Metallic Bridesmaids Dresses: Into It or Over It?

Silver, gold, sequined, and beaded all over - metallic bridesmaids dresses have been huge for the last few years! (Come on - you know that one Adrianna Papell dress I'm talking about!) While it's a well documented fact that I'm personally sequin obsessed, even I can admit that these bridesmaids dresses definitely do not fall in the "you can totally wear this again" category. Smiley shame

What's your take on sparkly and metallic bridesmaids dresses? Are you into it or over it ?

    Over it. I think it looks good if it's one of two BMs in these dresses for a mismatched look, but everyone in sequins and sparkles is overkill.

    Over it! I've heard they are terribly itchy and why would you but your BMs through that?

    I love the look but thought it might be hot and uncomfortable for my wedding, plus I wanted my BMs in Tiffany Blue ... also the sequin dresses are more expensive.

    I think they're pretty. I especially like ones with glittery tops and plain skirts. But, I also think it's important to let your BM wear what they feel comfortable in.

    Love it for the right event, especially holiday/winter weddings.

    Into it! Not having them at our wedding unfortunately, but I love the look. Just doesn’t fit in with our rustic theme. If we had done our second choice, a 1920s themed wedding, sequined dresses would’ve been a definite!

    I love the look but I’m just not sure how practical it is. They look itchy, unfomrtable, and probably hot.

    Always into it! Haven't picked the BM dresses yet and still can't decide if I want metallic or not

    It's okay. Feels like more of an evening wedding than a day wedding.

    So based on the pictures- the one on the top is really pretty. The pattern is nice but not so ridiculous that it takes from the bride. I feel like the second picture is obnoxious.
    So brides preference I guess
    I am picking a simple navy blue so....
    Over it?
