Which wedding dress for a small woman?
If you make less than one meter sixty, the romantic crinoline wedding dress very close to the body or the empire wedding dress - with the waist under the chest and the bottom of the fluid dress - will suit you perfectly. Well proportioned, you will dare the glamor of a sheath wedding dress. For more elegance, with an opening in the back, but be careful not to make appear the back crease of your knee.
- Ideal: A fluid and elongated shape to grow. The princess wedding dress is the perfect illustration: without separation at the waist, it marries the shoulders and the chest and then flares slightly at the bottom.
- Avoid: Frills, shapes too large or too voluminous.
What wedding dress for a round woman?
Fleshy, you will preferably choose light and fluid wedding dresses. The muslin is the vaporous fabric par excellence. You can even try transparency overlays of tulle or organdi. A dress or skirt short and straight will also suit you. Small straps will refine the upper body. A bodice that ends in a tip and a long skirt will hide a small belly.
- The ideal: A empire-style wedding dress with a relatively straight tail. The crinoline dress, close to the body at the top with the bouffant and ample stockings, nicely mask the generous silhouettes.
- To flee: All princess style wedding dresses "Sissi" while flying and lace, pleated and sheaths that do not forgive any small belly!
What wedding dress for a woman twig?
Filiform, you will try to flesh out your silhouette by effects of over-skirts. You will embrace your size with big knots or attach a bustier with brassiere effect. Fine straps or a sleeveless dress will suit you as well.
- The ideal: The style "amazon", near the body in front and puffing in the back with its "false ass". The wedding dress "belle époque" with its bubble skirts that leave the waist: it highlights a fine waist and an extra flat belly.
- To avoid: The style "empire" of Greco-Roman inspiration, rather reserved for the generous necklines. The boat or U-shaped neck will be the most suitable for small breasts.
Some tips to choose a wedding dress adapted to its morphology
Do not hesitate to highlight your assets and take advantage of your defects.
- A dancer's neck and harness : a trapeze wedding dress with a strapless neckline in the back.
- Nice shoulders : a bare-necked wedding dress or American armholes (the collar is up and the shoulders cleared). If your shoulders are square, do not hesitate to choose wide shoulder straps.
- Graceful arms : short sleeves and long gloves.
- A pulpy breast : a bustier dress, corsetted and with whales or a décolleté in V, in heart or in square.
- A small chest : do not hesitate to choose a high worked: pearls, lace or others will create an extra volume.
- Star legs : a bridal gown opening on the side or front only if your knees allow you!
- A small size : thin shoulder straps, a square neck and not V, a length of dress at the ankle.
