Marriage as a ceremony of bonding does not have to be only between young couples; rather many older couples tie the knot as well, and so naturally the mature ladies going for marriage will want bridal gowns exclusively for people of their age. There may be some others who would want bridal dresses that are ageless and timeless, meaning they can be worn by anyone irrespective of age, race, caste and creed (not gender though!).

Bridal gowns for the older ladies can be of various types: formal, semi formal and evening gowns. Older women would want to settle for gowns that are literally tailor-made for their figure, shape and body size. Again, since a woman of any age would want to look as good as possible on a wedding day, the dress should not be too matronly. There should be style but with modesty. For this reason, it is better not to buy a bridal dress that has too much of a plunging neckline, either in the front or on the back. For the same reason, avoid going for gowns that are too short, too tight around the waist and the bust, too bright or fully backless.

Ideal bridal gowns for the older ladies can include dresses with v-necklines, strapless ones, streamline silhouettes like sheath or princess lines, non-traditional tea length styles etc. Most older women want gowns with full sleeves over which they can wear jackets. An older lady should try to wear bridal gowns that do not attract attention to those areas of the body which are not in shape like a thick waist or protruding tummy.

Older ladies would invariably want bridal gowns that provide more coverage. So naturally, the best choices would be empire waist bridal dresses for hiding any out of shape portion of the torso, strapless ones including a jacket that can cover the back and the arms, A-line and princess-line wedding gowns that suit all figure types and are in fact figure flattering.
