Short wedding dress with a full skirt

Among modern fashion trends, fluffy skirts are absent. And it’s a pity, because they give a special femininity and grace. Suffice it to recall the outfits of Audrey Hepburn of the 50s. A luxurious long ball gown turns the bride into a princess from a fairy tale, but today we will talk about short, lush wedding dresses, which, of course, will be a more practical choice for the summer.

The bride in such a dress can appear in a very different way: a tender romantic girl, a sexy seductress, a playful teenager, and this is largely determined by the style, choice of fabric and the dress's style. Short wedding dresses with a full skirt are becoming increasingly popular, and with each season there are more and more stylish and original models.

In wedding fashion, the volume of the skirt of short dresses is represented by designers in a variety of ways. Therefore, do not buy the first one that catches your eye. Indeed, the style of a fluffy skirt of short styles is a real kaleidoscope of types of decor. In design collections, you can find not only modern options, but also new interpretations of retro forms.

To create short wedding dresses with a full skirt, couturiers turned to ballet, more precisely, to ballet tutus - layered, voluminous and at the same time airy. The skirt in such models consists of several layers that use chiffon, guipure, lace, mesh, etc.She perfectly emphasizes slender legs and a thin waist, gives the image of the bride romance and fragility.

Retro style has left its mark on wedding dresses. The most relevant examples were models of the early 60s with a corset bodice, underlined waist and a fluffy skirt with a petticoat. It was a petticoat, not a crinoline, as was typical for the 60s.

In such a dress, even a fairly well-fed bride will look slim and elegant due to the sharp contrast of the waist and a full skirt. Additional elements of the retro style can be short sleeves-lanterns, a classic collar in the shape of a bow or ruffle, a belt of the same or contrasting color and, of course, short gloves.

Along with the soft silhouette of the tutu, the couturiers also offer a more rigid outline, which is more typical for architectural forms. A skirt in this style resembles a clear geometric figure, as if drawn on a ruler, and although it somewhat echoes the retro style, it looks emphasized in a modern, stylish and even daring way, not at all contributing to creating the image of a tender young lady - it is rather self-confident a woman who knows her worth.

But the model in the style of baby doll - a girl-doll, which has become one of the hits of wedding fashion, focuses just on “childishness”, naivety, innocence and, at the same time, romantic femininity - the dream of a real man, as fashion designers believe.

The wedding dress of such a doll-girl is created in full accordance with our ideas on how to dress the doll: emphasize the waist with a tight bodice, but make the skirt as fluffy and airy as possible. And here we use chiffon, pleated, guipure, as well as many decorative details in the form of lace and ruffles, bows, ribbons, rhinestones, pearls, embroidery - our doll will be the most beautiful!

A-silhouette also focuses on the harmony and lightness of the image, which is facilitated by airy chiffon, flowing silk or lace lace, decorating not only a skirt, but also a corset; of them also sew a translucent bolero.

Dresses with a train create an impression of regality and grandeur, emphasize the solemnity of the moment. Although the train is more often used in wedding dresses with a long skirt, thanks to the original idea of ​​a couturier, it can become a highlight of the image of the bride in a short fluffy dress. The train is ideal for a photo shoot: it can be effectively draped and make stunning pictures.

This modern model allows you to combine the seemingly incompatible: luxury and practicality, as well as make a lasting impression on the guests. In fact, at a ceremony in the registry office, the bride appears in a long dress, and at the wedding party she is already demonstrating her slender legs in full under a fluffy short skirt.

The originality of this model lies in a removable skirt, which organically merges with the lower, shorter, or may have a cut in the front. For the bride, this is perhaps the most comfortable option, especially if she likes a long fluffy skirt on the floor, but at the same time she wants to feel more free during a wedding banquet. She can dance her first dance with her newly minted spouse in a long fluffy skirt, and then get rid of her and dance herself in plenty in the same magnificent, but short one.

Variations of volumetric skirt are great. Her splendor is gained through drapery, quilling, applications, volumetric elements, a special cut. However, see for yourself.

Pleated multilayer skirts, especially from translucent fabric, create a feeling of airiness and, thanks to vertical lines, add growth without increasing volume, and the play of light and shadow in pleated pleats makes the outfit even more advantageous.

All these elements of decorating a wedding dress look especially impressive on a fluffy skirt, creating volume, but at the same time, not making it heavier. They can be made of the same fabric or of lace, mesh, etc.

Such styles emphasize the femininity of the bride. In such a dress the bride will definitely be remembered for a long time.

Thanks to the fringe sewn in several rows, the fluffy skirt with each movement of its owner literally catches his eye - and this is not only a matter of the eccentricity of the outfit, but also the spectacular dynamics of the fringe.

Roses are a very frequent element of decorating a wedding dress. Embroidered roses adorn the bodice and / or skirt, small roses - the neckline of the dress and the wreath of the bride; huge volumetric roses made of fabric are often used as the main accent on a belt or peplum.

If we are talking about summer wedding dresses, then chiffon, silk, organza, tulle and other types of light fabrics firmly hold priority among fabrics. For a winter wedding, the choice often falls on velvet, satin, brocade, taffeta, and rich embroidery with pearls or silk is quite appropriate here.

The white color of a wedding dress not only varies today with various shades of this symbolic color of purity, but also gives way to a wide range of pastel colors (pink, blue, lemon, mint, etc.). Along with these colors, brides seeking to show off their originality often choose red - the traditional color of holiday dresses in Russia.

Increasingly, the official registration in the registry office is followed by a wedding, and not every wedding dress can be considered wedding, which is characterized by emphasized modesty. Contrary to Orthodox tradition, many wedding dresses open their shoulders or have a large neckline. To give chastity to the wedding, you can use a bolero, wrap or large scarf. It is also desirable that the length of the skirt is to the knees.

But for a wedding in a rather narrow circle, you can give free rein to imagination and choose the most original and even daring style that allows you to demonstrate all the advantages of the figure.

A short wedding dress with a full skirt requires elegant shoes with heels at least 6 cm high.

The best option is, of course, a boat, and so that the legs are not so tired, it is desirable that the toe portion is wide enough, and the heel is stable, of medium thickness. Mandatory stockings of a shade under the color of the skin, but the garter should hide the hem of the skirt.

Jewelry should be used in moderation; their excess will add vulgarity to the image. It is better to prefer a luxurious diadem decorated with flowers, pearls or stones a rim to which a veil is attached. A traditional veil can be replaced with a small elegant hat with a veil.
