How to select your dress

  • Occasion: Consider the type of event you’ll be attending and the dress code. Whether it’s a formal affair like a wedding or a casual gathering, the occasion will dictate the style of dress you should choose
  • Type: Different dress styles flatter different body types. For example, A-line dresses are flattering on most body shapes, while empire waist dresses are great for highlighting the waistline. Choose a dress silhouette that accentuates your best features and makes you feel confident.
  • Fit: Fit is key when choosing a dress. Make sure the dress fits well in the bust, waist, and hips. If necessary, consider getting the dress altered to achieve the perfect fit.We provide free customized size services. You can measure your size information and leave a note in the order.
  • Color: Consider your skin tone and personal preferences when choosing the color of the dress. Some colors may complement your complexion better than others, so it’s important to choose a shade that makes you feel confident and beautiful.
Every lady desires to look perfect on her wedding or other formal public occasions. The fit guide below provides some information that may be useful for you when choosing a perfect style for your body type and theme.
1. A-line

Universally flattering, the A-line silhouette really is a girl’s best friend. By gently flaring from the shoulders down, it skims curves rather than clinging to them, to create an elegant silhouette.

Is This Style for You? If you’re petite A-Line adds the illusion of length; if you’re tall it can add fullness, and if you’ve got curves you’d rather cover, the A-line does that too.

2. Ball Gown

The most traditional of all dress silhouettes, the ball gown adds curves by accentuating the waist and flowing gracefully into a full skirt. The skirt is great at hiding full hips and creating a gorgeous hourglass figure.

Is This Style for You? A perfect choice for formal or “fairy-tale” inspired events, the ball gown style makes a wonderfully classic wedding dress. Look great on most body types.

3. Column / Sheath

Figure-hugging column dresses come in a variety of strapless and backless styles. This modern style has become popular among brides who want a chic or beach wedding.

Just slightly longer than the ankle-length wedding dress, this style’s skirt is not meant to drag on the floor but rather float just inches above it. Some floor-length dresses come with detailing along the hem to accentuate the style.
