CHOOSING THE RIGHT DRESS

Everyone thinks they know how to choose a wedding gown, but what most women don’t realize is fabrics, style and measurements can influence the style of wedding dress that best complements a particular body type.

• If you’re a full-figured woman, the best silhouette is the A-line style. A-line style lengthens the whole body without drawing attention to your waistline.


• A-line wedding dresses are also flattering on petite women. As we stated earlier, this style lengthens the body. Sheaths seem to shorten a small body even more, so petite women should avoid sheath-style wedding dresses. Also steer clear of very full skirts, which will make you look ‘bottom heavy’.


• You want to keep your wedding dress proportionate to your body. Off-the-shoulder gowns look wonderful on a full bust. It draws our attention upward, emphasizes the shoulders and minimizes the chest. Keep your skirt narrow. Wearing a full skirt will make you look large both on top and bottom.


• Women who are larger through their hips and buttocks should look for a wedding dress that focuses on their upper body — preferably with a full skirt.
  Show off your arms, back and bustline.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT IS THE SECOND MOST IMPORTANT THING. FIND A DRESS THAT FIT YOU PERFECTLY AND YOU'LL LOOK GORGEOUS FOR YOUR BIG DAY.
