Athena is the cowl-back dress your bridal party already knows – cut down for the junior bridesmaid walking in front of them. Soft chiffon falls from a gently draped front neckline into a full, floating skirt, and the back opens into the deep swagged cowl the style is named for. It reads grown-up from every angle without asking a young girl to manage a strapless bodice for six hours.

Two pink shades sit under this one listing, so you can put your junior in the exact tone your bridesmaids are wearing, or step her a shade lighter.

Who it suits: The front neckline sits wide and soft across the collarbones, which balances narrow shoulders and keeps everything covered through the ceremony – no adjusting, no slipping. Chiffon is weightless and skims rather than clings, so it moves with a growing frame instead of mapping it, and the floor-sweeping skirt lengthens petite juniors. On colouring: Blush Pink is a warm peachy rose that flatters fair and golden skin and looks lovely on juniors with warm blonde or light brown hair; Smoked Blush is the greyer, dustier pink of the two, and that softness is what makes it sit beautifully on cool, porcelain and pink-toned complexions without washing them out.

Perfect for: Chiffon breathes, which makes this the one for a summer garden ceremony, a beach aisle or a long warm afternoon that runs into an evening reception. Both pinks sit naturally with ivory, cream, dusty rose and peach florals, and pair straight back with blush and champagne bridesmaid gowns. Ideal for junior bridesmaids aged eight to fourteen walking with an older party in matching TH&TH chiffon.
