Bridesmaid Dresses- Flattering larger sized girls

I went to RK bridal today to look at BM dresses and fell in love with one below. it has a corset back. My girls ranges from size 0 to size 20something. Im nervous about how the larger girls will look, I was hoping that the corset will help give them a figure. Of course the store only had a size 4, so they couldnt try it on. They are all being super sweet and saying well if thats what I want to get it. can anyone comment if that style of dress would be flattering and comfortable to wear.. thanks

I think the criss-cross at the top and how it flows out for the skirt could be very flattering on all sizes. When my MOH got married, we ranged from 0 to 20 somethings as well, and the top had a similar feel to this dress, but ours was a zip up. All the girls looked great.

I think it would work. I am a big girl and wore something similar as a bridesmaid. I'll see if I can post a pic.

Agreed! The ruching at the waist and a line cut will flatter everyone!

I think between the ruching, the corset, and the light flow of the material I think they will look beautiful on all your girls no matter what size they are. I say great choice :)

I agree, my bridesmaids choose a similar style dress with the slanted runching across the midriff area and it looks great on all of them (sizes 2- 18)

I have the same problem.. I have some girls a size 2 and some a 24.. so I let them pick their own dresses at Davids Bridal, as long as they are plum and long. They all love their dresses and I couldn't be happier for them. For your picture, I think rouching is flattering on every size!

Thanks girls for all your help.. I decided to go with this one because I really do like it the most.... now just waiting for the girls for the sizes to order, hopefully by this friday. Does RK really take 3 months for them to come in?
