Choosing A Figure Flattering Wedding Dress

Spead the word...

Wedding dresses come in a variety of styles but one area to focus on when trying to find a gown that is best for your shape is the waistline. You can find waists that sit high or just below the hip. What you decide on should be based on your body shape.

If you have a short waist, consider a basque waisted dress. This dress has a V-shape at the waist. The point of the V typically falls about three to five inches below the natural waistline, giving the appearance of a longer torso.

If you have a small chest and are slim, consider an empire waist. An empire waist starts just below the bust line and has been seen throughout the fashion industry lately.

If you have a voluptuous figure, consider going with a side drape dress. This will decrease the look of a tummy bulge and provide slenderizing results. The side drape waist slants diagonally, ending an inch or two below the hip.

If your hips are wide, the dropped waist is good because it will lengthen the middle and disguise bulges. Dropped waist gowns have a waist that hits near the belly button.

Whether you are short or long and slender, consider a column gown. It helps a short bride appear taller and accentuates a long and lean bride. The column gown is silhouette free and essentially falls straight down the body without hugging any would be curves.

Lastly, if you are long waisted or have a great hourglass figure, go with a natural waist. This waist rests between the rib cage and the hips and can shorten a long waist or accentuate the perfect curvy figure.

Now that you know what design style works best for your body the rest is in the taste. There are an array of wedding dresses in each style that vary by embellishing, colors, accents, and material. Whatever dress you choose, know that you will look beautiful on your special day!
