For any bride in weddings, it is the wedding dress that is the centre of who she is. This is why the dress should be chosen well by the bride. Once the wedding dress is decided on, the decision for the other accessories such as the shoes, veil, headpiece, bouquet, hairstyle and others will follow. However, there are brides in some weddings wherein a grand gown is not really necessary. Usually, brides look at some standard types of wedding dresses and customise them to suit their taste. There are different types of dresses that fit the body shape of the bride. Deciding on one should not be like choosing what you should wear to the office or to a family dinner because this is your big day.

Princess Wedding Dresses
These are also called as A-line wedding gowns. A princess wedding dress is most notable for its letter A-like shape. It has a tapered upper, sloped waist and an open skirt. This is best for women with a fuller figure especially on the waist and hips. These dresses are usually decorated with delicate lace trim, beads that are intricately designed to the gown and embroidered designs. Basically, women can use an A-line wedding dress with different body types but this is a big mistake for women without a defined waistline. It also has vertical panels.

Ball Bridal Wedding Dresses
These are gowns that have a touch of classic and elegance in their style. They have a traditional full skit and a tight bodice. The top is usually enhances with beaded lace motifs while the skirt is made to look fuller by adding some airy fabrics. These are ideal for brides with full figures, thin shaped bodies, and pear shaped bodies. These may also be worn by brides to accentuate their hourglass figure or petite frame.

Mermaid Wedding Dresses
These are shaped just like a mermaid. They have a fitted top but the dress widens from the knees. These are also called as fishtail dresses. They are often best accentuated by a trailing train. Mermaid wedding gowns can flatter the figure of women with a small bust and waist. The elegance in the style of this dress comes from the fitted waist and hips that flare from the knees downwards. This is used to show off a woman’s figure but this does not flatter the look of women who have a short waist, thick, petite or an inverted pear shaped body.

Empire Waist
This is fitted in the bust line with the rest of the dress falling straight. This is good for women with a small bust because the dividing line the dress makes the bust appear bigger. This is also best worn by women who do not want to highlight their waist least of all. With the bodice not having their curves, their waist would appear thinner. This wedding dress is ideal for women without a defined waistline, those who are petite or those with an inverted pear shaped body.

Sheath Wedding Dresses
These are fitted dresses that end just above the knee. They are made of simple materials with a shape that can still emphasize the bride’s figure. These are best used by women with petite frames or thin figures.
