Help!!!!! Dusty purple bridesmaid dresses

If the colour is perfect and the quality is good, what is it that doesn't suit the bridesmaid ? It sounds as though you are on the right track, but possibly need to find a different design, with the same company.

I purchased all of my dresses from this site justthebeginnings.com. My dresses were 79.00.

Your dresses sound exactly the same as what I'm looking for for my bridesmaids, I love the colour 'smashing'. By dessy but their dresses are way out of my price range. I've found a dressmaker who will make me the dresses I want for £100 each. I'm not 100 percent on the idea though as I'm worried they won't be up to scratch but I'm really struggling to find what I want on the highstreet.

Could you post a pic of your dress? How much was it??

I dont know if these are 'dusty' enough. What about the same colour but different dress styles? I think you'll struggle to get all BM's to feel comfortable in the same dress.

Hi, i also loved the colour smashing by dessy and wanted those for my bridesmaids. It depends on how long you have until your wedding, but i have got both my dessy dresses brand new on ebay from america, style 2832 in smashing. I trawled ebay everyday and it has taken a good few months to find the ones i wanted in the sizes i wanted but ended up getting both the dress including post + taxes for approx £120, i was quoted between £160 -£202 per dress when i contacted shops. If you have got plenty of time and those are the dresses you want i think its worth searching ebay every day

I also managed to get brand new cravats and pocket handkerchiefs for the men on ebay at a fraction of the cost!

I love eBay!! I'm on there everyday, no luck so far, I need high neck or one shoulder dresses at least as one of my bm's has huge boobs! I've seen loads of dresses but none in the smashing colour, I will keep trying. I get married in September so am starting to panic slightly!!

Hi Futureclayton and emmareynolds21

have you had any luck with dresses, i have found these on preloved, they are concord rather than smashing but is still a nice colour

I went for it in the end and the rest will be here Friday. I'm having the awkward one altered to fit her as she eventually told me that she over estimated her measurements as she thought it would hide her stomach!

This is the dress but obviously not in the right colour.........

They were £50 each in custom made sizes or £40 if you happened to be a standard size.

The colour that they made them in is this chart............. No 10

Those dreses are lovely and the colour is really nice, they were a bargain !! one more job sorted xx

Hi,

i've not got any further in my search. I'm actually really really stressed about it all!! I'm having a vintage feel to my day so although them concord colour dresses are lovely they just don't fit in, I've seen them on preloved and liked them too. (Not big enough for one of my bm's either). I'm actually thinking of changing my colour to dusky pink, it seems more popular so I make have a better chance if finding something.

Sooooooo stressed its untrue!!!!

Is that quite similar with this one
