What is the best dress to suit your shape?

Your wedding is the day where you wish to feel more beautiful than ever. When it comes to choosing your wedding dress it helps to have an idea of what style of dress suits your body shape and helps you emphasize your best body features.

Here are some traditional styles and a mini guide to wedding dress shopping according to general guidelines.

BALL GOWNS: The classic princess style is great for mid-height or taller brides because the contrast between the voluminous skirt and the close-cut bodice draws attention to the waistline.

MERMAID: Very feminine style and perfect for brides who want to show off their curves and great figure. As the skirt follows the line of the hips and thighs out below the knee it can restrict freedom of movement.

A-LINE: It refers to the shape of the letter A and it’s great for all body types. The style makes brides feel comfortable and confident about their bodies.

SHORT: Short styles are fitting for brides who want to make a modern statement. It’s also great for shorter women and women with broad shoulders.

SHEATH: It’s a very modern and elegant dress without being flashy. It looks best on petite or slender brides, which gently hugs the body from head to toe.
