"Style Me Pretty"

The truth is, friends and family just love you so much that even if they don't feel confident and comfortable wearing the gown you have chosen for them, they just don't tell you (at least not to your face). They simply don't want to hurt you even if their own egos and confidence are getting hurt.
Even if you are the bride and it's your special day to shine, make your entourage happy and pretty--don't make them feel fat, or ugly or broke.
We're not saying you are intentionally doing so--but you MIGHT be unknowingly doing it--especially when you are model-esque and look good in anything--well sister--not everyone does.
Here are some mishaps that have been shared with us via direct messages by previous entourage members, and later on we will provide some suggestions on how to style your entourage pretty.
1. Please don't choose unflattering styles. Thin, sexy brides fall into this trap all the time--they think everyone else has a rockin' body and would look fab in dresses that don't look exactly nice to some. Remember that some girls wanna accentuate while some girls want to hide a body part. Learn to put yourselves in your friends' shoe. REBEL X says: "How would YOU feel if you were forced to wear an empire cut gown that makes you look preggers?"

"Traditionally", the entourage is asked to wear, what I personally call, "entourage gown uniforms" reminiscent of debuts or cotillions. The gowns are usually of the same color or palette, of the same fabric, and varied only by styles which can range from haltered, tube, off-shoulder, etc, etc. While there's nothing wrong with this, my advice is to be more adventurous about it, create a more fashionable theme the likes of a runway collection, so that your entourage will REALLY have fun with it!
Designer Hindy Weber Tantoco is fast becoming a favorite for entourage collections. And rightfully so, as she has been known to be versatile, being the brain child of Rustan's U and U-Swim (for teens), Culte Femme (for women), Belle Mama (for expecting moms), and Kiddos (for kids). With 10 years in the retail biz, hers is an experience unparalleled by no other. In fact, she's had brides who have asked her to create an entire line of wedding collection, which includes gowns, resorts wear, and even swimsuits!
