Wedding Dress Shapes & Silhouettes
Before you venture out looking for a wedding dress, it is vital you understand the ''bridal jargon''. Have a basic understanding of the basic shapes or silhouettes so that when your dress designer or stylist refers to a specific style, you understand.
Empire: A high waistline & seam underneath the bust.
A-Line: An A-Line or Princess Shape dress has fitted vertical seams jogging from the shoulders down to the flared shirt, generating an "A" shape & can be created from a variety of fabrics that include lace, satin, & chiffon.
Sheath: Straight-line, fitted dress from the shoulders to the ankles.
Ball Gown: It is a traditional wedding dress with a fitted bodice & a floor-length skirt. Usually worn in a more formal setting such as a church.

Mermaid: A narrow fitted dress designed to highlight a bride''s curves, with the bottom flaring out like that of a mermaid.
Strapless: As the name suggests, it is a wedding dress without any straps.
It is important that you pick the right length for your wedding dresses. Tall brides can look taller in long gowns, while short brides can look shorter in a long gown. The climate, season, & the time of day are other factors that will decide how comfortable you feel in a long gown on your wedding day. Pick the length of the gown wisely taking in to consideration the aforementioned factors.

Colour of the Dress
Gone are the days where the bride would wear only white on her wedding day. Today, ladies can experiment with other colors. Pick colours that best complement your skin tone; it could be any colour ranging from diamond white to ivory to champagne to actual colors like pink, blue, or red. Pick the color you feel most stunning in & that brings out the glow in you.
