You’re about to have an experience you’ve always dreamed of: wedding dress shopping! When your personal shopper asks you what silhouette you prefer, you may say you want to show off your female figure in a gorgeous, form-fitting (and flattering!) dress. She suggests a fit and flare wedding dress, a mermaid silhouette, or perhaps one of their trumpet designer wedding gowns. Wait a minute, aren’t they all the same? Don’t’ worry! The Wedding Shoppe has created a guide to wedding gown silhouettes to help you find your dream dress.
We’ll begin with the fit and flare wedding dress. This silhouette is the most popular of our designer wedding gowns. “Fit and flare” is often misused to describe all gowns that are tight in the bodice and flare out. It’s true that a fit and flare wedding dress closely hugs the bodice and then gradually flares out. However, this form-fitting silhouette gives you the most room in the legs, allowing you to walk and dance comfortably on your big day. As you can see, the three silhouettes of form-fitting designer wedding gowns are very similar, but we’re pointing out their small differences to make sure you have the best shopping experience possible.
The next dress Brittany describes it the Trumpet wedding dress. This silhouette looks similar to that of the fit and flare wedding dress, however it’s fitted further down the body, and then flares out approximately mid-thigh. The skirt gradually flares out in comparison to the mermaid silhouette Brittany goes over next.
Designer wedding gowns constructed using the mermaid silhouette are very dramatic. They are snug against your frame until at or below the knee. Then they flare dramatically compared to a trumpet or fit and flare wedding dress. The mermaid silhouette offers you the least amount of movement, but gives you the most bombshell shape.
