Hello! It’s time to decide what to wear to your bridal shower, something you’ve probably put on the back-burner for awhile as you’ve spent time looking for your perfect wedding dress. Am I right? ;) Well, if you’re wondering what the bride usually wears to the bridal shower, you’ve come to the right place. We’ll show you our top picks for little white dresses and causal wedding dresses from David’s Bridal so you have the perfect dress to wear to all of your wedding events, from the bridal shower to the rehearsal dinner and any brunch or bridesmaid soirees along the way. Enjoy!
What to Wear to Your Bridal Shower
While it is acceptable to wear anything you’d like to your bridal shower (keeping with the theme and tone of the particular event, of course), the bride typically wears — wait for it — WHITE! And while not all brides wear white to the bridal shower (and when we say white, it can also be ivory, champagne, off-white, etc,), most of them do. And here’s why wearing white to your bridal shower is a classic choice.
Brides typically wear white to the bridal shower. Here’s why:
You’re the bride… the center of attention! It makes sense to continue that color theme throughout the bridal shower (as well as engagement parties and your rehearsal dinner). Some brides even wear a casual white dress to the bachelorette party, especially when paired with fun heels like these and of course, one of these.
Can I wear the same little white dress to my other wedding events?
Yes! The best part of picking a LWD for your wedding shower is the ability to wear it to a handful of wedding-related parties. For example, you can wear your white bridal shower dress to your engagement party (if you are having one), rehearsal dinner, as a reception dress, or as you jet-set to your relaxing honeymoon oasis.
There’s no other time in your life when you’ll be the center of attention wearing a white dress, so embrace it!
Where can I buy a white dress for my bridal shower?
Finding the perfect white dress for your bridal shower is so much easier now that David’s Bridal offers a huge collection on their website. You can try them on in-store, or order online (I’ve ordered a handful of bridesmaid dresses online from David’s Bridal and I’m always pleasantly surprised how great they fit, without even going in-store to try it on). If you take proper measurements, ordering online is a breeze and you probably won’t even need any alterations. If you do, they can do them for you for an additional fee or you can find a professional seamstress in your local area.
There are many reasons why we recommend these casual wedding dresses & little white dresses, but here’s the top ones. They’re the best when it comes to ease of shopping (browse and buy online, while watching Netflix and drinking coffee); they offer amazing prices (seriously, many of these are steals); and they have a beautiful collection. Wait. til. you. see. them.
We’ve rounded up the best-of-the-best for little white dresses: any of these are the answer to what to wear to your bridal shower. On to the list!
Little White Dresses for Your Bridal Shower
When you’re figuring out what to wear to your bridal shower, pick a dress that makes you feel beautiful. You’re the center of attention at your bridal shower, so you’ll want to wear a dress that you’ll feel confident in. Pick something that is comfortable, yet elegant enough for the occasion; choose a dress you’ll love to wear again for other wedding events (even your engagement photos). Here are some of our favorite bridal shower dresses.
1. Illusion Lace Wedding Dress
Love the fishtail hem on this dress! Buy it here.
2. Soutache Tank Midi Sheath Dress
I love the style — and the length! Great reviews, too. Buy yours here.
3. Short 3/4 Sleeved Lace Dress
This is a really cute dress and on-trend with those lace sleeves! Buy it here.
4. Cap Sleeve Lace Dress with Beaded Waist
Cute cap sleeves on a fun flare-out party dress! Buy yours here.
This little white dress features trends on top of trends: a high-neck, lace, buttons at nape, and the swingy-shift=dress silhouette that works for so many occasions. Great price, too. And I love that hem! Buy yours here.
6. Lace Cap Sleeve Dress with Lace Dart Bodice
This dress is so feminine and ultra-chic! Did I mention… it has… SIDE POCKETS?! As every dress should! Buy it here.
7. Short Lace Dress with Sheer Mesh Overlay
Chic and modern! Buy yours here.
8. Lace Dress with Embellished Waist

I love this dress! The length, the illusion tulle, the pretty ivory color… buy yours here!
10. Mixed Lace Short White Dress with Fishtail Hem
This beautiful dress has a stretch material built in so it is form fitting; it’s a stylish mix of crochet, applique, and guipure lace! Buy yours here.
11. Chiffon Dress with Plunging Neckline
This dress is technically under the casual wedding dresses section, so you could absolutely wear this as your wedding dress (one bride mentioned she wore it for a rustic ceremony — that sounds amazing!) But it also works well as a bridal shower dress, especially for a bride with boho style. Buy yours here.
12. Short Wedding Dress with Sleeves and All Over Lace
This dress is perfect for late-summer and fall weddings because it has those trendy 3/4 lace sleeves for a little bit of warmth, but a short length to stay more on the casual side. I love the all-over lace on this one; in the description, it also says this bodice is designed in a way to conceal undergarment straps — even with the white lace. Genius! Buy yours here.
