Looking for Raspberry colour bridesmaid dresses!!

Just wondered if any of you girlies could suggest/show me pics of dresses in a kind of raspberry / maroony colour. I dont really want to spend a fortune and am looking for something hopefully that could be worn again, and a bit modern in style

all suggestions most welcome xxx

bit confused as raspberry is nothing like maroon (which is red with brown in) - are you open to both?

this is a raspberry colour (pay no attention to the boring shift dress):

oo

oo oo!

Hi Amy

thnaks for replying .. i do pfrefer the more raspberry colour but i could get away with maroon - i just dont want a proper red colour (if that makes any sense) that last dress is nice, do you know where its from/?

thanks

it's Karen Millen, OK will keep looking - what kind of theme do you have

i.e. is it quite modern or more classic or kitsch or vintage - the cut of the dress should tie in in my opinion

actaully, i am an asian bride ... im having a civil ceremony in the morning where im wearing an eglish wedding dress, gold in colour, fitted at the top then falls into a fishtail style at the bottom. My indian outfit for later in the day, is raspberry coloured, with some maroon in it as well as gold and diamante enbriodery work on it ...

i think i'd prefer for the to have more of a cocktail length dress

hope that helps xx

have you considered that if your indian outfit is raspberry it might look odd if the BM dresses aren't an exact colour match?

my cousin got married in india and her flower girl outfits are gorgeous
she'd kill me if she knew but:



I'm off to India next week I'll keep my eyes peeled for inspiration, maybe post your dresses if you can? xx

I'm looking for raspberry BM dresses at the moment...the only places on the high street i've found with any at the moment are Coast, Karen Millen and BHS. Good luck with your search!

I am having these, much nicer in real life x

hi hun,

my bridesmaid tried raspberry coloured taffeta dress on in coast at debenhams today. its got like a bow design on the boob bit and thaey were quite nice. think they were about £120 ish. in the same coast shop in debenhams they also had a raspberry colour dress which was a very soft drapey fabric, think it might have been chiffon which was pretty. think that was £135. but u need to look around as different shops have differenet stock! its really confusing in coast! the john lewis coast had nothing at all like it! very strange, and the bow style taffeta dress isn't on the coast webite anymore so i think it must be pot luck what the different department stores have in. if you have a look at

http://www.coast-stores.com/JUNIPER-DRAPE-BANDEAU-DRESS/Dresses---view-all/coast/fcp-product/2224678760

that is the shiffony type 1 i was talking about. the taffeta bow 1 i think was a slightly different shade in real life.

they also have some bright pink in BHS at the mo, but not sure its the shade you want
