When you hear mahogany, mocha, or sienna, you think classic, luxurious, and timeless. So, it only makes sense to incorporate those colors into your big day, right?
However, if you’re a little hesitant — still unsure about a brown bridesmaid dress — we invite you to peek at what we have in store.
You’ll soon realize brown is one of the most versatile and commonly overlooked colors. In fact, it’s full of rich, diverse tones and an indisputable “wow” factor.
What’s not to love?
To show you exactly what we mean, we’ve hand-picked a few of our favorite bridesmaid dresses, each a gorgeous shade of brown. Most styles featured here fit every body type — from extra small to extended size.
We hope you’re inspired, especially when you consider how irresistible these gowns look paired with pops of fresh and vibrant color.
Note: While some of the images below don’t show the dress in brown, every dress picture is available in one or more shades of brown.
1. Copper: Jenny Yoo Bridesmaid Dress Sylvie
This show-stopping super long bridesmaid dress by Jenny Yoo lives and breathes “Old Hollywood” glam. Think Elizabeth Taylor or Marilyn Monroe. It’s luxe satin with a cowl neck, and its full-length cut hugs all the right places.
The cinnamon copper tone is so rich and saturated. This beauty adds a show-worthy gloss and looks amazing with a bouquet featuring rose gold tones, oatmeal, prosecco, sage, or moss green.

2. Cappuccino: Bari Jay Bridesmaid Dress Style 1976
This satin bridesmaid’s dress from Bari Jay exudes soft romantic charm. It features a draped sweetheart bodice, spaghetti straps, and a flattering A-line skirt.
The neutral cappuccino color is stunning. It’s a flattering tone on everyone and looks especially good when paired with every other color.
Combine it with forest green or royal blue. Or how about dusty pinks, marigold, or a soft lilac-wisteria?
3. Latte: Nouvelle Amsale Bridesmaid Dress Drew
This sleeveless chiffon bridesmaid dress from Amsale is flirty and fun. With a V-neckline and delicate ruffle, your bridesmaids will love that it features a tie at the waist and a mock wrap skirt.
We find it irresistible in this creamy, luxurious latte hue — a light taupe. This lovely, neutral shade of brown will offset the rest of your color palette beautifully. We recommend using it as a backdrop for gold, yellows, and greens.

4. Terracotta: Jenny Yoo Bridesmaid Dress Hayes
Transforming your bridesmaids from regular gals into modern-day goddesses has never been easier than with this dress by Jenny Yoo.
Seriously.
It’s flowy and romantic. Your wedding party will snag everyone’s attention with this dress, complete with flutter sleeves and a V-neckline.
We love it in terracotta. It’d look amazing paired with gray, creamy whites, pale yellows and light coral, soft smoky lilac, and — of course — gold. We’re talking goddesses, after all.
5. Deep Mocha: Bari Jay Bridesmaid Dress Style 2015
This chic and gorgeous strapless number by Bari Jay features a floor-length mermaid skirt — a cut that’s become a bestseller — and a trim natural waist. It’s sharp, alluring, and modern.
The backless cut is perfect for a more coiffed look with hair in a sleek updo or left loose and flowing to offset the mermaid vibes. Select it in “deep mocha” — a neutral with a slight caramel warmth that looks incredible with sandy neutrals and pastels.

This beautiful chiffon bridesmaid dress from Hayley Paige Occasions gives off ball gown vibes. The A-line gown has a curved strapless bodice that cinches in at the waist and a removable cape. This feature provides a touch of high-neck, old-world glam.
The design looks incredible in this sultry sienna tone. The color and style together create an irresistible vivacious combo. For a bold look, pair with a bright and colorful bouquet featuring vibrant yellow, orange, reds, and greens.
Soft creamy whites and blush pinks will do the trick for a more muted look.

8. Espresso: Jenny Yoo Bridesmaid Dress Sawyer
This little number is alluring. This luxurious satin dress from Jenny Yoo features effortless off-the-shoulder straps, a soft cowl neckline, a form-fitting bodice, and a flowing skirt. It’s complete with a cutaway slit ending mid-thigh, offering a sultry peek of skin.
This versatile dress works perfectly with almost any aesthetic, from boho to beach. Accessorize with a pair of sequin or delicate beaded earrings.
Its deep, almost chocolate brown espresso tones add sophisticated glam, and its depth means it works well with everything. Yes, including hot pink florals.
9. Mahogany: Jenny Yoo LWD Dress Calla
If a goddess needed a cocktail dress, this Jenny Yoo dress is what she’d pick. Featuring an asymmetrical midi dress, your shoe-loving bridesmaids won’t know what to love more:
The ooh-la-la dress or a chance to show off a pair of strappy heels.
The one-shoulder neckline and soft pleated details bring pure elegance. With delicate details, including subtle ruching, it’s equally a formal dress and a party dress.
Basically, you can’t go wrong, especially when choosing the deep purply black mahogany color. It’s the perfect, classic, sophisticated color to highlight a remarkably dazzling dress.
Pair it with gold, eucalyptus, and sage green. Though honestly, it looks amazing with any color palette.
10. Toffee: Lovely LB008
This absolutely enchanting dress from Lovely would fit perfectly with an ethereal outdoor wedding. We’re talking about a forest wedding or a romantic indoor affair; think roses and warm, flickering candlelight.
This dress is an elegant statement with its long sleeves, a plunging V-neck neckline, and delicate shirring at the bodice. It also boasts an asymmetrical skirt that’s knee-length at the front.
The neutral warmth of the toffee color looks lovely with crimson and other fiery tones. But greens, yellows, and pale blues play off it nicely, too.
11. Auburn Moon: After Six 6825
This full-length maxi dress from After Six, with flirty cap sleeves, a cinched waist, and — gasp — pockets, brings simple elegance. With a cut that flatters everyone, this dress will add some polish and refinement to any big day.
The gorgeous reddish brown of “auburn moon” adds a little fiery twist to the earthiness of brown. This dress would look really good with mustard and other yellows, oatmeal, and — of course — dusty pinks.
