It’s pretty much a fact that once a bridesmaid dress, ALWAYS a bridesmaid dress. It’s not that brides have bad taste, but let’s face it, when four different women all have to wear the same dress, it usually only looks good on one of them.
Unless it’s a black dress. You’re bridesmaids still have a fighting chance with a black dress. And doesn’t EVERY girl need a little black dress?
Here’s a collection of our favorite budget-friendly black bridesmaid dresses. You won’t spend more than $200 on any of these beauties! (And thanks to Mallory for the great post suggestion! I hope you find something you like!)

, $100

Besides the fact that your bridesmaids might actually be able to wear these dresses again, the best part about choosing black is that even with different dress styles, your bridesmaids will still look uniform. However, there are different shades of black, so make sure your bridesmaids all choose a deep, rich uniform black.
