Bridesmaids: How likely are you to wear your dress again?
Filed under: Fashion, After the 'I Do's', Polls
We've been involved in about a million weddings, and out of all of them, and nearly every bride we've known has selected her bridesmaids' dresses saying, "I totally think my bridesmaids will be able to wear this again -- don't you?"Truth be told, many of these dresses were quite beautiful, but did we think the bridesmaids were going to keep them at the front of their closets and wear them at the very next opportunity? Nope, not likely.
This makes us wonder -- how much do bridesmaids really care about the "post-wedding wearability" of their dresses? And if that's something that's important, what factors are most important? Color? Style? Formality? Or should brides worry more about what dress fits in best with their wedding and not worry about whether the bridesmaids will wear it again?

"Other" - not only does the style/color of the dress matter, the taste and lifestyle of the bridesmaid does as well. Some women hate dresses/skirts altogether and would only wear a dress at a wedding they were in.
