By Kellee Khalil, Lover.ly
Would you shop for a wedding gown in the bridesmaid section? Maybe you should! Brides on a budget know this is one of the oldest and easiest tricks in the book when it comes to keeping wedding costs down. And designers -- both high-end and budget-friendly alike -- have taken note. We've seen a shift away from the "Plain Jane" strapless, shapeless gowns, especially during Bridal Market 2014, with the new crop of bridesmaid dresses that can rival any red carpet -- or wedding aisle -- favorite. Flowing tulle, beaded bodices, one-shoulder gowns...you'll look every bit the glamorous bride, even if you didn't say yes to a dress from the bridal racks. Here are 10 bridesmaid gowns that could easily be worn by the bride.
