Can a cheap plus size wedding dress actually make you look 10 pounds thinner? You be it can! It's as simple as knowing your body shape.
Actually, if you dress with styles that compliment your shape, anyone can accentuate their best features for optimal results. And this applies to wedding gowns as well.
Whether you are a plus size woman or not, choosing the right cut on a wedding gown can and will make you look thinner. So how does this work? The first thing that needs to be done is to identify your body shape, once you have done this, the rest is a piece of cake!
Do you have a smaller shoulder and chest than your hips? In other words, if you were to look at the front of your body from the middle of your neck to the upper part of your thigh, does it look like a triangle? If this is you, then the best wedding dress for you would have made of soft material with embellishments and interesting details at the neckline. Ideally a ruffle or something that keeps your eye up, but moving back and forth. Towards the bottom, the best design would also be softer with perpendicular asymmetrical pattern just below the hip.
Do you have a short waist, a rounded profile and not much difference between the measurements of your bust waist and hips? In other words, if you were to look at yourself from the front from the middle of your neck to the top of your thighs, you would look like a squat 8. If this is your shape, then you would look best with stiffer fabrics with interesting textures. The best neckline for you is a V or wide neck. If you want a fuller dress on the bottom look for one that has some type of gathering on it that is asymmetrical in nature. Also you will look good in those gorgeous coat over the dress looks, especially if it has a soft collar or no collar.
Do you have hip and shoulders that are in line with one another and your waist is at least 6 inches smaller than your bust and hips? in other words, if you were to look at yourself from the front could you run two boards in a vertical line from you shoulders to your hips and not have to move them in or out at the top or bottom. Yet, there is a definite indentation at the waist? If this is you then just about any neckline will work. A more fitted look is appropriate and will show off your curves. You will also look good in a lace jacket overlay. A drop waist and slim A-line plus size wedding gown will look best on you.
Do you have a straight shoulder line and a fairly straight angular figure? Is there a difference of at least 7 inches between your waist & hip measurements? In other words does your body from shoulders to the top of your thighs look like an upside down W? If this is you, then the best plus size wedding dress for you is one that breaks up and softens that strong shoulder line. You also need to stay away from bulky fabrics. A wrapped look is best on you or even a shawl collar. You can also wear a halter style or scopped neck beautifully.
Do you have a large bust that is fuller than your hips, with a flatter bottom? In other words is the top your body a flag and the rest a pole? If this describes your shape, then you should look for deep V and wide open neck lines that do not show too much. Concentrate on fitted dresses that are flared below the hips. Look for dresses that have embellishments distributed evenly and stay away from ones that have heavy detail around the bust. A dress with a gorgeous drain or a simple all sheath with scattered sparkles would be good for you.
Is your waist at least 10 inches smaller than your bust and hips? In other words, look at your body from the front, does it resemble an 8? Rounded on the top and bottom with a noticeable waistline? You need to chose softer fabrics and avoid stubborn angled wedding gowns. A wrapped look is also good for you, but you can get away with ruffles and flounces as long as they are concentrated below the hip. Avoid a squared neckline and go for a fitted look that shows off your waist. A nice scoop neck and princess seaming will look great on you.
Do you have broader shoulders and narrows hips, but not so much difference between your waist and hip measurements ? In other words does the upper part of your body to the top of your thighs look like an upside down triangle? If this is you then stiffer fabrics and interesting straps, halter tops and scooped necklines will look good on you. You can also afford to have a fuller skirt at the hips. You can also get away with interesting textures and embellishments at the hips and all the way down to the bottom of your bridal gown. A longer, fuller train will also flatter your shape.
Once you understand your body shape, and you get your hands on the best sources for discount wedding dresses, it is so easy to find a cheap plus size wedding dress that will save you hundreds of dollars and make you look drop dead gorgeous as you walk down the isle!
