Terracotta Bridesmaid Dresses

One of the most popular shade trends of 2023 will be rich, vibrant terracotta shades. Like many shades within the orange family, a terracotta colour wedding radiates warmth and happiness. Additionally, it exudes sentiments of nurture and excitement and communicates joy, energy and enjoyment – the exact vibes you need for a wedding. In 2023, terracotta will be widely used because people are getting more in tune with nature and are loving neutral tones that are naturally found in the earth – think the terracotta shades of the desert. This shade is most popular in the autumn months due to its rich warmth that is mirrored in the leaves at this time of year. 

Terracotta pairs well with a number of different shades. A classic combination is with other neutral tones such as beige, browns and ivory to create a natural, rustic look. If you are looking for a more feminine, romantic feel, pair the shade with a pale blush pink shade. 

Of all the long terracotta color satin bridesmaid dresses available on the Cetims website, the Attie dress shows off the colour perfectly. The dress has a mermaid-shape skirt that highlights your bridesmaids' curves, while the off-the-shoulder, flowing style is flirtatious and feminine. For outdoor weddings, this light design is ideal since it will allow the dress to flow beautifully in the mild wind. Consider complementing this style with cascading bouquets that flow with the material.  

Black Color Dresses

Black bridesmaid dresses are understated, classy and elegant. It should go without saying that black is timeless and flattering for everyone. However, black has traditionally not been a popular wedding colour, until recent years when it has own dramatically in popularity. One of the best things about your bridesmaids and wedding theme being black is that it is very simple to match the shades across your décor and dresses as black is generally universally the same, compared to other colours that may have slightly different undertones. This is especially helpful if you are considering mix and match bridesmaid dresses as it means dresses can be bought from different shops and still match perfectly. Additionally, black bridesmaid dresses can be worn again by your bridesmaids for formal black-tie events, so that they do not go to waste.

Due to its depth of tone, it is slimming in nature meaning that your bridesmaids will feel confident when wearing them.
