Want more than a one-dress-fits-all style for your bridesmaids? Local brides looking for dresses their maids will love (and wear again) should check out Flutter Boutique in the LynLake neighborhood. This fashion-forward shop offers mix-and-match styles and colors that afford brides—and their party—more freedom to express their own style.

Maybe you’ve picked a color, but want to let your attendants choose their own design? Or perhaps you have a style in mind, but want them to find their own color. “We want to understand the bride’s vision and be able to offer [a range of] dresses, fabrics, and colors,” says owner Michelle Hanson.

Flutter offers dresses from on-trend lines such as Thread, Jenny Yoo, and Siri, starting at $188. Recently, the shop began stocking bridal gowns as well. “We had brides coming in looking for simple, well-made, affordable dresses,” says Hanson. “The type of bride we work with is looking to do something [unique].”

What else can you expect to find at Flutter?

+ Personal service. Flutter is open by appointment only, and Hanson doesn’t double book, so you can have a true boutique experience.
+ An eye for style. The staff is always on the lookout for trends in color and style—like this year’s mixed neutrals in fun fabrics such as seersucker.
+ Bling. The boutique carries a line of accessories, shoes, and ties in coordinating fabrics to complete each look. It truly is a one-stop-shop.

Flutter Boutique, 720 W. Lake St., Mpls., 612-216-1926
