Extreme Hoop Skirts

Extreme Hoop Skirts

There are two enduring wedding clichés: All brides are beautiful, and all bridesmaid dresses are ugly, unless it’s Pippa’s. But some bridesmaid dresses go beyond ugly to truly hideous. We’ve assembled a small collection of dresses that are sure to make you cringe. See if you can guess which movie or TV show they are from, or which stars are wearing them.

Little Bo Peep would feel right at home in this flower-bedecked, hoop-skirted atrocity from a 2008 romantic comedy starring Katherine Heigl. The yellow-and-orange combination just screams good taste, but it’s the snug little bonnet and fluffy parasol that move this dress from merely ugly to “oh my god.” Film featured this Little Bo Peep number 27 Dresses

Tiered bridesmaid dresses : Tiered atrocities
Whoever said “pretty in pink” wasn’t looking at the bridesmaid dresses from this 1978 Robert Altman dark comedy. The four-tiered design of these dresses is a study in shapelessness, and the big hat casts a shadow over what little self-regard the women in the wedding party may have left. Notice how the bride is the only one really smiling is this photo? That’s because she looks fabulous by comparison. Film featured these pink tiers A Wedding. hats of princesses eugenie and beatrice

Long-sleeved jacket on bridesmaid dresses : The picture of ill-fitting frump
Nothing says “frumpy” quite so well as the boxed shoulders shoulder pads, jacketed look, and slightly-too-long sleeves of the dresses that were featured in this star-studded wedding from a popular daytime drama.

Tropical bridesmaid dresses : Much too tropical view
These well-known actresses, both drop-dead gorgeous under normal circumstances, are wearing bridesmaid dresses that make them look like cocktail waitresses in a Tiki bar.

Mother of bride dresses : Image of matronly mistakes
The best we can say about these two matronly bridesmaid dresses is that they are color coordinated. Neither style is flattering, and those jackets are six kinds of ugly.

Chiffon bridesmaid shawl : Bad accessory look
What woman wouldn’t want a chiffon, this fabric Chiffon, shawl that covers her shoulders, gathers in back just above her waist, and then spills down her back in waves of airy fabric like some multi-colored waterfall?

Ugliest bridesmaid dresses : Ugly to the max view

Not even Brooke Shields could look good in this. TV show featured the worst bridesmaid dress suddenly susan television show.
