The thing about following fashion trends is that they eventually go out of style. A lot of brides worry that their dresses will be unfashionable when they look back on their photos. We hate to be the bearers of bad news, but that’s inevitable. Fashion and style change over time, so something you love now might be cringe-worthy in the future. It’s just the way of the world.
For example, if we were looking at this bridesmaid group photo ten to twenty years ago, many of us would think these dresses were super cute. Now, of course, they look dated and cheesy. But we can tell from the looks on these women’s faces that they were totally feeling themselves in those dresses. If you feel great about your outfit in the moment, that’s all that matters.
Duck Dynasty Says “I Do”
Every couple has a right to plan their dream wedding the way they want to. But that won’t stop other people from making fun of their dream wedding. This couple decided to think outside the box by planning an all-camo wedding. We wish they hadn’t. Unless they’re getting married out in the middle of the woods during hunting season, there’s absolutely no reason to make your loved ones wear camouflage formalwear.
Everything about this wedding shot is absolutely wild. The bridesmaids and groomsmen are wearing matching dresses and vests, and the bride and groom are wearing white camo. We didn’t even know that was a thing. The bright blaze-orange tie worn by the groomsman on the left is a nice, classy touch.
Barbie's Dream Wedding
We love a color-coordinated wedding as much as the next person. This bride and groom planned their color coordination down to the smallest detail. It may not be to everyone’s taste, but we have to admit that it was thought out very well. The bride was obviously a huge fan of bright pink. How can we tell? Well, it’s everywhere.
Her bridesmaids are wearing questionably bright pink dresses, which perfectly match the groomsmen’s bowties. On top of that, there are matching boutonnieres, bouquets, and corsages. We know that Barbie pink is having a moment, but this shade of pink is way too overwhelming. Just a friendly reminder that you can throw other colors into your wedding day palette, folks.
Crimping My Style
These bridesmaid dresses were a very unfortunate choice. We’ve cut out their faces to protect their anonymity and dignity. Whoever designed this dress did a great disservice to the world of wedding attire. There’s no way anyone could look good in a dress like this. First things first. Let’s address the horrendous elephant in the room.
The crimping on those skirts is absolutely awful. Perhaps the designer thought it brought a creative edge to the dress design. If that’s the case, they need to go back to fashion school. The dresses look like walking wedding cakes made of fabric instead of icing. Plus, those ruched sleeves would make anyone’s shoulders look top-heavy, no matter how petite they were.
Only the Best for Marquess
The wedding of a marquess is always a big deal. Charles Paget, Marquess of Anglesey, married Lady Marjorie Manners in 1911, and it was a most illustrious affair. There’s no doubt that they spent top dollar for everything, including the bridesmaid dresses. But money can’t buy everything, especially style.
Maybe it was the style of the time, but these dresses look pretty frumpy by today’s standards. They look more like mother-of-the-bride dresses rather than bridesmaid dresses. (No offense to all the mothers out there). We have so many questions about those giant arm muffs. Is that what fancy people used instead of bouquets back in the day?
