Bridesmaid dresses you can wear outside the church
In the vast majority of cases it is the bridesmaids who are tasked with paying for their own bridesmaid dresses. If you are a bridesmaid at several weddings this year, this can start to become a costly honour. Unless you are made of money this can mean you turning down the offer of becoming your friend’s bridesmaid, although this doesn’t have to be so.
Bridesmaid dresses have come along way in over the last couple of years. They aren’t all fluffy and flouncy and completely over the top. These days the standard bridesmaid dress is ladylike and glamorous and in general can be worn on numerous occasions.
The French work out how much to spend on a piece of clothing based on the number times they’ll wear it. So for a pair of jeans that you wear almost everyday you might be willing to pay a couple of hundred pounds. However for a dress you’ll only use once you don’t want to fork out over than £50. Finding a bridesmaid dress for £50 or less is nearly impossible. However, if you can wear the dress more than once, you are prepared to pay more for it.
So, here are three of the most versatile styles of Coast bridesmaid dresses that should tick dozens of boxes.
The Symphony Dress comes in both long and short styles, although you’ll get much more use out of the shorter, knee-length design.
