Dressing the bridesmaids

The intervals I take to write blogs surprise me none the less, am glad to do so. One thing that am glad most brides no longer like for maids fabrics is the bridal satin. There was a time nearly almost all weddings in Nairobi was about bridesmaids wearing bridal satin. It was great when it lasted but many people can no longer stand it. The 1st thing many people say nowadays for maids dresses that they would do any fabric but bridal satin.

The goodnews is; not all satin is boring, there are great options to work with on satin for bridesmaids dresses such as valentino satin, charmeuse, duchess, slipper, stretch satin etc. What's important is for the design required to be identified. Then comes the decision on what type of fabric is preferred whether light, medium or heavy. 

Bridesmaids options aren't limited to satin fabrics. African prints are also good choices for bridesmaids dresses such as good quality materials from west african countries are ideal to use.

Another option that is old fashion with weddings locally are use of tafetta fabric, which is very rare to find on bridesmaids today. Does it end with that. Fortunately, NO. Alot of exiting options are available a few amongst them being: chiffon, linen, cotton and silk. Whatever the preffered option, you never go wrong with a good quality bridesmaids dresses' fabric.
