Do you think that there is nothing more complicated than choosing a handbag, shoes and dress that would harmoniously connect with each other? So you have not yet had a choice of a wedding dress according to your figure. Although in most cases this outfit is worn only once in a lifetime, it is difficult to choose.

As you know, the clothes that fit perfectly on the figure are best suited. For wedding dresses, this rule fits perfectly. Therefore, it is worth choosing it starting from the features of the figure and its type. This will greatly facilitate the task of choosing the style of the dress. For a more objective assessment, you should turn to friends for help.

Sheath wedding dress

Hourglass

An hourglass-like figure is characterized by a narrow and well-defined waistline that separates sensual breasts from attractive hips. The shoulders are about the same width as the hips. The owners of such a figure are Scarlett Johansson or Christina Hendricks.

Any style will suit girls with such a figure. Graceful shapes emphasize fitted models, such as a mermaid.

A good option for a sand figure is a dress in the style of a princess with a corset, in which the waist will be well emphasized. But when choosing a style, keep in mind that it is better to highlight only one part of the body - the chest, hips or waist.

With low growth, a dress should choose a model with a high waist, and for tall brides, a low waist and a fluffy skirt remain. The presence of extra pounds serves as an occasion to choose an A-line dress, for which it is possible to hide unnecessarily lush hips and highlight the chest area.

Another way to highlight the chest is a V-shaped neckline, drapery type "waterfall" or "swing", abundantly decorated bodice. A simple and smooth top, in which a V-neck is excluded, will help to visually reduce the chest.

Fabric and decor

The miniature waistline is well emphasized by a belt decorated with decorative elements (beads, rhinestones). Please note that it is better to refuse the abundance of ruffles and flounces.

Soft, well-fitting fabrics (silk crepe) are not permissible for such a figure. What can not be said about taffeta and satin - just what you need. They not only drape well and retain their shape, but also minimize the bending of the body. Of course, do not forget about exquisite lace.

Rectangle or Sports

In a rectangular figure, the shoulders do not differ much in width from the volume at the waist and hips; there are no pronounced bends. Such a figure can still be called sports, but it is inherent in the charming Catherine Middleton, the goal-oriented Cameron Diaz and the decisive Gwyneth Paltrow.

Dress Style

It is on the dress that the task lies in isolating the chest and hips, separating them from the waist. Soft, but distinct outlines of the body's bends should appear in the image.

The most appropriate are corsets, a magnificent bottom and a silhouette created by the type of the letter A. Giving maximum volume to the skirt is a win-win option for creating the illusion of a very thin waist. High growth can serve as a reason for introducing a low waist into the style of the dress. With low growth, such a design move will only make the image heavier.

Without that, excessively broad shoulders do not need additional emphasis at all, which can add a straight neckline. You can not say about the round shape of the neckline or the universal V-shaped, which will make the bust line and even more slender neck more expressive and already seductively curved.

Decor and fabric

Semi-fitted bodices are prescribed for girls “in the body”, but thin brides can be added to their image with elegantly trimmed bodices and skirts. Any decision regarding the choice of decorative elements will have the right to exist - beads, ruffles, frills, lace ...

Ruffle Wedding Dress For A Rectangle

There are no special prohibitions on the issue of fabrics. Any fabric will look good on a bride with a figure of the "rectangle" type: soft and tight, heavy and dense.

To highlight bends and shapes, pleating can be included, for which soft fabrics with good drapery and the ability to hold a given shape will be more appropriate.

Apple or circle

Full, expressive chest, slender legs, but slightly noticeable waist. Accumulation of excess weight usually occurs in the chest and waist. A stellar example of such a figure is presented in the image of Jennifer Hudson, the Cate Blanchet is somewhat somewhat worse.

In any case, the dress should highlight slender legs and magnificent breasts, not allowing others to pay attention to the waist. Outfits with a deep neckline are capable of this, as far as decency of wedding fashion allows. The top may not, it should even be decorated. Too full hands can be covered with a sleeve or a cloak.

The dresses made in the A-silhouette, preferably with a corset for modeling the waist, will be relevant.

Categorically it is impossible to choose models that emphasize the natural waistline or have an understated waistline. The silhouette should be light and flowing, decorated with a weightless tulle or lace.

Decor and fabric

If breasts are naturally expressive, nature cannot sin to decorate them. But within the limits of the measure, so that the image does not turn out too overloaded. But it is better not to decorate the waist to avoid the excessive attention of others.

Lightness and airiness are the main requirements that a fabric for a wedding dress should meet. The best option would be an organza or tulle with their characteristic flowing ability. Jacquard and dense silk fiber say categorically no.

Inverted triangle

A T-shaped physique is characterized by the fact that the width of the shoulders exceeds the width of the hips, which themselves are small. The legs are most often slender, and the waist is thin. For a good example, just look at the physique type of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Angelina Jolie.

Body shape

Inverted Triangle Shape

The goal when choosing a dress is to distract attention from the shoulders, so rich trim on the bodice and models with bare shoulders is not permissible. As always, the V-neckline, corset and skirt with a good volume will be appropriate. Thus, a silhouette in the form of a trapeze or a ball gown are win-win options.

Outfits can be both short and long. The bride can choose a transform dress with a full skirt.

Low waist refers to strict prohibitions.

With a great desire to choose a dress with sleeves, only one option is possible - long or 3/4. Other sleeve options (short, lush) will inevitably draw attention to the broad shoulders. It will not be superfluous to emphasize the waist, only the trim should be located along the line of the silhouette.

Fabric and decor

Any jewelry - a place on the waistline, the only way to draw attention from wide shoulders.

Tight fabrics are inappropriate for this type of figure, but organza, tulle and lace are recommended and even obligatory.

Puffy Skirt Wedding Dress

Triangle or pear

Wide hips against the background of fragile shoulders, as, for example, with Jennifer Lopez or Kelly Clarkson - this is a peep pear. The lower part of such a figure is more than seductive, and the waist and shoulders are miniature.

Shapes for a sinful figure

Only those outfits that visually reduce the bottom and give volume to the top will be appropriate. Therefore, you need to choose a neckline designed by the type of “boat”, wide apart or lowered straps. Sleeves in the form of "small lamps" look good.

It is better if the bodice is trimmed in a horizontal direction. The skirt should hide the hips, while it can not be lush and stiff (this applies to the fabric). A tight and grooved silhouette is definitely not your option.

Decor and fabric

The neckline area, richly and richly decorated, will inevitably draw attention to the face, and not to the hips, which already stand out quite enough. The bottom of the dress, and the skirt itself, the path will remain simple and smooth.

For a skirt, the choice is clear - something soft and flowing, such as silk. You can add bright colors to the belt area or even choose a dress of saturated, rich color.

    I am a rectangle. I really want the Little Mermaid style. But, no matter how you measure, they do not go to me, unfortunately. The truth is written. I will choose a flared dress.
