Multiway Bridesmaids Dresses

It’s the turn of the Bridesmaids… With your summer wedding approaching, it’s time to gather your bridal party and get the girls dressed up! Our multiway dresses by Jacqueline Louise are perfect to make sure all your girls can feel confident and comfortable.

Here are our top 5 favourite ways to style the multiway dresses. Let us know your favourite…

Cross-Back Cap Sleeves

This great for any of your bridesmaids that wants a more covered look, particularly if they want to cover the arms. It is also one of the easiest ones to recreate.

One-Shoulder

This is one of our personal fav at Vicki’s Bridal Boutique. Not only is this a good option for most body shapes, but also we are obsessed with the beautiful plate back detail. Which is stunning as an open back but also works just as well with the Bardot top underneath for more coverage.

Cross-Back Tank

This is created the same way as the Batwing, just simply gathering the fabric up onto the shoulder. To add a little detail, you could always add a twist in the front rather than just the wrap round.

The Y-Neck

This is a beautiful shape with a gorgeous cross detail back that we just love! Again, you can play around with creating a knot at the front and using the bardot top for more coverage.

Cap Sleeves

This is perfect if you have a mix of ages, as it's not too grown up for your younger bridesmaids with the pretty twist on the shoulders. But also shows off the older girls figures.

The multiway dresses are so much fun. Once you have picked up your dresses, we recommend getting all your girls together for an evening of playing around with different styles - there are sooo many out there. So if you find one you love, share it with us because we would love to see them ... and steal the idea! 😉

Freda Bennet Collection

We are kicking March 2024 off with some gorgeous new additions to our Freda Bennet Collection here at Vicki’s Bridal Boutique. And we think you are going to love them. We have some really exciting new fabrics and shapes, including some new versions of the wedding dresses we already love. As well as some dresses that we have worked with Freda to bespoke to make them perfect for our Vicki’s Bride.

So here is the run-down of the class of 2024:

Linen aline wedding dress with square neckline

Kick-starting with Kallie: She is a dress that we are really excited about not only because of the shape of her but also because of the linen fabric, yep that's right a linen wedding dress. Kallie by Freda Bennet has a gorgeous square neckline with a mirrored low square back, finished with flat bow detail, perfect if you just want to dip your toes into the bridal bow trend. She is fitted down into the hip and softly flows into a soft A-line. A real timeless modern classic.

Next up, Teigan: - We listened and delivered. We had lots of feedback that brides loved the fabric of Milan but wanted a smaller skirt. So we knew that when the time came for buying from Freda this year, this was top of our shopping list. Teigan is a gorgeous v-neck with a beautiful single layer wrap skirt in that exclusive Freda Bennet fabric we love so much. And of course not forgetting the all important pocket detail. The wide waist band makes her the perfect style to enhance any figure.

Now, Raine: She is perfect if you are looking a sleek and sexy bridal look. With a stunning low square back bodice and flared skirt with seam detail, which skims the feminine form in all the right places. The high neckline adds a little modesty, she just screams timeless elegance. With the gorgeous simplicity of Raine, she perfect for accessorising to create your own bridal style.

Square neck aline wedding dress with frill detail

Ffion is a personal favourite of mine, oozing playfulness and femininity. We worked with lovely Jane and Christine from Freda to put our Vicki’s stamp on this beautiful bridal gown, changing the fabric to a soft organza. This stunning A-line with that gorgeous square neckline that we love, teamed with a soft ruffle on the shoulder that continues down into the v-back, is just perfect for a bride that wants to dance her way through a fun filled wedding day.

pleated bardou aline wedding dress with 3D flower detail

Let's talk Romily: She really is bringing two big trends for this 2024 wedding season together, teaming the super flatting pleated detail across the bust of a Bardot top, with beautiful silk 3D flowers on the sleeves. Adding a little playfulness to the classic satin Bardot A-line bridal gown that we know and love. Oh! And let's not forget ... she has pockets!

Strapless silk wedding dress with fitted silhouette

Nessa is something a little special as our first beautiful silk organza gown to join our bridal collection at Vicki’s Bridal Boutique. She has a wideband across the bust, which continues into a soft tie down the back and the dress, decorated with floral details. Just like Brady, she has that stunning fitted silhouette underdress and soft a-line created by the silk organza layer. Giving you the best of both worlds.

And last but not least, Berkeley: After having so much love for the square neckline and Marla. When we saw Berkeley we knew she was coming home with us. She is a simple and elegant wedding gown, perfect for the minimalist bride. The skirt is a trumpet style skirt, fitting over the hips and flaring out with a puddle train, which is adorned with buttons all the way down. The crêpe material is smooth and comfortable, but with the light boning, the dress will leave you feeling secure on your wedding day. Again, the perfect dress for adding your own bridal style too.

"Freda Bennet focuses on designing for real women, weaving together feminity with strength and understanding each bride’s desire to find the balance between timeless and trendy." by Jane and Christen
