Wedding Dress Silhouettes

My favorite dress style is the ball gown. Perfect for a princess in a fairy tale!

*Ballgown*
Full skirt with a fitted bodice and waist. Best for: Pear shapes, full figures, and tall, slim builds.


Dropped
Dips below the natural waistline and sits on the hips. Best for: Hourglass figures.

Empire Waist
Small, scooped bodice and high waistline with a slender skirt. Best for: Figures with thick waists.

Mermaid
Fitted to the knee, then flared. Best for: Slim, tall builds.
I dislike this silhouette the most! eehhh!


Sheath
Narrow, body-conscious style that hugs the bust, waist, and hips. Best for: Slim, tall builds and petite figures.

Basque
Dips below the natural waistline and forms a "V". Best for: Pear shapes.
