There are so many different styles and cuts of wedding dress that there will always be something to suit your body shape. The key is to choose something that will accentuate your best features, while drawing attention away from the parts you aren’t so keen on. Remember these key points:
- Empire line dresses will lengthen short legs
- Dropped waist gowns will compensate for a short waist
- V-necks are very slimming and perfect for larger busted brides
- Detail and gathered material at the bust is great for flatter chests
- Horizontal lines widen the body and vertical lines elongate it
Don’t be tempted to try to hide the parts of your body you don’t like under layers of structured fabric as this will only draw attention to them and give an overall chunky impression. Conversely, make sure your dress isn’t too revealing as you don’t want to be self conscious all day, and you don’t want your wedding photos to be something you later cringe over
