Bridesmaid's dress

My sister is the only BM that I am having, and she initially said that she wanted a long dress.
My dress is very simple, and I want her's to be too, and I'm worried that a long dress will look too similar to mine. I'm really paranoid as she is at most a size 8, whereas I'll be a 14 at best, and have always felt like the fat one, so figure a shorter dress would split us up a bit.
Anyway, I got her to try this one on http://uk.monsoon.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/mon_13,mon_13.1/1535338812 and we both really liked it.
Only thing is it seems to only come in Navy, and I want something along the lines of raspberry or claret/burgandy. I'd also think of mink or champagne. The budget for her dress is £100.
Have any of you wonderful people seen anything similar?
