One Shoulder Bridesmaid Dress in Mauve

Satin One Shoulder Bridesmaid Dress

This pretty color, great one-shoulder neckline, and elegant stretch satin ( i.e. stretch that looks chic and tailored, not uncomfortably stretched!) made me look twice at this ladylike mauve dress for fall bridesmaids or wedding guests.

Mauve Bridesmaid Dress

Mauve is one of those colors that doesn't get a lot of love, but when you see it on the right dress, it really is lovely! I didn't see much of the Emmy Awards, but I did see a photo of Halle Berry, wearing a great color, and it reminded me of this color I spied last week at J.Crew. J.Crew calls this color Chocolate Mauve, and it's somewhere between a dark taupe, and purple, with a little pinkish brown thrown in. It's a hard color to describe, but I love it for fall dresses and bridesmaids!

This deep neutral shade plays so nicely with gray, copper, amethyst, gold so I tired to find accessories that allowed all of those colors to come through.  If you love pink or light neutrals, and are trying to figure out a way to use a richer version of those hues for a fall wedding, or you want a shade of brown that isn't overly dark, I think this color would be my pick!
