The Dessy Group is made up of not one, not two, but six design houses. Established in 1939, Dessy Group founder Margot Rosenthal began designing veils and headpieces before her daughter and son-in-law took over the business in the 1950s. Now, the business makes everything from bridesmaid gowns to flower girl apparel. The labels include the Dessy Collection, After Six, Alfred Sung, Lela Rose Bridesmaid, Social Bridesmaids, 57 Grand and After Six Wedding. They also have a partner line with designer Jenny Yoo.
The Dessy Collection line of bridesmaid dresses are upscale, modern and classy. Designed by Vivian Dessy Diamond, their gowns focus on a sleek, classic cut with a variety of flattering necklines and colors. Vivian also works with a wide range of fabrics, from silk to chiffon to organza to satin, meaning that no matter the season or vibe of your day, you can find a bridesmaid gown to go with it.
Vivian has said that part of the reason she keeps her designs simple are so that bridesmaids can play with accessories and make the look their own while still matching the wedding party. If you’re not sure what type of bridesmaid’s gown you want, starting with a line like Dessy could be perfect because of the bounty of options. You can find Dessy Collection bridesmaid gowns in most major bridal retailers as well as department stores like Nordstrom. You can also order online on the Dessy website.
Dessy Bridesmaid Dress Collection 2022
Woman Getting Married Says: Dessy Collection bridesmaid dresses are perfect for a fancier, more high-end wedding. The dresses have a great subtle beauty: your girls will look beautiful, but won’t steal any attention away from the bride. The dresses are very simple, with minimal lace or beading, and instead focus on a flattering fit.
We think that makes them the perfect bridesmaid’s apparel! We also love the lush colors they come in, from a more daring fuschia to an elegant amethyst. The line also offers options that are comparatively affordable, meaning you won’t be forcing your maids to drop serious dollars to be part of your big day.
Below are a few of our favorite Dessy bridesmaid looks from their latest collections!
