Petite (under 5’4”): a high neckline with an empire waist,
a short sleeved,
sleeveless dress and off-the-shoulder neckline
will make you look taller.
Tall (over 5’9”): a drop waist with a wide belt and trim or ruffles
that wraps around the dress will take away the all legs look. Also, off-the-shoulder and low necklines with billowy
sleeves are also good.
Hats or dramatic
veils are striking
and will not overpower you.
Average (5’5” to 5’8”): You’re
lucky and can get away with almost anything.
You may want to select something that makes you look either shorter or taller depending on the groom’s height.
Slender: you can add a few more pounds by selecting a heavier
fabric such as satin, velvet,
or moiré. Choose a blousier
bodice with a gathered waist and narrow
sleeves.
Heavy: a high waistline or an A-line
dress with vertical
lines would be flattering. Stay away from lacy ruffles, clingy fabrics
or puffed sleeves.
Large busted: a v-shape or high neckline with a keyhole yoke is usually the most flattering. Avoid empire or cinched waists as they accentuate larger
breasts.
Wide Hips: hips can be disguised with a flared shirt or ball gown as well as an A-line dress.
Selecting a gown with bodice and detailed like lace or beading will emphasize
you upper body and waist instead of your hips.
Short waist: a-line or drop waist bodices
will help elongate
your torso and help mask your real waistline.
