So i went shopping with my maids the other day and it proved to be much harder than imagined. I had a specific style in mind and they didn’t like it. I want them to feel comportable and would never want them to wear something they didn’t feel comfortable in… so then my one maid came out in this —- http://www.billlevkoff.com/style/bridesmaid-dress/526 .. and we all loved it, me included! .. here’s the issue — I want GOLD and, if not gold, a nice champagne… the champage in this dressis SUPER LIGHT … and my dress is ivroy so i don’t want it to be almost the same (and my dress is a straight satin mermaid as well so the dresses kind of give a nod to eachother, which is why i love it, so too light of a color would be a problem).. it also comes in the “taupe”… now, i want gold… all of my DIY stuff is gold. Has anyone ever used Bill Levkoff euro taupe? so you see it as a “golden” color in person? I’m so torn.

LadyRita: They didn’t have any color swatches or other dresses in that color? Taupe is kind of brown.

My daughter had 4 different bridesmaid dress appointments, while looking for gold. The colors presented as gold range from mustard to champage. She ended up with the Dessy Group’s Venetian Gold. They have an extensive website, where you can look at styles that come in whatever color you choose, in both short and long.

This bride said: It does look gold up close, but come out more like a light brown in pictures.
