bridesmaids dresses - mix and match styles

Hello fellow brides! 

Because my bridesmaids are all quite different sizes and proportions, I'd really like to let them choose their own styles, but I'd like to have somewhat of a cohesive look.

Any advice for designers I could look into where I could choose a fabric and color and give them options of styles to choose from?  Ideally, they should be available nationally because my ladies are all over and I'd like them to be able to try them on if they want.  And I'd like to keep the price under about $250...

Thanks!

    David's Bridal has a lot of inexpensive BM dresses, and the styles are available in a lot of colors.

    You could pick which color you want them to wear, and then they can pick a style of dress that's available in that color.

    You can do this with pretty much every designer: Alfred Angelo, Mori Lee, Eden Maids, etc.  This question gets asked at least once a week.

    We went with DB since I had BM's all over the place. That was the easiest thing to do and I think the dresses looked great.

    I think I also answered you on Attire.

    Check out Alfred Angelo.  My 5 BMs each got a different style dress in the same color/fabric/length.  Short dresses were around $140-170, I think.

    I didn't realize your wedding wasn't until October.  Don't pick things now because designs are being disconinued and new ones are being added.  I've read several posts about "help, DB is discontinuing my BM dresses!" when half ot the BMs have already ordered, and the other half haven't.

      I'm just letting my BMs choose a black dress they like. All of my BMs have very different sizes and like different styles. I know people will disagree with me, but I don't think I could find a designer that would have similar dresses that would look good on everyone. I really think people look better when they feel good. Giving my BMs their choice of a few dresses wasn't going to work for me (or them).
