Wedding Dress Styles

If you are on the verge of a new family life, then the first question you will ask yourself is what dress to wear down the aisle. After all, there are a lot of styles and styles of wedding dresses and they are suitable for different wedding themes.

Graceful wedding dresses of the Greek style are most often sewn from fabrics that flow gracefully. In such dresses, there is always a high waist, which visually enlarges the chest, and vertical folds, pleats make the bride a little taller. Having put on a Greek wedding dress, you don't have to worry about figure flaws: it will hide them, while showing the advantages.

One of the unusual models is the asymmetrical armhole "on one shoulder", like the capes of the Greek goddesses. As an interception, there is a draped strip of fabric, emphasized by a brooch or bow.

Modern designers use crossover fabric flows on the chest, to which vertical waterfalls are added to the hem.

An interesting technique was the use of non-standard sleeves. They transform into shoulder straps, plumes, scarves or capes.

A boho dress is a dress with a simple, half-fitted cut, many handcrafted elements, trimmed with guipure and ruffles. Most often the length reaches the floor, but you can find a model with a skirt that is shortened in the front and long in the back, as well as models above the knee.

One of the characteristic features of boho is the absence of a veil, which can be easily replaced with unusual ornaments: headbands, wreaths, pearl threads, tiaras, lace hats.

An empire dress is characterized by a straight neckline, a flashlight sleeve, a wide belt under the bust, a flared skirt and an airy train.

Now the sleeves are replacing straps of different thicknesses or they are completely absent. Lavish decor is completely absent, exceptionally elegant elements are inherent. The brightest and most embellished part of the dress is the belt. It is decorated with embroidery, lace, crystals or a large brooch, and decorated with a bow on the back.

The traditional silhouette is constantly being supplemented with new details and will not soon cease to be popular.

The wedding dress of the year looks like a mermaid costume. It is tight-fitting, which will show all the dignity of your figure, and flared at the knee level, will give charm and mysteriously alluring sexuality.

But in relation to the upper part of the dress - it all depends on the imagination of the designer, it can be sleeveless, with an open or closed back, have a tight-fitting, straight or closed neckline.

The bottom of the dress radically changes the perception of the whole image. The hem can be round or slightly gathered at the back.

The simplest and most unpretentious, sometimes even vintage silhouettes - all this is a rustic style. The highlight of this style is the splendor, lightness and airiness of the hem of an interesting length and design.

Most often, such dresses are not combined with a veil, but with shawls, scarves, stoles, and wreaths of fresh flowers.

Vintage dresses, but with a modern twist - this is a vintage style. Length varies. Wedding dresses most often have a low waist, in such cases, the skirt expands at about knee height.

Vintage dresses are sewn from airy, floating fabrics, and they are decorated with various decorative stones: glass beads or rhinestones. Also, an abundance of lace elements in dresses of minimal length is not excluded, sometimes embroidery is found.

A distinctive feature of the vintage style is the inevitable presence of catchy colors of some trim elements or the presence of defiant make-up. Cropped dresses are preferred by girls for a graceful and playful look.

Dresses of this cut emphasize the gracefulness of the figure, giving the image a femininity and tenderness.

The retro style provides us with a huge selection of models, since it begins in the twenties of the last century and ends in about 60 years.

The twenties are a daring period of gloss, extravagant feathers, an abundance of beads, and wedding dresses with missing sleeves.

But the thirties are characterized by restraint and the global crisis, this is necessarily a long dress with a train and a cutout on the back, complementing the image.

Tenderness and light charm exuded from the brides of the forties, tulle and chiffon, open shoulders are back in fashion, but most often sleeves were added to the dress.

The new look (50-60 years) is also referred to the retro style. Wedding dresses resemble an hourglass: an ankle-length dress, a fluffy skirt, an accentuated chest and a slightly narrowed waist.

Curvy cropped models are well suited for a fun, stylish wedding.

A wedding in the national Russian style will be no less memorable. In ancient times, a young wedding dress consisted of a shirt, a skirt and a sundress. The image was complemented by an ornament unusual for us - a winding. Today, models in the national Russian style of compatriot designers often contain national motives.

You can also pay attention to the a-ryus-style sundress. Bright a-shaped models are available in many variations. A wedding sundress will not only draw attention to the bride, but it will also be an excellent solution for girls in position or with curvaceous forms. With its help, they can profitably beat their image.

Close to the rustic, but simpler, rural style is Provence, the characteristic features of which are the emphasis on natural beauty, simplicity of forms and various shades of Provencal landscapes.

A princess wedding dress is a delightful outfit that is accompanied by a fluffy long skirt.These dresses give off tenderness and sophistication.

Models are famous for a variety of finishes, including drapery, guipure bodices, embroidery with precious, rich threads. At the same time, they approve of chic, oversized, shiny accessories.

Stylists advise to choose shoes of snow-white or gold color and possible shades, on an elegant heel or platform, preferably decorated with pearls. An integral element of the image is a veil. Long and layered desirable.
