We Tried MESHKI's New Bridal Collection—These Are the Styles Our Engaged Editors Loved

Even for the most fashion-forward brides-to-be, shopping for their wedding wardrobes can be a tough task. With everything from the engagement photo shoot to the bridal shower taking place before the big day, many brides feel stressed about finding multiple unique pieces that speak to their personal styles yet are special enough to wear during these special moments. We at BRIDES understand how important this part of the pre-wedding process is, so we couldn't have been happier at the launch of MESHKI's bridal collection, which has countless pieces perfect for the modern bride at reasonable prices. After recruiting two brides-to-be from the BRIDES team to test out several options from this cool-girl brand's newest launch (available exclusively online), we found the best MESHKI Bridal pieces for engagement shoots, bridal parties, bachelorette trips, reception second looks, and more. Read on for our real brides' favorite picks.

"I have already decided that I want to wear the Juno dress for my art gallery engagement photos. This 2-in-1 look comes with a strapless plissé underdress that perfectly pairs with a bodice featuring an asymmetrical hemline and rounded neckline, giving it a modern elegance that reminds me of a sculpture. While it's not styled with a neck scarf on the Meshki website, I love adding one as a finishing touch for an already stunning look." —Araziel Jackson, BRIDES social media editor

"The Sofia Maxi Dress is the bridal party dress to end all bridal party dresses. First and foremost, it’s deceivingly comfortable. Despite its elaborate fabrication, it is lightweight and super airy—plus, the lining underneath prevents the sequins from rubbing against your skin, so you can wear it for hours without any discomfort. I was blown away by how flattering it was, too. Despite being form-fitting in the midsection, the sequins cover any outlines or curves I’d want to conceal. My favorite part, however, is the open back, which gives the otherwise modest shape a risqué, glamorous touch. This dress was made for a second look of the night, but it’s elegant enough to wear to a rehearsal dinner or engagement party, too. I paired it with close-toe kitten heels, but it would look good with any white heel." —Christina Oehler, BRIDES shopping editor

"A strapless neckline, drop waistline, and a belt is the finishing touch to this '90s-inspired bridal look from Meshki. I can't help but feel this gown is the perfect choice for a Nancy Meyers-inspired wedding celebration. Pair it with a chic bridal hat and you have your Parent Trap moment." —Araziel Jackson

"This set is a twist on the classic bridal pantsuit. The wide-leg pants are airy and lightweight, which perfectly complements the form-fitting blazer, which is the real star of the show. For a pantsuit that was not tailored to my specific measurements, it ran pretty true to size. The gaping neckline allows you to add a statement necklace for a finishing touch, and its open back gives it a bit more personality than a typical blazer. I particularly liked that there are two sets of buttons to keep it secure. The best part? You can pair the blazer with a satin mini skirt or the wide-leg pants with an embellished tank top—the possibilities to mix and match are endless." —Christina Oehler

"Lean into the micro-mini trend with the Isabel dress from Meshki. The corseted bodice is expertly paired with a gathered neckline, thick straps, back buttons, and a structured skirt for a modern after-party look." —Araziel Jackson
