Fashion Fast Forward
By Melissa Lamkin
Hideous bridesmaid dresses are a thing of the past. Designers like Jenny Yoo, twobirds, Amsale, and Jim Hjelm are offering stylish ’maids options in such a wide array of colors and fabrics that there’s no way these frocks will spend the next three years hanging in the closet unworn. Take a cue from us and dress your gals in something they can wear long after the wedding for drinks, brunch, or even work.

i like the recycling. the worst thing is a once worn dress that sits in a closet never to be worn again. If you can get more use out of it how awesome is that!
