You Can’t Go Wrong with Blush Bridesmaid Dresses

There is no quintessential bridesmaid dress color, but if there were one, it would probably be blush. Blush—a rosy hue with peachy undertones—feels bridal, dreamy and fairy-tale worthy all at once. It’s the bridal equivalent of a neutral—the perfect complement to any bridal gown, any palette, any aesthetic. Blush bridesmaid dresses are, basically, the holy grail of the wedding industry.

Despite its significance in the bridal landscape, blush is one of those semi-vague colors that’s, frankly, hard to call to mind. You know blush when you see it, but you probably wouldn’t be able to describe it when asked. That’s because it’s not so much of a color as it is a tricolor. At its darkest, blush is a rich clay-raspberry; at its lightest, it’s a pastel peach. And you can’t find it on a digital color picker. Because the pinks are always situated next to the purples, and the reds next to the whites—and blush really sits at the intersection of pink and red, with a little orange thrown in, too. It runs the gamut of the colors it’s comprised of, never venturing too heavily into the territory of any of them. It’s practically tonal magic.

Given that the color is so stunning, so versatile and so wedding-appropriate, it’s little surprise that blush bridesmaid gowns have dominated the bridal landscape for years now. It’s among the most popular colors for bridesmaid dresses year after year, and it’s slated to be the trendiest bridesmaid dress color in 2019. Considering blush bridesmaid dresses are universally flattering and genuinely re-wearable, we’d call this one a win for everyone involved. Now if you’ll excuse us, we’ll be stocking our wedding guest wardrobes with all kinds of bridesmaid-worthy blush dresses. (What? We said they were re-wearable.)
