Want to find out what’s the best
gown for your big day? Well, choosing the best gown really depends on your body
type, so it is better to know your body first to have a perfect fit. The below
article is written by Monica Nolan, kindly read on and know how you were able to look exquisitely fitted
in your gown.
It’s your wedding day and all
eyes are on you! You have your makeup done, hair perfected, and the dress you
have been dreaming about your whole life. But… lets backtrack a little bit to
the day you picked out that wedding dress. When choosing the perfect dress for
your big day, you should embrace your body type and flatter it by trying out
different silhouettes and styles. If you don’t know your body type, both Impression Bridal
and David’s Bridal can help you
figure that out and show you suggested styles to flatter your body.
Pear Shape
If your hips are wider than your
shoulders, you are pear shaped. To compliment this body type, an elegant
ball gown style and A-line wedding dresses will look amazing, as they both
bring attention to the upper body. Halter and one shoulder tops are perfect for
bringing the focus to the top half of the dress.
Apple Shape
If your shoulders are wider than
your hips, you have an apple shape. In this case you want to draw attention away
from your shoulders and down to your bottom half. Dresses that have flared
and flowy skirts give the illusion of more balance between the upper and lower
body. A V-neck can be useful in disguising broad shoulders.
Hourglass
If you have hips and shoulders
that are similar in width and a defined waist, then you are blessed with what
is known as the classic hourglass shape. You can play up your naturally curvy
shape with a great sheath gown or other fitted dress.
Full Figured
If you are more of a full figured
woman all over, then you'll look great in an A-line or princess dress. Empire
waist dresses can also be very flattering. Flared skirts look great and give
balance with your upper body. Avoid wearing dramatic ruffles and go with light
smooth fabric instead of heavier fabric that can sometimes make a bride look
larger.
There you have it! I was enlightened
with this write up. Now, I know what’s best suited for me, having a Full
Figured body type. I hope that it helps you as well!
Happy Monday!
