Part 1: Discover Your Body Shape and the Perfect Wedding Dress

Majority of us ladies had always envision what our dream wedding dress would look like, for example, a fairy-tale like princess wedding dress or a sexy mermaid bridal gown for the modern brides. But, have you thought about how these dresses could fit your body shape?

Asian women are commonly known for being petite or curvaceous while some own a pear shape body. If you are one of them, let’s see how we can find you your perfect wedding dress.

Petite brides are usually not tall in height. An A-line silhouette with natural waistline is ideal if you like slightly flare skirt for the princess style but avoid ball gown at all cost because it looks extravagant for you. If you’ve always like a mermaid but is afraid that you’ll look even shorter, try looking for one with lesser volume at the skirt or go for a straight silhouette that hugs your gorgeous figure.

For curvaceous brides, you are one lucky girl for having a curvy, busty figure. Wedding dresses with V-neckline flaunts off your figure well, with the right amount of attention to your fuller bust. Higher necklines like bateau neck draw attention to your fuller top so you might want to avoid that. Good news is that you get to wear body-hugging dresses!

If your body shape falls under the pear category you either have a narrow shoulder or a fuller tummy and hips. An off-the-shoulder neckline or cap sleeves in A-line silhouette is flattering to your body shape. The neckline broadens your shoulder but as the skirt flares from the waistline, it gives you a proportionate shape. A hugging dress with front slit is a great option too.

Last but not least, whenever you’re out hunting for the right dress, always listen to what your bridal consultant says because they know what the best is for you.
