Simple, Sophisticated, Brown & Cream Bridesmaid Dress

I’m quite a fan of using the high street for older bridesmaids dresses, not only are they usually a cheaper option than specifically designed bridesmaids dresses from wedding retailers, but they also tend to be more ‘on trend’ in terms of cut and colour, and since most retailers have an accessories section, they too will be more on trend and you can get the whole look in one shop.  Your bridesmaid will more than likely be happy to wear the dress again meaning they can get good wear value out of it if they are buying it themselves and that of course makes it more eco-friendly. 

Coast have a beautiful selection of occasion dresses that come in sumptuous fabrics and I have featured their designs before.  This Fantasia dress in porcini with cream bow detail is perfect for a sophisticated brown and cream colour scheme, but it also comes in scarlet which would look stunning for a Christmas wedding.  It comes with detachable straps and costs £125.
