My bridesmaid dresses arrived! I ordered them online through an Etsy seller overseas. Even though she has good reviews it still made me nervous... but they look great and they all fit! And the price was much more reasonable ($125/dress) than nearly identical chiffon dresses through places like J Crew. Since my ladies are all in grad school or are young professionals it was perfect. She even customized a design for us and put in lace-up backs since we were nervous about the fit being right.

Here's my lovely MOH modeling hers (it's a bit wrinkled from being mailed):





ETA: In these pictures they look ombre but they're not. It's just my phone camera. The color on the bodice is more true to the real color, which is a sort of muted lavender.

FYI The brides dress was vintage. She bought it from a woman selling her moms gown circa 1954. You can't see it here but it's tea length.

As the mom of daughters who have bridesmaided so many, many times, I'd like to give a thumbs up to these short gowns that can be worn again!

I'm going to be a bridesmaid next year and my bride wants me to buy a chiffon (or similarly flowing fabric) long gown in a salmon color. Any neckline except sweetheart. I wish she would just pick a dress instead of giving us an option that's not really an option. Also, I might just die wearing a floor length dress in Louisiana in late March
