One of Jane’s favorite ideas for an unforgettable bridal shower dress is to add a pop of color to your picture perfect Little White Dress. Three of our favorite short wedding party dresses, the Isabella, Anna and Emery, each feature a little Something Blue with a Light Blue satin ribbon detail.
The Isabella pairs an elegant flowy skirt designed for twirling with a sweetheart neckline perfect for showcasing a gorgeous pendant or family heirloom. The backless bodice has an optional Light Blue satin ribbon tie that floats airily around as you greet and snap photos with friends & family.
Similarly, the Emery also has a sweetheart neckline and ribbon tie detail but with a shorter Garden Rose textural skirt.
The Anna adds a touch of blue through the delicate, airy Light Blue satin ribbon tie straps. Available with a zipper or with crystal and pearl buttons, the Anna is a favorite little white bridal shower and rehearsal dinner dress of many brides.
For the bride that prefers a chic dramatic look, we suggest a Black satin ribbon. Customize the ribbon on your little white dress to feature your favorite color.

Wondering how to find your perfect fit in wedding gowns? Typically wedding dress sizes can be different from regular clothing sizes. Wedding dress sizing often follows its own set of sizing charts, and may differ from one bridal designer or brand to another. Wedding dress sizes often run smaller than regular clothing sizes, meaning that a bride may need to choose a wedding dress size that is larger than her usual size.
