Brown cocktail dresses - wanweier2014 - 06.12.2013 06:23 What does a bridesmaid actually do, anyway? For those of you wondering the answer to this , the oft-cited origin of the bridesmaid goes back to Medieval Western Europe, as the bridesmaids were recruited to serve as a shield against evil spirits.This may also be the source of the adage, “Thrice a bridesmaid, never a bride,” as three doses of evil spirits is enough to taint one into unmarriageability.This is not an explanation that you should really repeat unless as a factoid score at a dinner party. For the duties of the modern bridesmaid, the bridesmaid dresses of a century of transformation of weddings as a social practice to an industry, we defer to Emily Post, who wrote the book on the subject (more than one, actually.That may seem pretty simple, but the big one is the third, assisting the bride at the reception as requested. That’s a proviso to make an attorney blush, as it unbounded by parameter of any kind. Sometimes that assistance is a specific chore the day of, or some gopher work the week before, or some unstated emotional support that you hope you know when you see. And at some point, favors will be made. Really if you think of it, on the Big Day, the service to the bride the bridesmaids perform is that of decoy, as those that mean harm to the bride—the spurned suitors, evil spirits, process servers—have to figure out which of the ladies in the dresses is the actual bride. Bridesmaids are the Secret Service of the wedding, with dire responsibilities and little reward. Bridesmaids are heroes. With barnyard, backyard, and beach weddings, DIY mania, Pinterest, and blogs, wedding traditions are falling by the wayside. Something changing are bridesmaid dresses. I remember when I was younger seeing an episode of Friends with Rachel in the stereotypical pink, taffeta number, and I assumed that's just what bridesmaids wore. But no matter how many lovely hot wedding dresses are out there, one episode of Say Yes to the Dress: Bridesmaids will tell you that a lot of bridesmaids continue to wear said stereotypes.I've been in ten weddings. I'm no 27 dresses, but I have a decent collection. From full length and formal to cotton and casual, I've worn it. These days the brides that let their bridesmaids choose their own dress gush with pride at being the easy going, cool bride. I'm sure it is certainly their intention to allow their friends to choose a dress that suits their body type and budget, but have you ever tried shopping for a dress after being given requirements to it's color palette, length, and material? It's not easy. Prepare to visit an endless stream of department stores and boutiques on a mission to find a stylish, appropriately priced, perfect dress in a wide array of random colors (think pale pinks, deep blues, mustard yellow, forest greens, lavender, etc.). After scanning racks for every version of a dress in your hue, you'll be ready to buy whatever you can find. Is it really easier to go on a hunt for a mythical dress than just being sent a link to J. Crew or David's Bridal? When I was told to pick out a bridesmaid dress, the bride told me her colors were neutrals, so color descriptions like mahogany, caramel, sepia, and chocolate came up. Basically I was on a search for a brown cocktail dress. This is not a common color for a cocktail dress. Brown boots, brown jackets, brown winter sexy wedding dresses, yes. Brown cocktail dresses? Much more difficult than I imagined. Two of the bridesmaids just went to a wedding store and bought bridesmaid dresses in brown. Because the bridesmaid must find a dress that works a delicate balancing act; a dress that makes her happy, makes the bride happy, fits into the bride's idea of what she wants her to wear, and also somehow looks cohesive with four or five other women. This balance can lean in different directions, like the one bridesmaid who chooses the sexiest, most Vegas-looking dress in the color palette, or the girl whose color looks incredibly different from the other bridesmaids.
