Maid of Honour Dresses

The Lead Bridesmaid

The maid of honour stands closest to the bride throughout the day - in the ceremony, in the photos, in the speeches. The role calls for a slight visual distinction from the rest of the bridal party without breaking the coordinated look.

Three approaches work: a slightly different colour in the same family (deeper sage instead of soft sage), the same colour in the alternative fabric (Classic matte jersey when bridesmaids wear Luxe Satin), or the same dress styled in a more distinctive neckline.

Same Dress, Different Style

The infinity dress was built for exactly this kind of differentiation. Two long sash straps tie into 99+ different necklines. The maid of honour wraps her dress one way; the rest of the bridal party wraps theirs another.

The visual effect: a coordinated bridal party where the maid of honour reads as the lead without any obvious styling difference. Photos still match. The hierarchy still reads naturally.

Two Fabrics

Classic matte jersey is the most popular bridal party choice - lightweight, breathable, and forgiving. Available in 55+ colours, the widest range in the line.

Luxe Satin suits evening weddings and formal venues. Mix Classic and Luxe Satin within the same colour family for a textured bridal party look - one common approach is to put the maid of honour in Luxe Satin while the rest of the party wears Classic.

Sizing

Available in Size 1 (UK 6-16) and Size 2 (UK 16-26). The elasticated waistband adapts to every body shape including maternity. For specific sizing needs, see plus size bridesmaid dresses and maternity bridesmaid dresses.

Order Swatches First

Coordinating with the bridal party means matching shade and fabric exactly. Order fabric swatches to confirm tone in person before committing. Swatches ship free worldwide.

Most maids of honour order swatches at the same time as the bride - typically two to three colour options to compare against the wedding palette. The slight tonal differences between Classic and Luxe Satin in the same colour are easier to spot in person than on screen.
