Your wedding planner shares her tips for choosing the perfect dress for your big day!
Your Wedding is less than a year away, so now is the time to focus on finding THE dress. Whether you choose a ready-to-wear dress or a custom-made dress, rendezvous offers advice and recommendations to help you find the perfect dress and say “Yes, I am beautiful” on your Wedding day!
Yes, we have hips. Yes, we have small breasts. No, we don’t have Gisele Bündchen’s legs… So what? You are perfect! Stop the prejudices. All these little flaws can help you become a stunner in your Wedding dress, if you know how to use them to your advantage!
Curvy buttocks and small breasts
Complexes? Come on, let’s choose to laugh about it instead, knowing that everything we wear becomes hot, Queen B style…
What do you need? Simple, clean lines, a princess dress, or an A-line dress.
Strapless dress? Without hesitation! Strapless or with thin straps and a plunging V-neck that draws the eye to the top of your figure. Don’t hesitate to add accessories, at least anything that can add volume to your upper body.
Meringue dress? Excessive ruffles and details? Forget about these dresses, tube, ball or sheath, which emphasize your rear without highlighting the rest! Say goodbye to the “Princess Dress”!
I’m no curvier than a boy
And Kate Moss, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and so many others… aren’t they fashion icons? Your power, ladies? Everything looks good on you! Enough to make most women on the planet furious!
Ruffles and frills are the best way to add dimension.
We also love you in draped, pleated, and embroidered dresses, which visually enhance your slender figure. Tulle, chiffon, satin… yes, yes, yes!
If you want to accentuate your slender figure, treat yourself to a backless wedding dress that shows off your small waist…
Corset? Yes, you can with your slim waist!
Short dress? Let people admire your sylph-like legs!
Sheath dress and close-fitting dress? No, you’ll look like you’re floating or even slimmer!
I do a lot of sport and have broad shoulders
Being muscular gives you natural poise and incredible posture. Just look at Charlene Wittstock, Princess of Monaco, a former competitive swimmer! So stop slouching, stand up straight, and show off your sculpted figure!
Fall in love with a wedding dress with asymmetrical lines, an A-line or straight cut, and a fairly high, round or square neckline. Want a sexy detail? Choose a dress with a slit at the bottom to reveal your long, shapely legs!
You’re also sure to be a hit in a short dress!
Want to cultivate an ultra-sexy tomboy look? A white tuxedo worn over bare skin will give you a stunning look!
What to avoid? Dresses with shoulder pads, frills, lace, corsets, thin straps, or a plunging V-neckline.
I’m short, even on tiptoes
Mini dresses are more than cute, they’re ultra hot! Plus, you can show off a super feminine look!
The absolute must-have? A short, structured wedding dress, such as a trapeze or asymmetrical style, short at the front and long at the back.
Long dress at all costs? Just one recommendation: an empire dress, which hides your waist and makes your legs look longer than they really are.
Short dress? Say yes to the babydoll!
Dresses that are too wide or too voluminous? Forget them: they risk flattening your pretty doll-like figure!
The essential accessory? Very high heels, like Gabrielle Solis in Desperate Housewives. Long live stilettos, stiletto-heeled T-strap shoes, and other pumps!
I am all curves
Monica Bellucci, Scarlett Johansson, Salma Hayek… with your harmonious and well-placed curves, follow their lead! You have the ideal physique for the red carpet!
Fall head over heels for a long mermaid wedding dress that will give you a stunning neckline, or for a sheath dress with a corset that will shape your beautiful curves.
V-necklines, sweetheart necklines, cowl necklines… be bold, you’ll only make other women jealous of your voluptuous bust!
Another good choice is a flowing empire-style dress, which perfectly conceals a little tummy.
Dress code to avoid? Strapless skirt sets that emphasize the hips, dresses that are too short or too tight, and sheer or patterned fabrics should be crossed off your list!
No matter your body type, rest assured that you will find the perfect dress for your beautiful Wedding day!
Your Wedding Planner will also be delighted to assist you in finding your dress and share her advice on accessories, helping you create that special touch that will make all the difference on your big day!
Don’t show your dress before your wedding day!
Don’t go to fittings alone. Because even if you feel like you know yourself or know exactly what you want because you saw a beautiful photo in a magazine, the reality at the time of the fittings may well surprise you and surprise them. Go to fittings with trusted loved ones. They shouldn’t give away even the slightest clue! Fittings are also great moments to share with your loved ones, who will kindly give you their opinion.
However, the moment you see your dress for the first time is magical and filled with emotion. You’ll see the stars in your future husband’s eyes—he’ll inevitably think you look gorgeous! You will share a lot during this year of preparation, but when it comes to the dress, don’t give anything away! Your future husband will ask you questions, try to find out… For once, your choice will be entirely your own, and the “wow! She’s beautiful, and she’s my wife!” effect will be all the stronger!
