Happy New Year folks! We’re pumped to be kicking off 2018 with the first of our ‘Best of’ series, rounding up some of the most popular bridesmaid looks for the year that was.
Top picks championed individual styles with fashion forward designs, sure to be loved and worn beyond the big day. We saw plenty of mixed prints, colour blocking and complimentary tones as well as embellishments like sequins, pleats and plenty of lace.
We loved the variety of bridesmaid styles we saw in 2017 and could easily have included loads more images! For more inspiration, be sure to pop over to Pinterest.
