How to choose your bride’s dress based on the shape of your body?

You probably dreamt about the day you would get to choose your wedding dress long before your boyfriend proposed. As a child, any little girl admires brides and imagine, down to the smallest detail, what she would look like on her own wedding day. Being a bride is a dream any woman keeps close to her heart, from the very first pangs of love.

So what do we do when we are about to get married and we don’t know what dress to chose so as to fit us from all standpoints?

In the article below, we are presenting the recommendations of designer Elena Perseil on choosing your bride’s dress based on the shape of your body.

Hourglass body

Is the most harmonious silhouette and the lucky girls to have such a body have a thicker bust and thighs and a thin waist. For this type of body, designer Elena Perseil recommends a tight-fitting, siren dress. The picture below shows design Wedding Dress Valentina, which is part of the new collection of Elena Perseil.

Apple-shape body

If you have such a body type, you know that the area focus should be on is you waist. The designer’s proposal is a wedding dress with a marked waistline (to highlight your thinnest area), and in terms of fabrics, she recommends natural silk. Some of the suggestions from the new collection are: Wedding dress Megane, Wedding dress Vera.

Pear-shape body

Women with this type of body have more prominent hips and posterior. Designer Elena Perseil recommends two types of dresses:

1. A-line dresses

Which can be made of lace or natural silk. Such a design is Wedding Dress Regyna, especially created by the designer for this type of body.

2. Princess dress

Is the second design recommended for this body type. If our hips are more prominent, we want to hide them, and we can do just that wearing a princess dress, which is voluminous in the lower part (nobody will know what lays under the wide skirt, with several layers of tulle). Such a dress could be Wedding Dress Forever.

Rectangular body

This type of body needs help in the waist area. We need a marked waist and details, to draw the attention and to create a thinning impression, as well. For this type of body, we recommend a dress made of natural silk, with lace and feather details in the waist area, and flowing in the lower part, to create volume. Such a dress could be Wedding Dress Sensual, from the new collection of Elena Perseil.

Choosing our wedding dress is difficult, but this search, this rush of emotions characterising the period just before the wedding are what truly give it colour and meaning.
