The ultimate wedding dress is the one that makes you feel like a goddess, emphasizes your best features and stuns everyone including of course, your future husband.With so many options and conflicting advice from friends andrelatives is easy to get confused. When choosing a wedding dress is essential to try various types of dresses even the ones you wouldn't normally want to try as you might be surprised by the result. Statistically, future brides try on more than 12 dresses before finding the perfect one so be patient. To make the selection easier, try dresses that match your body type:

  • Petite
  • Generally ball gowns are suitable for any body type except for petite women. A ball gown would overwhelm a petite's woman silhouette. If you are a petite woman you must choose dresses that elongate your body so avoid both ball gowns and sheaths as these will give the impression of shortness. Instead, to appear taller you can opt for an empire waist dress or a dress with a halter neckline. A-line dresses will also prove to be an inspired choice while full dresses that have a lot of detailing on the lower part of the dress can make a petite bride look bottom heavy if the wrong choice is made.
