Black and White Bridesmaid Dresses: A Perfect Choice

By Danielle Coverdale

Black and white bridesmaid dresses are a perfect touch in a wedding party if the goal is to create a glamorous, unforgettable ensemble. With contrast that is timeless, classic, and appealing, the black and white dresses have the added bonus of being flattering to the figure of any and all bridesmaids.

There is simply no better choice for wedding party attire than those timeless classics, - black and white. Black and white bridesmaid's dresses offer stunning contrast and a perfect color scheme that will compliment any style and augment the wedding dcor, no matter what other colors might be chosen as those two go with anything. Black has the added advantage of being very slimming. A black dress will flatter any figure and black is a color that is stunningly elegant and sexy at the same time. Likewise, white is a perfect color as well, being very fresh, wonderfully regal and those touches of white in the black and white bridesmaid's dresses will compliment any gorgeous bride and her gown.

If the goal of the wedding is elegance, nothing is more elegant than a classic black dress except for a classic black and white dress. The options are unlimited when it comes to dressing a wedding with black and white bridesmaid dresses. Whether the bride and her party choose solid black dresses with a white sash or bodice, or dresses that are all black, or one of those glorious black dress with the white insert panels in the skirt, the contrast will be magnificent. New dresses are always being created which play with the black and white scheme and the results are some simply stunning combinations that really catch the eye, and the selection is varied and vast. Seasonal colors are not a worry when the bride chooses black and white bridesmaid's dresses, as these two colors or any combination of them will always be chic. Black and white is perfect for a winter wedding, particularly so if dresses favor the black color and are made of a material such as satin or velvet. They are ideal for summer weddings as well, even more so if they have more white between the ensemble and just a touch of black. Spring and autumn are also perfect times to wear black and white bridesmaid's dresses, and the bride and groom can highlight the perfectly contrasting colors with dcor in their favorite shades of color because any color looks terrific next to these classics.

Neither black nor white are seasonal colors, so these two colors or a combination thereof are always in style. They are perfect for a winter wedding, particularly if the dresses favor the black color and ideal for a summer wedding if they have more white among the ensemble. Autumn or Spring is also a good time to wear white and black, and the wedding party can highlight the coloring with dcor in a favorite shade of spring green or autumn rust that will compliment the elegant attire. Black dresses are very easy to find, as the "little black dress" is such a necessary part of any well-dressed woman's wardrobe. The inclusion of such a dress in the wedding party means that the bridesmaids will gain a dress that they will actually be able to wear repeatedly because black dresses will never go out of style. Not only are they easy to find, there are so many different styles and patterns from which to choose that the selection is far greater than it would be with a dress of any other color.

Not only do they look awesome in person, but black and white wedding parties photograph beautifully and offer enduring treasures in resulting photographs. Just like the institution of marriage, black and white photography is classic and enduring, a timeless symbol of love that lasts through time. This means that black and white bridesmaid's dresses are going to lend that timeless emotion to the wedding pictures for the bride and groom to treasure as keepsakes from their special day.

No matter the time of year, the budget of the wedding, or the setting, black and white bridesmaid's dresses are ideal wedding party attire to create a gorgeous, timeless, sophisticated, and elegant look for that special day. - 29959
