Every bride's dream is to look like a princess on her wedding day. However, everyone has her own idea of what a princess should look like, which is why there are so many different styles of wedding dresses. Before you start shopping, acquaint yourself with the different styles of wedding dresses and what will look the most flattering on your body.
The classic silhouette is the Ball Gown, with a fitted bodice and voluminous skirt. This silhouette is most suitable for formal and traditional weddings, but the type of sleeve and neckline you choose may make it more or less formal-looking. The fit of the dress makes it ideal for hiding a heavier bottom; however it may make a large bust appear even larger and it may engulf a shorter stature.
An A-line gown is more versatile than a ball gown, because it can be suitable for both a casual and a formal affair. Like the Ball Gown, the A-Line or Princess is fitted to the bodice but then it flows out fluidly to the bottom hem. This type of silhouette is also flattering on almost any body type. The skirt floats away from the body to hide anything you do not want known, but it is also fitted enough to accentuate and create curves where needed.
While there are many other styles of wedding dresses, the Ball Gown and the A-Line are the two most classic and most popular silhouettes. As you shop, do not be afraid to try on different styles out of your comfort zone.
