The Best Bachelorette Party Dresses for Brides-To-Be

 In addition to the main wedding event - and the wedding dress that goes with it -- brides-to-be often find themselves needing a whole slew of dresses for the events leading up to the big day.  A few days ago we created shared ideas for the best dresses for brides to wear to their bridal shower, and looks for the rehearsal dinner today we're tackling the best bachelorette party dresses for brides to be.

Bachelorette parties are a fun time to celebrate the bride, let your hair down, and have your closest friends and bridesmaids out on the town for a little fun and bonding time. Whether you're going on a big weekend full of events, or a semi-low-key event at a local bar or restaurant, it's a nice chance to wear fun dresses, jumpsuits, and outfits.  

Your bachelorette party is a chance to heartily celebrate your closest friendships, look forward to your wedding day with your closest friends, and make some unforgettable memories. We've made it easier than ever to find a dress by checking out some of our favorite stores for bachelorette dresses and featuring them all in one spot. Here are more than 60 looks we feel would be perfect to wear to your bachelorette.

Bachelorette Party Outfits and Dresses

Body-conscious, thigh-high, tight, short, and flashy--these are not the usual dresses we recommend for weddings, but today's focus is the bachelorette party, so it's ok to lose some of the tame styles we usually recommend and find a fun party dress!

What Should a Bride Wear For Her Bachelorette Party?

While there's no formal dress code for bachelorette parties, As you can see from the dresses and outfits we've picked above, in general, we think the bachelorette party attire is the perfect time to break out all the fun dresses that we usually don't recommend wedding guest attire and bridesmaid dresses. We love a little white dress for the bride-to-be, but that's far from being the only option. In general, it's the perfect chance to wear more daring styles, take fashion risks, and express your personal style. Shorter hemlines, flashy sequined dresses, embellishments,  and just anything that fits the theme of your style and your the vibe of the part itself certainly won't be out of place at a bachelorette party.

Attire Ideas for Themed Bachelorette Parties

Often bachelorette parties will have a theme, and sometimes the invited guests will be asked to join in. If you're having a weekend getaway So for instance, we've seen bachelorette parties where the bride wears a white dress, and the guest is asked to wear black dresses or outfits to help the bride stand out. We've also seen the opposite approach where all the guests wear white and take on the town challenging everyone they meet to figure out which one is the bride. We've heard of prom-themed bachelortte parties, and bachelorette parties where everyone wears a old wedding dressborrowed from a relative or from a thift store.  Here are just a few ideas based on some of the themes we've seen in the past.

Bachelorette Outfit Ideas

Parker 'Serena' Beaded Silk Sheath Dress / Link Earrings / Disco Stud Bracelet   / Franchi  La Sera Daniella Clutch   / Demario Pump from Enzo Angelini

We thought this look was ideal for a bride to wear because of that white background combined with silver and the silk and beading - it's a little bit elegant and a little bit flashy at the same time. I particularly like how the sleeve keeps the short hemline from being too over the top.
