It’s My Day! What Style Wedding Dress is Right for My Body?

Weddings might be between two people but everyone is always more on the bride. There will be a lot of attention on her gown, her shoes, and wedding accessories.


It’s a monumental day for all brides. Especially those who have been dreaming of this occasion since they were a young girl. It’s why women want a wedding dress that’s perfect for them.


Choosing your dress for such a defining moment isn’t easy. There are so many factors to consider. You have to consider your wedding theme and the venue. The sheer volume of wedding dresses to choose from can also be overwhelming. But there’s one thing that’s vital when it comes to picking your wedding dress, and that’s your body type. You need to know what silhouette fits you best. Once you know that, you have a solid foundation to start from. You can then start building a gown that complements your looks and personality. So what style of wedding dress is right for my body, you ask? This post will serve as a guide.


It’s vital that you know your body type before you start dress shopping. But if you don’t know or you fall into a gray area, the A-line is your best option. This style flatters all body silhouettes. A dress in this design has a fitted top. But it flares out into an A-shape from the waist. A-lines are perfect for pear-shaped brides and those with an hourglass figure. It also works well with a banana silhouette.


If you’re more of a banana than an apple or pear, a ball gown is the best silhouette for you. Many designers agree that the fit and flare design will give you the right curves. Ball gowns have a fitted top that can make your bust look fuller. The skirt is voluminous, which can camouflage wide hips and thighs.
