    As far as wedding festivities are concerned, a hen party is certainly one of the main events on the calendar. Of course, being the bride-to-be, most of the day's organisation is sure to be taken care of for you, meaning one of the only items on your to-do list will be figuring out what to wear. Your hen party dress can set the tone for the entire day, so it's important to find something that makes you feel your best. 

    Luckily, that's where we come in. We've scoured the web to bring you the absolute best edit of hen party dresses available, no matter what your budget is. 

    Whether you're a bride who wants to go for a trending white dress, or you're planning to brighten things up with a colourful confection, we have plenty of options.

    And better yet, we even have some rental looks to choose from, too. If your hen party is a time when you want to take a sartorial risk (say by adding feathers, for example) but you're not sure the look will fit in with your forever wardrobe, then renting is a great alternative to buying something new. Plus, it's more sustainable and the item will be returned to be worn again and again, helping the circular fashion movement thrive. 

    When it comes to brands, there are a few out there that are really excelling in the hen party stakes. Aussie label Aje creates statement mini dresses that are sure to make you stand out in a crowd, while 16Arlington is known for its party-ready pieces. Charo Ruiz has summer brides covered with its delicate broderie pieces, while Cult Gaia should be your go-to if you're looking for a head-turning outfit. 

    Whether you're in the market for a white dress or a bright dress, a designer or high-street investment, keep scrolling to 18 hen party dresses as hand-selected by a fashion editor.
