Flattering Elegance: How to Choose a Wedding Gown that Perfectly Complements Your Body Shape!

The big day is coming along fast, have you selected your dress? The wedding gown is always one of the key features of the event. This can only mean that it should be perfect. Now you might argue that there is nothing perfect under the sun. However, it is possible to have that wedding gown that makes your event the point of reference whenever one mentions a great wedding.

It goes without saying that the gown is that which accentuates the beauty of your body type. There are women who go the extra mile to shed off a bit of weight for their wedding. This is also highly encouraged but if you do not have the time to do it- do not force yourself. Here are some tips on how to select the best wedding gown for your body type.

Pear-shaped body

These are the people whose hip region is wider than the bust. For such a body shape, the finest gowns gradually flare out in an A-formation. It highlights the narrowness of the midsection and floats away from the hips and thighs. An off-shoulder collar is really tricky for any body shape but then for pear-shapes, it tends to work almost all the time.

Hour-glass

hourglass

 

The hourglass ladies are those whose bust and hip regions are pretty much the same size. The goal of the gown in this case will be to enlarge the face slightly and display your neck without showing too much cleavage. The narrow midsection should also be highlighted, and this is possible if you get the aforementioned dress for pear-shaped bodies. To accentuate your face go for a dress with an elegant neckline and if you take a strapless gown (off-shoulder) it should have a slight dip along the neckline.

Plus-size

Long gone are the days when plus-sized women could not get elegant wedding gowns in the shops. You can make your size work for you. This is possible if the dress is too tight or too loose. An empire dress whose skirt begins just under the bust and flows out gradually is perfect. Ensure that the empire seam is not starting on the chest and that there are no pleats on the fabric otherwise, it will look like a maternity piece. If too loose, the dress will make the body look more prominent.

Apple-shape

The hip and bust regions are the same size with no defined waistline. The dress should not emphasize this fact. The best part to emphasize is the neckline. It will call attention to the upper region more. Add stunning jewelry, and you will not have to worry about people focusing too much on your belly area.

Be Selective With Your Wedding Dress

Who does not want to be gorgeous and beautiful at the most important occasion in their life? Wedding is such an event of anybody’s life when everybody wants to look good. Without a perfect wedding dress, a bride won’t get her ultimate look. You need to select an outfit which suits your body best. You may be perplexed by a dress on a hanger but it may not look so good on your. It may be not from a high fashion world but it needs to look best on you. Finding out a perfect wedding dress is the real challenge for a bride. It’s better to devote a considerable amount of time for this search on your own and let others involve for rest of arrangements.

First and foremost you need to be sure about your body shape. Whether you belong to hourglass, D-Shape, Pear-Shape, Full-Figured, Petite, Tall and Thin, Broad Shoulders, Full Breasts, and Full Arms you need to decide first while selecting your bridal gown.   If you are looking for a dress that really makes a statement of style, be careful while selecting your dress. Most brides want to look different with their wedding dress. Follow the tips to get the best and look unique:

  • Focus On The Theme Of Wedding:

Apart from being selective according to your figure, you need to follow the theme of your wedding. If your approach is traditional, you need to go for traditional wedding dress. If you follow a modern theme, you need to look modern through your attire also. Wedding dresses for both the bride and the groom must complement the décor of the place.

  • Consider The Season Of Your Wedding:

It’s better to consider the season of your wedding and plan to wear accordingly. Moreover, the time is also a factor. If it’s a day ceremony, plan according to that. It won’t be a good idea to wear a bright and very rich kind of a dress. It’s better to go for sophisticated one.

  • Give Priority To Your Personality:

Whatever the look may be but you should give priority to your personality. It’s better to choose a dress that suits with your personality enhancing your beauty as well. A normal bride can never be comfortable with an extremely fashionable dress or vis-e vis. Wedding dress should not uncomfort your gesture that matters most. You need to be smiling and attending to the guests and a dress should not be a constraint for that.

Retro-Inspired Wedding Gowns Offer a Touch of Vintage Appeal

Getting inspired by the fashions of other decades can be fun – from the “big shoulder” silhouette of the 1980s, to the delicate embroidered and pleated frocks of the 1940s. If you’re exploring wedding style options, looking at the retro-inspired wedding gowns on this page may give you a little creative energy and help you come up with a cohesive theme – from engagement rings to wedding decor ideas  to your white wedding dress – that will make your wedding day unforgettable
Inspired by the Eighties

A strong shoulder is one of the most distinctive signatures of 80s-inspired fashion. 80s style icons, such as the devilish Alexis Carrington of Dynasty, (played by the raven-haired actress, Joan Collins) used the strong shoulder silhouette to look sexy and powerful.

This type of bridal dress look definitely needs the right hair and makeup – a lot of volume at the crown will work well for wedding hair, as it will help to balance the look, and a swipe of blush high on the cheekbones will set off the unique lines of a strong shoulder wedding gown, such as the style shown above.
If you’re a student of fashion through the decades, why not go for high-style Eighties drama as you walk down the aisle? Not for the meek, this sensational, super-glamorous look is sure to highlight your confidence, bravado, and chic. To get the Alexis Carrington look, go for defined eyes, penciled brows, and a true crimson lip, such as Loreal’s classic Drumbeat Red.
Inspired by The Fifties

Fashions featuring retro details or silhouettes will evoke different emotions, depending on which decade they represent; in the case of the Fifties, innocence, candy-box prettiness, and wholesome, healthy beauty will be highlighted in classic gowns with fitted waists and full skirts. Structured bodices are very 1950s, and so are filmy tulle skirts, wide sash belts, and brocade or lace fabrics.
Floral appliques (such as those found on the gown shown above) are also so very 1950s. To highlight your pin-up charm on your wedding day, use hot rollers to build silky volume into your hair, and style your ‘do in loose, sexy waves that are still under control – Marilyn Monroe is a great style icon for this look. Lips can be cherry-red, hot pink, or bright coral – use your coloring to find the best shade. A fresh-scrubbed look with a vibrant, cheery lip color will be the perfect balance of glamour and 1950s innocence.
Forties-Inspired Elegance

Delicate embroidery, feminine shoulder straps, and sleek, fitted style through the bodice are pure 1940s – pleating was also a feature on many evening dresses from that decade. The white wedding dress shown above offers many details than evoke this elegant era…the look is pure sophistication, and it needs few accessories or extra adornments.
To showcase your beauty on your wedding day, while keeping the 1940s theme in mind, go for sensual smoky eyes that are lined and shadowed in charcoal grey. The rest of your makeup should take a backseat – peachy-pink lips and cheeks will provide a neutral backdrop for sultry eye makeup. Finish your look with two coats of high-quality mascara – Lancome’s Definicils is a great choice.
Your Wedding Dress Will Set the Theme…
Once you’ve come up with a retro-inspired wedding dress, your wedding theme can reflect the charm and appeal of that decade or era. A Forties-inspired gown might inspire a romantic, luxurious wedding with elegant foods, cocktails from the 1940s, and delicate wedding favours and wedding invitations. An 80s-style celebration might be brighter and bolder, with a touch of excess and glitz that evokes the over-the-top spirit of the decade. Whatever you do – have fun with it, and enjoy your special day!
