in this dress are very forgiving, which is never a bad quality. Not only is this dress flattering but it is very flirty and fun! 

4. Amsale Rosette Trim Strapless Chiffon Gown
This dress is absolutely gorgeous. It has a very flattering cut. No jewelry required, the two roses steal the show.

5. Donna Morgan Strapless Silk Chiffon Dress
This is a very sweet, innocent color and cut. Another flattering option! You can give your girls the freedom to dress this one up by adding a statement necklace that represents their style, as the dress is so simple.

6. ML Monique Lhuillier Strapless Chiffon Gown
Oh Monique, you are an absolute genius. The color, the length, the ruffle detail. Could not be more perfect. No bridesmaid would complain when getting paired with this dress!

7. ML Monique Lhuillier Strapless Ruched Cationic Chiffon Dress
This dress is extremely sexy! The eggplant color really pops. The ruching makes the dress classy, even if it is very form fitting.

With the detail and flattering cut of these strapless dresses, your friends will be ecstatic to walk down the aisle before you! Have any questions about how to choose the right dresses? Email me at jocelyn@sterlingengagements.com
