Silhouettes

The best dress for a bride is one that she treasures both at the time of wedding and long afterwards. A bridal gown may be the only dress you will ever own that will be custom- fitted to you. The luxury of wearing a gown with a perfect, personal fit is a pleasure not often encountered in ready- to – wear world. The suit is a modern silhouette that is always finished with a jacket or a coat. The empire silhouette is a high –waist design with the skirt falling from directly under the bust line. It is known as a neoclassical style of the early 18th century.
The A-line and similar princess line gowns are less restricting than sheath styles. Equally fitted through the shoulders and bodice, above waistline the gown begins to flare gently away from the body down to the hem. The sheath is a svelte alternative, a less traditional choice that is excellent for physically fit brides. A sheath is often finished with a detachable train.
The ball gown is the most traditional bridal shape, evoking romantic images that range from Cinderella. The basic ball gown has a big, full bell-shaped shirt, supported by petticoats or hoops, a bell shape and a fitted bodice. The ball gown is the universal style and its basic silhouette can be reworked to flatter every figure.In fact, most brides ordered or made their bridal gown with the intention of having it redesigned for a later use.
