So this Saturday I am going with my bridesmaids to pick out there dress. They all have different shape bodies. One is pear shape: small breast but she has wide hips n big butt. 3 of them are hourglass figures, and the other one is skinny but she’s square dsnt have much of a curve in her waist. I dnt want them to be uncomfortable when they try on dress. Thinking oh it looks good on her n not me. So do any of u have any ideas of dress styles that will look nice on every girl?? I would appreciate any suggestions! 🙂

Let them each choose their own dress. Pick the color/length you want and have them all in different dresses.

@bride_meli_23: Pick one color or shade (or even just a palatte of colors) and then tell them to pick their favorite dress.

Same color dress in different styles:
Same dress but different shades:

I just posted something similar a day or two ago. My bridesmaids body types are very different from one another. Multiple dresses were tried on everyone. I think they each tried on 6-8 dresses in chiffon fabric. I ended up having to let them each have different dresses but same color.

you can try convertible dresses.
We have a debate over the dresses with my bridesmaids and we finally and happily ended with convertible dresses with a chiffon overlay skirt.
I have 6 bridesmaids and they are all wearing different colors but nothing too bright all should compliment each other. They have different body types too
I bought mine from etsy and its more affordable than branded ones and the quality is very very similar this I can attest because I have the dresses with me already
you can check them out here

Goodluck fellow brides!
