Chiffon Bridesmaid Dresses

Introducing a new regular column for All Things Chic  . . . BRIDAL CHIC with Cita!

Gone are the days of universally unflattering satin bridesmaid dresses, and in their place are lovely chiffon gowns that gracefully cover up all our little flaws.

Thank goodness.
Isn’t it amazing how compared to such fresh and modern chiffon gowns, even the satin gowns worn so proudly just last summer seem hopelessly out of date this season?

Satin is relentlessly unforgiving of a little extra cushioning. But chiffon truly flatters almost every figure.
Chiffon gowns don’t just cover up our flaws, though. The fabric also doesn’t wrinkle the way satin does. Somehow wrinkles have a way of making even the most elegant dress look dreadful.
So if you’re choosing bridesmaid dresses for the ladies you’ve asked to stand up with you on the most important day of your life… choose chiffon. They’ll feel beautiful and confident, and your wedding pictures will look stunning, no matter the dress size of your bridal party.
