Bridesmaid Dresses with Sparkle: How to Nail the Glam Without Outshining the Bride
When it comes to choosing the perfect bridesmaid dress, one question always comes up: Can you wear sparkle? The answer is yes! Sequins, beading, and metallic fabrics are trending and can add just the right touch of glamour without going over the top. The secret lies in finding the perfect balance—shining gracefully without stealing the spotlight from the star of the day: the bride.

That’s why the dress should radiate elegance and sophistication, always respecting the wedding’s style and, of course, the bride’s vision.How to Wear Sparkle Without Overdoing It
