    So here is a screen shot of 7 dresses I selected from Bari Jay. I want all the girls in the same color scheme, same fabric, and same length, but different styles. These wouldn't be the actual ones, as the website has a few more dual toned ones I'd select for the first dress as well so that the 1st, middle and last girl all have both colors. But the website wouldn't let me change them. Honest opinions?! Flowers will most likely be ivory

    If I'm being honest, it looks a little busy. I would stay away from having 2 totally different color dresses. I would do the different styles but have one main color with the other being an accent color. That's just me though!

    @iKneadu36:  the brown dress with the blue bow is throwing me off, but I like the rest together. I'm not sure why, but that middle one doesn't feel like it goes.

     

    I like the rest though.

    @MissFireFlower:  Yes, that's one that would change for sure, the other style is similar, but the center sash is much thinner and doesn't hang down. Thanks!

    OOoh I think the colors are gorgeous! I think this is a neat idea and could look really nice in pictures. I agree with comments above though, I think having all of those is a lot busy, as some don't seem to go together quite as nicely, like the big bow, and I think the first one looks different because the bottom is so different from the rest...

    I also worry a bit about having the girls in different colors because it could get tricky in the pictures. Will you always have them stand in every-other order? Just a thought! Good luck!

    @ivoryowl:  During the ceremony, and at the head table, they'll be in the every/other order. My end bridesmaid is 6'4" so it's already tricky in pictures!!!

    @iKneadu36:  

    I agree it looks too busy.  I'd either do the same style in different colours or different styles in the same colour.  Not both.

    @iKneadu36:  agree with the pp that the one with the blue bow seens like it doesn't belong. Love otherwise!

    Personally I prefer simple colors for bridesmaids. However as duel colors go, these look pretty good. I acvree tht the middle sress looks a little out of place with it's large sash

    I personally prefer to have them in all one color as opposed to two.  But I think it would be fine to do mix and match here.  I'm sorry I can't stand the dress in the middle, that big purple bow is way too distracting.  I can't even focus on anything else with it there. If it was all brown it would be better.  Same with the last, I'd try to make it all purple.

    I see you said the website wouldn't let you change the mixed colors on those for these photos...so I would just make sure you get each dress in only one color Smile
