It’s not just you that wants to look their best on your wedding day, your best friends will too! So instead of sticking them in some ill-fitting matching strapless monstrosities. why not give them something with a bit more style?!
You could have a brides-dude!

Great Ideas! I always thought a color and let them pick different dresses. …
Loving the wings. Perhaps older bridesmaids would enjoy wearing them too?
I am only having brides-dudes! I’m not close to any girls, all my best buds are guys so that’s what I’m going with. I can’t wait to dress them.
You have picked some lovely ideas for bridesmaids though. My faves are the same colour theme but different style dresses.
Xxx
So many great ideas! I love inspiration, thank you so much.
I’d advise against imposing a certain shape of dress to bridesmaids who have very different bodies. OK, it’s YOUR wedding and not theirs, but I think it would be best for everyone if they’re at ease with what they’re wearing! I’d hate having to dress my pear-shaped body (an my bottom!)in a squeezy 20s style dress, and though I’d do it anyway to please the bride, I’d feel quite uncomfortable.
