How to choose a wedding dress according to your body type

No matter how beautiful a wedding dress may seem, you may be disappointed when trying it on: not all brides look the same in wedding dress styles. And even if you really liked the dress in the catalog, the picture in the mirror may be significantly different. The sellers in our salon will offer you the perfect models of current wedding dresses.

In order to determine your body type, you need to put on tight underwear, stand in front of the mirror and evaluate the parameters of the silhouette. The options may be as follows:

  • “Rectangle” – the waist is not pronounced, the shoulders and hips are approximately the same width. The figure is often athletic, the legs are slender, the curves are minimally pronounced.
  • O-silhouette or “apple” – the waistline is not pronounced, the chest and stomach stand out the most. The hips are often narrow, the legs are slender and beautiful.
  • X-silhouette or “hourglass” – a pronounced waist, the hips and shoulders are approximately the same volume. Often, girls with this type of figure are not distinguished by their thinness.
  • “Triangle” or “pear” – narrow shoulders with fairly wide hips. The waistline is pronounced, the chest is of medium size and the buttocks are prominent.
  • V-silhouette or “inverted triangle” – narrow hips and inexpressive buttocks with fairly wide shoulders and prominent chest. As a rule, slender legs.

     

    It is important to choose the style of the wedding dress so as to balance the silhouette as much as possible, emphasize the advantages and disguise the disadvantages. Therefore, stylists recommend the following types of dresses for different types of figures:

    Brides with a rectangular figure need to visually create a waistline, so the emphasis should be on it. Choose a wide or medium-width belt, add volume in the chest and hips. Ruffles, flounces, lace and folds on the skirt will help to add femininity to the image. Straight-cut dresses with a peplum are good. The neckline is round or V-shaped.
