How to choose the right bridal gown for you

Getting in the dressing room with a bunch of dresses of the same size is not the most important thing about choosing a dress.

The style and the cut determine how good it looks in a person. And dressing are not the exception of course, it implies changing and looking very well till deciding which style is the right one for that picture perfect day.

Wedding dress designers recommend the style that stylizes your body the most. They also recommend a little trick when trying in the dressing room. Just put on the dress you like and get in front of the mirror, close your eyes and open them quickly. Notice where your eyes lay on first, if they look to a part of your body you don’t’ want to see, and then pick another dress.

Accessories and details have a great importance at the moment of trying the dress and how looks the whole set. So here are some recommendations to take into account before buying your bridal gown:

- For a bride who want to minimize the size of her breast it is suitable a model with minimum details on the torso and many details in the borders and the skirt. This takes the looks downwards.

- For a bride who wants to minimize her hips the dress must have more details in the torso. Short sleeves are also suitable.

- For a bride who wants her bust look bigger, must go for a dress with details on the torso in a way to attract looks to that part.

- The bride who wants to hide her belly should consider en empire style gown. This model is not tight, avoiding looks going to that problematic zone. Princess styles are stylizing and suit most body types. These have a slimming panel on the frontal and back side of the dress.

- A bride with a short neck may go for a V-neck dress to extend the neck’s length.

- Alternatively, a bride with a long neck who wants to make it look shorter will find the solution in high neck gowns like a Sabrina, bateau or a sequin stylized gown.

- For the bride who doesn’t want a dress with borders we recommend a heart-shaped dress instead of those of short cut along the chest.

- For a bride with thick arms she should avoid short-sleeves or wavy leaves. Long sleeves or ribbon-like sleeves are more recommendable in this case.

- If the bride wants to minimize her shoulders she should avoid long or wavy sleeves.

- Make sure the color chosen matches and smoothes your skin tone. According to wedding experts, choosing the wrong color makes every defect of your face come out. White and light colors go for brides with fair and tanned tones, while the shinny whites and fresh colors go for skins with pink tone.
