Summer Wedding Tips: The Perfect Fabric For Bridesmaid Dresses

CICINIA SUMMER WEDDING

Summer Wedding

Late summer weddings are some of the most beautiful and intimate weddings. The warm weather, lush gardens, and abundance of flowers make the perfect backdrop for a gorgeous affair with family and friends. If you're a bride-to-be who is anticipating a summer wedding in the near future, you probably have a lot on your mind-from caterers and photographers to venues and honeymoon destinations. However, if you have bridesmaids, one thing that likely weighs heavy on your mind is what fabric is best for their dresses. Well, take it easy because here are the five fashionable and perfect fabric options for your bridesmaid's dresses.

Tulle

One fabric often used for bridesmaid dresses is tulle, which is romantic and elegant and very flattering on all body shapes and sizes.

So what is tulle fabric exactly? It's a fine mesh netting that looks like a web or net. It is also a lightweight, sheer fabric that has been used for centuries in wedding dresses. The material is made from fine silk, nylon, or rayon threading, which creates a beautiful and elegant look when worn.

There are many reasons why you should choose tulle as the material for your bridesmaid gowns. For one thing, it's comfortable to wear on hot summer days. It's also very inexpensive, especially compared to other fabrics such as silk or satin. Tulle also allows air to flow through the outfit easily, so your bridesmaids won't end up sweating and feeling uncomfortable during your special day.

One of the best reasons to choose this fabric for your bridesmaids' dresses is versatility. You can use it in many different ways depending on what style of dress you're going with. For example, if you want a classic look, you can have all of your bridesmaids in matching skirts with tulle overlays at the bottom and sleeves. Or maybe you'd like to go with something more modern by having each of them wear a long dress. If your wedding party is a little more daring, consider having them wear a knee-length instead!

You might even want to get creative with color! One great thing about tulle is that it comes in many different colors (and even patterns). For instance, if your color scheme consists mainly of pastel shades like pink or blue, go ahead and get some bright yellow tulle for an unexpected pop of color. Or perhaps two colors really stand out from each other so well - such as red vs. deep purple - then try using those as accents!

Lastly, tulle is an easy-maintenance and affordable option. It's easy to clean - just hand wash in cold water and hang dry or tumble dry low heat. It also wears well over time, so don't worry about replacing dresses every year or two as you do with cotton fabrics.

Chiffon

Chiffon is known as a "sheer" fabric. It's usually made from silk, nylon, or polyester and has a very lightweight feel. Because chiffon is such a lightweight material, it makes beautiful bridesmaid dresses during the summer months.

Just like tulle, chiffon is also a very versatile material. It can be manipulated to create different styles and looks. Whether you want a simple, straight dress, or you want something that's flowing with lots of movement, chiffon can accommodate your needs.

If you are looking for a dress with more of a "flowing" look, consider adding ruffles to create movement and flow. You can also add beading to the neckline and shoulders to help accentuate the style of the dress. And since chiffon bridesmaid dresses make a gorgeous flowing dress, it is perfect for greenery and outdoor wedding location.

Also, you can find it in just about any color or shade, so you don't have to worry about finding matching colors for your bridal party unless they all want the same color of dresses (in which case, chiffon most likely has your color).

Lace

Lace is a classic wedding fabric that can be used in decor, veils, wedding gowns, bridesmaid dresses, and more. The delicate fabric comes in several varieties, including cotton, silk, and synthetic lace.

While this feminine material has been around for years, it's recently made a comeback in the bridal world and is now one of the most popular wedding fabrics. There are several ways to incorporate lace into your bridesmaid dresses. If you want the lace to stand out, consider choosing a light-colored dress with lace sleeves or an overlay. If you want something more subdued, opt for a dress that incorporates lace throughout or for the trim. No matter where you incorporate lace, it's sure to have an elegant effect on your wedding day.

Lace is also an excellent fabric for the bride who wants to give her bridesmaids a little bit of freedom when choosing their dresses because it comes in a huge range of styles, so each member of the bridal party can choose a lace dress that complements their personal preferences.

Another reason to love lace is its texture gives an extra feminine feel, and it photographs beautifully. You want to make sure your bridesmaids feel comfortable in what they are wearing. Most of all, you want them to look great. And you want the perfect fabric for their dresses.

Emulation Silk

Emulation silk is a breathable fabric that can be lightweight or thick, depending on your preference. Although it might sound like silk, emulation silk is actually made up of polyester fibers that mimic the look and feel of silk without requiring the same amount of maintenance or care. For example, emulation silk doesn't need to be dry-cleaned as real silk does; you can wash it in cold water and hang it to dry without any problems.

If there's a chance that rain may interfere with your wedding day - or if there's any chance of moisture - emulation silk is also good at repelling water droplets. You can wipe off the wet fabric easily without worrying about staining or ruining the look of your bridesmaid dresses.

Sequins

If you want a unique style of fabric, you can consider sequins. Sequins are tiny metallic discs that are sewn onto a base fabric. They come in different sizes and shapes and can be arranged in various patterns. Sequins fabric is a bit more expensive, but it's worth it for the glam factor. If you're looking for something that's less reflective and more muted, try satin chiffon, which is lighter and more relaxed than sequins.

If you have decided to go with sequins fabric for your bridesmaid dresses, here are some tips that can help you in choosing a perfect dress:

Choose colors according to the season

You might want to go with lighter colors like pastels and soft colors for a summer wedding. Also, don't forget to add matching accessories like jewelry to the bridesmaid's dresses.

In fact, you can wear any jewelry with sequins dresses; just make sure that it matches your dress. For example, if you are wearing a black dress with sequin embellishments, then go for silver or gold jewelry. However, if your dress has floral designs on it, match the jewelry with the color of the flowers or the pattern of the gown.

The cut of the dress matters

The cut of the dress is equally important as the color and fabric of the dress. A wrong choice in this regard can ruin your sequin bridesmaid dresses completely. So make sure that you choose a flattering cut that goes well with all body shapes and sizes of your bridesmaids.

You can also try different necklines

You can also try different necklines for your sequin bridesmaid dresses, such as sweetheart neck or V-neckline. Strapless neckline is also popular, but now many alternatives are flattering on every type of figure.

The current trend is the one-shoulder dress which offers more coverage than a strapless dress without sacrificing any glamour. The cold shoulder design is also becoming more widespread. This style has short sleeves that cover part of the shoulders, preventing any unpleasant tan lines.

Conclusion

If you are planning your wedding for summer, you may be considering what fabric is best to use for your bridesmaid dresses. There is no single answer to this question, but keep a few things in mind.

First, consider the weather. Since it is a summer wedding, after all, it's going to be a hot and humid climate. Therefore, look for light fabrics like lightweight chiffon, and the style could be an open-backed dress with a wrap or shawl if you want to use more of this fabric.

Consider the formality of the wedding as well. If it is a more formal affair, consider emulation silk, a smooth and elegant fabric that looks great on any body type.

Finally, consider the style of dress you want your bridesmaids to wear. Although an A-line dress may look good in any fabric, it is more suitable in smooth fabrics that do not reveal panty lines through the material.

Overall, choosing the suitable fabric for your bridesmaid is an easy task with the right information. The key is to know what would feel and look great on your bridesmaids and then take the time to find one that fits those parameters. That way, it will make it much easier to help you decide on a bridesmaid dress fabric that will look fabulous on the aisle and beyond. Check here for more inspirations for choosing bridesmaid dresses according to seasons.
