WHAT WEDDING DRESS IS RIGHT FOR MY BODY - Torstaina, 28.11.2019 klo 03:35
What wedding dress is right for my body?
Everyone wants to feel their best on their wedding day, so there's a lot of pressure on finding the perfect dress.
Buying a wedding dress means you need to figure out what your body type is, and which areas you want to accentuate.
If you have a curvier figure, you could try a mermaid, trumpet, fishtail, or a dropped waist dress- all of these make curves pop.
Gym freaks can show off their impressive muscle definition in a backless or strapless dress.
If you love your legs, show them off in a short or tea length dress- this is also great if you have a killer pair of shoes for the big day.
Finding the dress for you is just about feeling comfortable and knowing which body parts you want to expose and which you want to keep under wraps.
From designer to high street, we've rounded up some more affordable but just as beautiful options.
1. Lace Wedding Dress
Looking for a short-sleeved lace wedding dress? Get yourself to Monsoon.
This guipure lace features sophisticated grosgrain panels and a figure-complimenting silhouette.
A gorgeous puddle train can be hooked up with a button and loop, so you can have your fun on the dance floor.
Meghan Geo Lace Maxi Dress features a stylish cut-away back, that will make your back-shots worth a million.
2. Embellished Wedding Dress
If you love bead, sequins and ornate designs, then this sleeveless Milly bridal gown by Phase Eight is perfect for you.
It's a unique design, with a flattering blouson waist, keyhole back detail and shimmering 1920s-inspired beading that goes all the way down its full snowy skirt.
This wedding dress was made to be accessorised with diamonds. Sparkles galore.
3. Cold Shoulder Wedding Dress
Sometimes less is more, as proven by this unembellished satin Sana dress by Ghost.
Crafted from heavy satin, this V-neckline gown, in Ghost’s signature bias cut, features a cold shoulder design with straps and a bow detailing.
As you walk, the liquid satin will fall gracefully, taking your husband or wife's breath away.
4. Short Sleeve Wedding Dress
Phase Eight’s Poppy dress is a best-selling design that combines exquisite craftsmanship and a contemporary wedding dress silhouette.
The sheer back and sleeves showcase the lace embroidery beautifully, elevating the simple straight shape.
There’s also a thick grosgrain waistband tie to accentuate your waist.
Our favourite feature of this pearl dress is the classy high neck cut.
Add a lace veil too to match the beautiful mini train.
5. Bardot Wedding Dress
Ooze classic elegance on your special day with this Bardot number from Chichi London.
For under £200, this flowing maxi-length dress is an unbelievable steal - from the fitted bodice and waist to the embellished fold over bardot and pure white colour tone.
Accessorise this traditional dress with a sentimental, perhaps ‘borrowed’, necklace and some flowers in your hair.
6. Bias-cut Wedding Dress
Get to Ghost for an ivory dress with an ultra-elegant cowl neck cut design.
This floor-length gown is crafted from a beautiful, heavy satin, with softly capped sleeves and a subtle trail.
It’s the height of elegance, combined with sophistication in its simplicity.
Wear no jewellery and neutral make-up to revel in the beauty of minimalism.
7. Long Sleeved Wedding Dress
If you have a little extra in your wedding dress budget then we suggest this breathtakingly ornate Needle & thread gown.
Finished with a layered tulle hem, this figure-skimming design is detailed with ruffles, a high neckline and crystal flower buttons.
Show off some fabulous shoes with this midi-length option.
8. Short But Sweet Wedding Dress
Never considered having a short wedding dress? We're about to change your mind with this Phase Eight design.
Crafted in lace with a scalloped bardot style neckline, this flared gown has a boned bodice for an elegant fit and is finished with a satin waist tie. The eyelash lace sleeves are stunning too.
This one's ideal for a beach wedding or just one at the height of summer - you'll be comfortable and glamorous in warmer weather.
