From a new twist on sequins to velvet elegance to flowy romantic designs, your wedding party is going to be just as fabulous as you and your sweetie at the altar. So as the weather turns down the temperature, we have chosen our top 10 favorites for this 2022 winter season to keep your besties warm and glamorous.
Yellow Bridesmaid Dress with Off-the-Shoulder Puffed Sleeves
Between the romantic drop puff sleeves and cross-body bodice, this satin charmeuse bridesmaid dress is a stunner for all shapes and sizes! We love the modern elegance this style brings to any wintry wedding, especially in the warm golden canary color. Double bonus is that it already has a built-in bra so you don't have to find undergarments to support and hide underneath the low sweetheart neckline.

Having an evening celebration at a museum or a modern hotel? Consider this gorgeous chiffon number! We absolutely love a fabulous jumpsuit for bridesmaids, and the classic black hue never disappoints. With this style's asymmetrical neckline with shoulder bow detail and wide leg design, it checks all the boxes for us! Elegant, check. Flirty, check. Practical for chilly weather, check. Your ladies can pair shoes with a pop of color or even a nice white sneaker for the reception to get their dance on.

Wine-Colored Asymmetrical Sequin and Velvet Bridesmaid Gown
If this doesn't scream New Year's Eve wedding, then we don't know what does! Blending two different trends of sequin and velvet, we adore how this bridesmaid dress sparkles without overdoing it for a truly sophisticated yet fun party look. Its mermaid fit and leg slit is perfect for any glamorous wedding theme. It comes in 6 different colors, but we are partial to this shade of burgundy this winter season!

Deep V-Neck Chiffon Bridesmaid Dress with Long Sleeves
This season needs this dress! Everything about it is gorgeous and why it's Chelsea's top choice if she were a bridesmaid. Billowy long chiffon sleeves are perfect for winter weddings. Bridesmaids don't overheat while dancing and still keep a little bit warm during the wedding ceremony without the need for a shawl or jacket. With a flattering deep v-neckline and simple chiffon belt, this look works for all shapes, so if you're looking to have a matching wedding party, everyone will look their best. And the obvious bonus is that this is one gown that can definitely be worn after the wedding day!

Rust-Colored Bridesmaid Chiffon Jumpsuit
Made with top grade chiffon, this modern jumpsuit gets the ultimate romantic treatment in its fitted yet flowy construction. The 3/4 sleeves make it perfect. As all professional stylists would advise, show off your wrists if you want to show the smallest part of your figure and balance out your shape! There is a side zipper to help you get in and out of the jumpsuit easily without help (because let's be real, we need practical solutions when dressing up!). And of course, we love the rusted color for a muted tone at a winter wedding.

For pregnant bridesmaids out there, style doesn't have to be compromised when finding the perfect gown, and this one is beautiful for all shapes and sizes. Between the short flutter sleeves and a waistline that can sit a little higher, we adore that this dress can accommodate those with a bit of a baby bump. And if you need custom sizing to make sure it fits all the curves, you can give your exact measurements to AW Bridal for a perfect-for-you fit. The satin shimmer also brings wintry elegance while the floor length gives some cozy warmth to a chilly wedding day.

Velvet Sleeveless V-Neck Bridesmaid Dress
Velvet forever when it comes to winter celebrations! The simplicity of this effortless tea length bridesmaid dress gives versatility to so many different wedding themes and venues, and another perfect stretchier option for ladies with baby bumps. It gives a great swishy swing on the dance floor and allows for a "normal" bra to be worn with it which is great for those who need a bit more bust support with their formal attire. We especially love this darker teal color for a late winter wedding to embrace the colder temperatures!

Lace Column Bridesmaid Dress
Hello, elegance meets stature! Nothing says classic like a column silhouette, and when paired with a fitted mermaid lace skirt and flowy silk-like bodice, this gown has it all for any event that requires a bit of sophistication. We love the halter neckline that gives a modern vintage vibe which is ideal for those bridesmaids looking for more height and volume for their smaller frames. Pair it with an updo hairstyle, and you have a timeless yet contemporary look for an evening wedding.
