Help with bridemaid dresses for young girls

hi everyone. Besides for my maid of honor I have 4 younger bridesmaids. A 14 year old, 2 12-year olds and a 7 year old. I have no idea what to do about the dresses. I already went shopping with my maid of honor, but all of the dresses that looked good on her were way to mature for the younger girls. Also the 14 year old is in adult sizes but the 12 year old girls probably could not where adult sizes yet.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I should go or what designer I should look at to find dresses that would look good together but are appropriate and would fit girls of different ages.

Im clueless with this!
Thanks!

Re: Help with bridemaid dresses for young girls

one option is to just let the girls choose their own dresses, as long as they're a particular color and style .... that way, everyone is comfortable and looks good.

or just have all the adults wearing one style and teh children wearing a different style dress ...

My junior bridesmaid is wearing the same dress as the regular bridesmaids but we are going to sew straps in it for her and we were throwing around the idea of getting a bolero jacker or having the shawl made into one.
