Maternity Bridesmaid Dresses

Allioop817

Hi! Two of my bridesmaids will be 8 months pregnant at my wedding.  Anyone know of a good brand/designer for dresses that offers cute maternity styles?  Most of the ones I have found are out-dated and look old!  I still want something fun and unique for the pregnant girls.

Alfred Angelo has a few great options for pregnant BMs:

These can come in a bunch of different colors and hopefully they'll find something they love and are comfortable in. Good luck!

Look for dresses with empire waists, and either a wide A-line or flowing shape.  They do not have to be labeled "maternity."

Consider letting your bridesmaids each pick their own style dress, as well.  With the same designer/color/fabric, they will coordinate even if they're not the same style.  That way your other bridesmaids can wear something more fitted if they choose.

Order as late as possible.

(PS, I Alfred Angelo.)

Thanks! These are all great options.  I will look at Alfred Angelo and also maybe do the option where they can order their own style like empire waist.

Just wanted to throw in my 0.02 as I've been in this situation. A BM was due two weeks after our wedding. I told them a color and let her pick her own dress in that length and color. It worked out really well. She could wait later to buy (I think she bought it three weeks prior) as it wasn't technically a BM dress. It also ensured she was in something she felt comfortable in. That may be the best route to go. Even if your other BMs are in matching dresses, no one will blink an eye or find it odd to have noticeably pregnant BMs in different dresses.

One of my BM's will be 8 months pregnant.  She picked a knee length, empire waist jersey dress from Davids bridal (one of their maternity appropriate dresses).  It has a v-neck neckline and all my other BM's will be in v-neck satin dresses of a similar length, in the same colour.  It should look cohesive and everyone seemed happy.

same situation here- there were some really cute Bill Levkoffs so she was able to find a dress she liked!
