Top 5 Most Popular Wedding Dress Silhouettes
When it comes to choosing the perfect wedding dress, one of the most important decisions is the silhouette. The silhouette refers to the shape and style of the dress and there are a number of options to choose from. Here are the top 5 most popular wedding dress silhouettes:
A-line: The A-line silhouette is generally a fitted bodice and a flared skirt that gradually widens from the waist down, creating an A-shape. This is a versatile silhouette that flatters most body types. A traditional and ageless shape that has made a huge comeback.
Ballgown: The ballgown silhouette is another classic and usually formal style characterized by a full, voluminous skirt and a fitted bodice. This silhouette is perfect for brides who want a traditional look.
Mermaid: The mermaid silhouette is a form-fitting style that hugs the body from the bodice to the knee and then flares out. This silhouette is perfect for brides who want to show off their curves and is well-suited to a number of different style weddings.
Sheath: The sheath is a close fitting wedding dress that is column-like in shape that skims over the line of the body. This silhouette is perfect for brides who want a sleek, modern look and is well-suited to more relaxed, modern weddings.
Empire: The empire silhouette features a high waistline that falls from just under the bust. This is not suited to a lot of body types and is best suited for small bust lines.
