The way I see it, although the bride can compel a person to wear that outfit for one specific event, the person who wears the dress to the wedding owns the dress and may wear it for whatever else they choose, regardless if it's before or after the wedding.
As long as there are no stains, and it's clean for the wedding, any bridesmaid dress I own is fair game at any time (should I have an occasion to wear it).
