What is a fit and flare-style bridesmaid dress?
A fit and flare bridesmaid dress is a silhouette that is fitted through the bodice and hips and then flares out gradually towards the hem, creating a flattering hourglass shape. There are a few different fit and flare versions, such as the mermaid-style bridesmaid dress and the classic trumpet dress. Satin fit and flare bridesmaid dresses are popular due to their ease of movement while maintaining a feminine and elegant look.
How do you accessorize fit and flare bridesmaid dresses?
When accessorizing mermaid bridesmaid dresses, accentuate the sleek silhouette with minimal yet sophisticated accessories, such as delicate sparkling stud earrings or a delicate necklace. Opt for elegant hairstyles like sleek ponytails or polished chignons, and choose shoes like nude heels or strappy sandals to elongate the legs and highlight the dress's unique shape. Another popular option is a satin fit and flare bridesmaid dress. When styling these, focus on enhancing the luxurious texture of the fabric with statement earrings such as chandelier or tear-drop earrings. Complement the polished satin with classic hairstyles like sleek updos or soft waves, and select shoes that match the formality, such as strappy heels or flats.
