To all of you who said the pink dresses didn't look like a proper bridesmaid's dress you're right, they weren't! The girls wore silk Pazzi dresses from Calypso in three different shades of hot pink. They could be worn with flats (ceremony in a field!), had cute pockets, could definitely be worn again, and were cheap — on special for $89 when we bought them. One of the girls bought a second dress, in green, for a trip to Spain — and then wore the pink one to an anniversary brunch with her husband a few weeks ago.
And funnily enough two girls wore Pazzi dresses to the wedding — one blue, one orange. They were totally mortified but I thought it was great! I bought an extra dress just in case (of what I don't know) and might wear it to a wedding in Hilton Head next weekend. So easy!
pretty! what a great idea.
I love these. “Proper” bridesmaid dresses suck!
Calypso is the perfect name for this dress 🙂
They don’t look like “proper” bridesmaid dresses. THANK GOODNESS! So cute. And really, in this day and age when anything goes for the bride’s dress, is there really a set standard for a bridesmaid dress?
It’s refreshing as a bridesmaid to be able to wear a dress that you can wear proper underwear with (no strapless bras or tummy flatteners in site!). I like to look pretty as a bridesmaid (well, maybe all the time!) but also be comfortable enough to do my bridesmaid duties and to dance.
