The silhouette refers to the shape of the dress. Follow this simple guide to bring you closer to your perfect wedding dress.
The ultimate full skirt, this dramatic silhouette is very forgiving on the lower body & the slim cut bodice accentuates the waist. Ideal for most body types, petites be careful it doesn’t overwhelm your small frame.
Straight slender lines have a lengthening effect. This silhouette radiates a simple modern feel & will show off your figure. Great for petites & hourglass shapes.
The high waist design of the Empire silhouette starts just under the bust with a continuous flow of the fabric right to the hem. It adds length & skims over the tummy & hips making it a great choice for brides who want to camouflage these areas.
Great silhouette to show off curves. Fitted on the body & then kicks out at the knees to a fuller skirt. Fit and Flare is similar to the mermaid, this skirt tends to flare from the low hip. Both fantastic for slender & hourglass shapes.
The balanced lines of this silhouette resemble the letter ‘A’. This will cinch in at the waist & camouflage hips. Works well with structured or flowing fabrics. Can be a ‘full A-line’ or a ‘modified/slim A-line’ which will fit closer to the hips. Ideal for all body types.
