Select

Custom CSS can be used to alter the default appearance of the native <select>'s.

Default #

To activate the custom styles, custom <select> menus just require the custom class .form-select. Due to browser restrictions, custom styles are only able to alter the <select>'s default appearance and cannot change the <option>s.

Sizing #

In order to match our similarly sized text inputs, also select from tiny and large custom selects. 

<select class="form-select form-select-lg mb-3" aria-label=".form-select-lg example">
  <option selected>Open this select menu</option>
  <option value="1">One</option>
  <option value="2">Two</option>
  <option value="3">Three</option>
</select>

    
<select class="form-select form-select-sm" aria-label=".form-select-sm example">
  <option selected>Open this select menu</option>
  <option value="1">One</option>
  <option value="2">Two</option>
  <option value="3">Three</option>
