Choosing an wedding outfit is a complex process – do you dress to stand out so they can blend in? Which hat should you wear? What length should the dress be? So many questions, so here's a few answers for all your mothers of the bride:
Colour of your wedding outfit You, your family and your friends will be back on your daughter’s wedding photos for years to come. So you must wear a wedding outfit that blends with colour scheme of the wedding. It is essential that you complement the wedding party theme. Do so by choosing a shade that is identical to the bridesmaid’s dresses, but make sure it is not a definite match. By wearing a similar colour to the wedding theme you will stand out as a significant member of the party but you will not be obtaining any attention away from the bridesmaids or bride. Always choose an outfit colour that suits your skin tone and never wear white. The style of your wedding outfit Choosing a style is all to do with your body shape. If you’re an apple, wear a belt to pull in your waist, express your legs in a pair of heels and wear a scooped neck.
If you’re a pear shape wear a jacket it does not go past your hip line and keep to dark, block colours on your bottom half. If your figure is slender and athletic choose a cowl neckline with a chunky necklace and a dress that has frills; remembering to stay away from large paper prints. If you’re not sure what shape you are a scooped neck dress with padded shoulder muscles and a gathered waist tends to suit most body types. We recommend you do some research though and look in the mirror to find out your body type. The fit of your wedding attire One of the most important things about buying your wedding outfit is making sure it fits. This seems obvious, but so many women get this wrong. Remember, get measured.
Do not look at the sizing on the label – sizes vary between different shops. They can't reflect how big is or small you actually are. And if you love the dress, but the size is not right, you can always get your dress altered. It’s affordable and could be the difference between dazzling and disastrous. Comfort is important for a wedding Think about comfort when you are trying your dress on. Could you spend up to 12 hours in it?
Are you going to be too hot, too cold? Remember, when you’re comfortable you exude confidence, beauty and charm. If it is a summer wedding avoid silks and satins as they will cling to your body. Ideal fabrics are crepe, chiffon, cotton or organza. If it is a winter wedding think polyester or a polyester mix. Wools and jersey stretch are also ideal. A dog's fur repleat jacket, a clever shawl and sheer arctic underwear are also excellent accessories for the winter ceremony.
