Really great podcast about us on Daily Dose of Style. Totally appreciate their taking the time to review the site and the specifics about our mix-and-match sizing and length alterations.

Ivory Georgette Bridesmaids Dresses . . . Sweet, Simple and Beautiful

As mentioned in previous posts, we've definitely seen a trend towards bridesmaids going with black bridesmaids dresses, but, as the above photograph demonstrates, going the opposite route and using ivory colored bridesmaids dresses also works beautifully. Our great thanks to our friend Shar for sharing this photo of her bridesmaids in our ivory georgette dresses! We know some folks may be hesitant to go this route out of fear that ivory colored dresses may be too close in color to the bride's traditional white dress, but if the bride should decide to do something a little different, as Shar did with her dress, then we think it's an excellent choice.

Coco Myles' Color Sourcing Solutions

When Krystle first contacted us she asked if we'd send some swatches of our yellow satin and charmeuse colors. Unfortunately, neither of the colors was what Krystle had in mind for her wedding. We did some color sourcing and sent her some samples for her and her bridesmaids to review. Eventually they chose one of the satins we had sent and Krystle Gold Satin was born!

Above is a photo of the bride and her happy bridal party wearing their gorgeous Krystle Gold bridesmaids dresses. The featured dresses are three Blueberry Celebrity Inspired Gowns, a Strapless/ Asymmetrical Skirt, and a Strapless/Straight Skirt. Krystle also wrote us a very nice testimonial which is now featured on the Testimonial section of our site. Nothing makes us happier!

The Vibrancy of Charmeuse

We constantly get questions about which fabric is best for bridesmaids dresses. We send swatches free of charge but we still have customers ask us about the difference between our charmeuse and satin. We tell them that the satin is heavier and a bit more forgiving since it's blended with a touch of Lycra. Our charmeuse is lighter and generally more vibrant in terms of color. We think the above photo demonstrates just how vibrant that color can be (please click on the photo so you can see it in all its glory)! These dresses were all made from our Wine Charmeuse and we think they look incredible. We also love that the photo shows such a large variety of our top and bottom styles, including our Jr. Bridesmaid dress and our Pickup Skirt (which is an incredibly popular bottom style right now).

Our heartfelt thanks to the bride, Karrie, for being kind enough to share the photo with us. Also, hats off to Artisan Photography for taking such a beautiful photo! You can read Karrie's kind words about, and review of, Coco Myles in the Testimonials section of our website.

Coco Myles . . . Pleasing Brides and Their Moms!

Besides the bride, the person you want to please the most if the mother of the bride, or the MOH as she's known in the SMS world. In fact, we can only imagine the how joyful it must be for the mother of the bride to know that her little girl and her bridesmaids are thrilled with how the day turns out. It's particularly heartwarming when we receive a kind note from a mother of the bride letting us know how happy she was with our bridesmaids dresses. We thank Kay for her kind note below and for sending us the above photo -- which again demonstrates how black is the new black!

I know this is late.... but we had the most beautiful wedding thanks to Coco Myles. You were a dream to work with - as we had sizes 4-24 in the wedding. Our dresses were of fine quality and quick service was a plus. I think we had the best wedding in the world - but most moms think that too.

Black is Still the New Black

We're hoping it's not a sign of these dire economic times that we're still finding bridesmaids' dresses in black to be so popular, especially since our dresses are pretty affordable even in this tough climate.

In any event, you can't argue with how wonderfully formal and elegant the black dresses are, especially when they're paired with one of our colorful sashes. We thank Heather and Frances for sending us photos from their weddings. We think these photos also show how well different styles -- in both tops and bottoms -- can work in a bridal party.

Coco Myles in In Touch Magazine

Well, we didn't win The Today Show Wedding Giveaway. Though biased, we thought we had the nicest dress. We're chalking our loss up to being paired with the funky, plaid madras groomsmen pants. One of the nice things about being a finalist is that Bobbi Thomas, the Today Show's stylist, wrote a very nice piece about the Coco Myles Reese dress in In Touch magazine.

Black is the New Black

We're proud of all the different fabric and color combinations we offer. We know that color coordination is usually the bride's biggest concern when it comes to her bridesmaids dresses. That being said, we also think there's something stunningly elegant about black bridesmaids dresses. Our friend, Erin, was generous enough to share the above photo which shows her bridesmaids in all different styles of Coco Myles black satin dresses. Beautiful photo!
