6 Red Outfits That Bridesmaids can Flaunt Without Upstaging the Bride

You know how in white weddings you cannot upstage the bride in any way, i.e., not turn in a white dress? You shouldn’t even try to steal her thunder. In fact, many brides lay down the rules beforehand. Similarly, an unwritten rule exists for brown weddings as well- you cannot look like you are the bride. Which means try and stay away from red, wear minimal makeup and jewellery. But if you are a fan of red and insist on wearing that colour, balance out your outfit. You don’t want to upset the bride, after all! Take a cue from these 6 ladies who wore chic yet simple red ensembles- this way you won’t be upstaging the bride and still be wearing your favourite colour.
