Choosing an Elegant, Sophisticated Wedding Gown
Pear-Shaped Brides: If you have a narrower upper body and fuller hips and thighs, consider an A-line or ball gown silhouette. These styles accentuate the waist while providing balance to the lower body.
Hourglass Brides: For those with well-defined and balanced curves, wedding dresses that cinch at the waist and follow close to the body, such as mermaids and trumpets, are ideal.
Apple-Shaped Brides: For brides who have a fuller upper body and a more narrow lower body, consider an A-line or modified A-line silhouette. These shapes provide balance and effortlessly elongate the body.
Rectangle-Shaped Brides: This body type typically features a narrow frame where the bust, waist, and hip are all equal in size and proportions. Opt for a sheath or column gown as it accentuates the long and lean stature.
Petite Brides: Brides with a shorter stature may want to consider simpler designs with delicate or minimal embellishments. A sheath or soft A-line silhouette elongates the body while open necklines, such as strapless or V-necklines, further lengthen the overall frame.
Plus-Size Brides: Fit-and-flare, A-line, and ball gown silhouettes are stunning choices for plus-size brides. Details that accentuate and cinch the body, such as corsets and ruching, are ideal for providing physical comfort and visual definition.
While these tips offer a starting point, we believe the most crucial factor is how the dress makes you feel!
