Help me pick a bridesmaid dress

I am in a wedding in May and all we know so far is the color the bride wants. This girl is so laid back it drives me crazy!!!

So anyway, I need ideas....the color she chose is the blue from "Tiffany's Iconic Blue Box" and she's going for the formal cocktail look....also 3 of the girls are heavy set (size 16+) so we need to keep this in mind as well....

So with that all said, anyone have any ideas???

All I have to say is that if some of the girls are large (and especially if they have large chests) you might want to stay away from strapless, they can be uncomfortable for ladies that are big on top.

I like that color! It's a very nice gown that doesn't scream bridesmaid!

If some of the girls are plus size, I'd try to find something with a v neck or a cross with a thick strap so everyone can wear a comfortable bra. - Also, it will probably be beneficial to go with something of high quality so the material and fit are better overall -

That is a hard color - I'm going to do some research Chat Icon

Another alternative is do find a designer who makes multiple gowns in the same fabric and have each girl pick the gown that best suits their body type -

I agree.....I think strapless can look nice on everybody, but the ability to wear a real supportive bra would be heaven to me! What about picking the fabric a nd having the dresses made???
