Burgundy Bridesmaid Dresses With Sleeves
Burgundy bridesmaid dresses with sleeves are best for cold days because they give some coverage. They are also some of the best choices for plus-size bridesmaids because of their beautiful illusion. Half sleeves with ruffles or a swishy flow-down would look great at whimsical or bohemian weddings.
For formal or more modern weddings, the sleeves could be more fitted or dramatic while the dress flows down in folds or A-line. This look blends in well with peach and gold jewelry from bangles to earrings and clutch. Pair your look with nude, gold, or peach-colored strap sandals to finish your look.

Also, you can add lace detailing to this dress to make it look more elegant and sophisticated while adding some sparkle to it as well. You can choose to wear a pair of matching earrings or statement rings while pairing this dress with your favorite heels or sandals.

Burgundy Bridesmaid Dresses With Halter Neck
Are you heading to the beach, winery, or woods for a fall wedding, choose burgundy bridesmaid dresses with halter neck. They are sights to behold in these blends of colors done in velvet, sequins, or chiffon. Match your dress with a pair of droopy earrings with garnet or ruby gemstones.
Follow this look with a rectangular tennis bracelet, a mix of latte and cream-colored bouquet, and champagne gold dainty sandals. Whip your hair into a high bun, low bun, or the classic chignon to show off your neck, back, and shoulders. Finish your look with a statement lipstick color of your choosing.
Burgundy Bridesmaid Dresses With Split
Flirty, sexy, and uber-haute are a few words that describe burgundy bridesmaid dresses with a slit. If you want a pop of colors, consider burgundy and gold bridesmaid dresses with front slits, especially for whimsical and garden-inspired weddings. Think strapless, spaghetti straps, corset back, lace-up closure, or plunging v-neckline to complement the design. We also love flowy or fitted options in lush satin, velvet material, or a lace romper design.
These ideas are the perfect fit for hot seasons. Finish this look with statement jewelry and cascading wave hairstyles. Opt for wedges, dainty sandals, or platform shoes and a matching bouquet.

Plus-Size Bridesmaid Dresses Burgundy Ideas
Burgundy bridesmaid dresses for curvy beauties are fun to pick out because the color complements all body types. However, you must remember that body shapes differ, and plus-size bridesmaids look best in empire waists and A-line dresses. Go for a simple midi slip dress with spaghetti straps paired with champagne sandals and a ponytail for autumn weddings.
Alternatively, a lengthy pleated chiffon dress with kimono sleeves and nude stilettos is the perfect formal look for winter. You could also wear an off-the-shoulder flowy frock, dainty sandals, silver jewelry, and a ponytail for summer or spring weddings. This look will draw attention to your beautiful neckline.
Burgundy Bridesmaid Dresses Alternatives
If you are an unconventional bride who loves to step out of the box, then you may not want your girls to wear dresses. There are stunning alternatives like fitted or flowy jumpsuits great for simple, semi-formal, and beach weddings. Accessorize heavily and pair with a hairstyle that channels fierceness.
You can also consider a two-piece skirt and blouse or a burgundy floral pattern mixed with cream, gold, or black accents for formal weddings.
The best way to create the perfect burgundy look is to make sure you have your burgundy bridesmaid dresses in the same color. The color of your wedding can be a very vital element on your special day, so it is essential to make sure that you can match them up with each other.
