Pretty as a Petal - Flower Girl Fashion
When a little flower girl floats down the aisle at a wedding, she reminds the guests of what the bride must have been like as a child. And while you want her dress to match the overall scheme of the wedding, you don't want to choose anything that detracts from her girlish charm.
Pretty, feminine dresses continue to define the flower girl's image, as her dress traditionally is similar to the bridesmaids in color and style. Some brides prefer the flower girl's ensemble to resemble her own, using similar elements such as pearl beading or lace. It's not uncommon today to see flower girls mini veils to complement the bride's attire.
Another fashion trend is the inclusion of faux flower petals in the tulle overlay of the flower girls' skirt - as a subtle way to tie in the colors of the bride's floral bouquet.
