Wedding dress models: what they are and how to choose them

Mermaid, princess, ball gowns or frock coat, the list of models of wedding dresses is really long, but what are their characteristics, and why should we prefer one model above all? Read on!

Empire wedding dresses

The empire dress is a dress with a very marked high waist, just below the bust. It will suit you very well if you have a small chest but not necessarily if you have a generous chest. This type of dress will allow you to erase your hips by highlighting your chest. These wedding dresses go very well with women with a pyramid body, that is to say, that the upper body is narrower than the lower body.

Princess wedding dresses

It looks like the ball gown, but the shape of the princess dress is more like a pyramid, while the ball gown is more rounded. No need to peak very high to wear this kind of dress, provided you opt for a model with little flare on the bottom. The princess wedding dress will make you the prettiest bride of the year if you make sure to choose it in a beautiful material and with a shape adapted to your height. The princess dress is a pretty fitted dress at the top, and more flared at the bottom. It hides the shapes at the bottom of the body: the hips, thighs, etc.

Mermaid dresses

The mermaid wedding dress is a very tight and fitted dress that flares from the knee only. They are reserved for tall people with a slender figure. It is not the most common model in wedding dresses. They are suitable for hourglass figures.

Ball gowns

The ball gown is a very voluminous wedding dress. You should absolutely not wear this type of dress if you are small and have a small chest, because it will not enhance you at all. On the other hand, if you are tall and have a very marked size, this model will suit you. The Wedding dresses ball gown will rebalance the V silhouettes because it has a very flared shape at the bottom and will give a visually less shoulder-like impression.

Sheath wedding dresses

Sheath-type wedding dresses are dresses very close to the bust’s body at the hips and end in a straight skirt from the hips to the feet. The sheath dress emphasizes the forms and refines the silhouette.

Find the dress that surprises you, that gives you confidence and in which you feel comfortable. You will absolutely take your breath away on the big day in the wedding dress of your dreams.
