Your wedding day is a celebration of love, and your wedding dress should make you feel confident, radiant, and comfortable! We believe that every bride is unique and there’s no one size fits all when it comes to finding your perfect bridal gown. No matter what body shape you have, we’ve got you covered with styles that will make you feel absolutely gorgeous on your big day. Let’s dive into the ultimate bridal style guide, designed to help you discover “the one!”
Hourglass Shape
If you have an hourglass shape, with a more defined waist and curves on top and bottom, you’ll probably want to highlight your natural shape. Fitted wedding dresses like mermaid, sheath, or A-line silhouettes will show off your curves while keeping you comfortable! Dresses with structured bodices or sweetheart necklines also emphasize your waist and neckline, making them a great option. Think about fabrics like satin or crepe, which naturally drape and hug your figure.

Tip: Avoid overly loose or boxy styles as they can hide your beautiful curves. Instead, opt for dresses that cinch at the waist for a flattering, feminine look.
Pear Shape
A pear-shaped body typically features wider hips with a narrower waist and shoulders. The goal here is to balance your proportions by drawing attention to your upper body while creating an illusion of curves. A-line dresses and ball gowns are your best friends! These silhouettes flare out from the waist, allowing you to focus on your upper half. Off-the-shoulder or boat necklines also beautifully highlight your shoulders and collarbones.

Tip: Look for dresses with embellishments or detailing on the bodice to draw attention upwards and away from the hips. Lace, beading, or bold necklines can add that perfect touch.
Apple Shape
With an apple-shaped body, you may carry more weight around your midsection, with a fuller bust and a less defined waist. The key is to create structure while accentuating your legs and neckline. Empire waist gowns, A-line dresses, and dresses with high necklines are excellent choices for apple shapes. These styles will help elongate your body and draw the eye upward. Fabrics like chiffon and tulle are soft and flowy, creating a gentle, flattering silhouette.

Tip: Choose dresses that provide structure in the right places. Look for gowns that have an empire waist or fit-and-flare style to define your waistline and show off your legs.
Petite
For our petite brides, the goal is to create the illusion of height while keeping your look proportionate. Go for shorter hemlines or gowns with vertical lines to elongate your frame. Sheath dresses and A-line silhouettes that flow naturally are perfect for petite figures. Avoid heavy fabrics that could overwhelm your frame, and instead choose lightweight materials like silk or chiffon.

Tip: Choose gowns with a lower waistline, like empire waist or ball gowns, to help elongate your torso. Avoid dresses that are too voluminous, as they can make you look shorter.
