The bridesmaids should never outshine the bride. Some brides, however, seem to be taking this to the extreme when dressing up their maids of honor. Or maybe time changes fashion trends so much, that after some the style that was "in" starts to look simply ridiculous. Either way, Bored Panda has collected a series of vintage bridesmaids dresses that are so funny, that you'll probably feel sorry for the women who wore them.

The 70s fashion brought outrageous patterns, floppy hats, and undiscernable silhouettes to the mix, 80s fashion later added vivid color, spandex, and space-filling hairdos. No matter the era, though, these absolutely unique vintage outfits would make your silly Spongebob PJs look like a classy suit. Scroll down to check out the images and upvote your favorite outrageous fashion statements!

In my opinion, these are actually really elegant designs for bridesmaid dresses. The dresses themselves match the basic design of the bride's dress without being an exact copy. I especially like the fact that with the way the dresses are pieced together, a design like theirs would go well on any body figure. Also, I would just LOVE to see them billow in the wind ^-^

I like that the styles are identical, but the colors are different. The dresses are fairly simple, and could easily be re-used (in the 70s, these were high style).

Oh so true Lizard Queen! - having served as a very young flower girl, back in the mid-late 70's, when most bride's maid & bridal gowns were sewn at home. The simple, yet elegant pattern in various colors was considered very fashionable. As were the flower bundles.

Honestly, I think these dresses are quite pretty and I like the bouquets too! The only thing I would change is the bride's coiffure.

    I think historically, you had a bridesmaid who was to dress like the bride to confuse any demon or evil spirit coming to disrupt the wedding. So, the fact that they have veils and all would serve that purpose.

    There was a time in the not too too distant past that more "revealing" dresses were frowned upon during the church ceremony. Since the dresses themselves appear to be sleeveless (and maybe they had an open neckline?) they might have made these as an inexpensive, horribly misguided cover-up for the ceremony.

    They were fashionable at the time; also back then it probably wouldn't have been considered appropriate not to wear some kind of head covering for a church wedding. Brides and bridemaids weren't expected to dress like they would for any other event.

    I'm wondering if the hooded cover-ups are for Catholic weddings. They are still more strict about covered arms & heads in some Catholic churches, so I'm sure they were even more strict back then. So if you wanted bare arms & cleavage on your dresses, then a matching cover-up would make sense. Didn't you have to cover your head in a Catholic church back then also?

    The dresses are kind of pretty, and the color is nice. Too matchy-matchy with them wearing the same necklace, and the puffy sleeves are vintage '80s. The bride's train is silver not white, for some reason.

    I'm going to make a very confident guess based on the time period, the flower style, the shoes, the hair, the accessories, etc, that these were supposed to be Chinese style (or at least influenced) dresses. The silken fabric and collar style also really suports this theory. I'm not saying this was well executed but I would be very surprised if this was not the intent.

    I actually took one of those dresses and re-made it into my prom dress. I removed the sleeves and took the rufflle off the shoulder and removed the set in lace around the neck and made it tea length. The colour was this amazing teal. White shoes, white mesh gloves and I felt like Madonna. It was 1986.
