All wedding dresses fall under four basic
silhouettes:
Ball Gown
The most traditional of all categories, the ball gown is
typified by a full bodice and a waistline that leads to
a very full skirt.
Empire
The hallmark of the empire style gown is a high waistline
(right under the bust), which falls to a slimmer skirt.
A-line or Princess
An A-line or Princess shape features vertical seams flowing
from the shoulders down to a flared skirt that create an
inverted "V" -- or "A" -- shape.
Sheath
The slim sheath silhouette closely follows the line of the
body.
The
Perfect Fit:
Getting Your Wedding Dress to Fit Perfectly
According to TheKnot.com, before
you go for your first fitting, you should "Decide which
accessories you want to wear with your dress and buy or
order them and buy your undergarments and bridal shoes."
They say the first fitting usually
takes place about six weeks before your wedding day.
Things to look for:
* the way the material falls
* how the waist feels
* how the chest area fits
* any funny puckering, bunching or bulging
* the stitching, embroidery, and beading are all in good
shape
* everything is well-sewn Look in the three-way mirrors
to view all angles, and ask for another handheld mirror
if necessary. Speak up if you see anything that you don't
like -- or forever hold your peace. The seamstress should
be able to tell you why a problem exists, and what can be
done to fix it. Though you shouldn't expect miracles, it
is your prerogative to have as many fittings as it takes
to get the perfect fit.
TheKnot.com says your second fitting should
be about a month before your wedding day. They say to be
sure that:
* All your concerns from the first fitting
have been addressed and fixed
* You can move comfortably in your gown
* Your dress stays in one place as you move
* There is no obvious wrinkling, bunching, or pulling of
material
* If you have a full-length dress, your hem skims the tops
of the toes of your shoes
Once again, speak up if you see something that doesn't look
right. If there is a problem, continue to schedule fittings
until you are completely satisfied.
Your Final Fitting
Experts say it's a good idea to bring a bridesmaid
or your mother to the final fitting. That way they can learn
how to help you get dressed. If there is a bustle train,
this is a good time to learn how to fix it. TheKnot.com
recommends the following things to consider:
* Does your gown have complicated straps or
buttons?
* What about last-minute wrinkles? Should you use an iron?
On what setting? Is steaming a better option?
* What if you spill something on the gown? Are there certain
products you should/shouldn't use?
When all is said and done, experts say your
gown should fit you like a glove. Take a look in the mirror,
and join the ranks of gorgeous brides everywhere.

Jasmine
We couldn’t pass this gown
by for obvious reasons. It is absolutely
covered in bugle beads and at a
very reasonable price! The heavy
satin fabric is hemmed with horse
hair braid, (really made of plastic
now), to give it structure so that
it stands out. Underneath is a full
net petticoat to support the skirt.
Everyone will be stunned when you
arrive-even if you aren’t wearing
glass slippers.
