The DRESS

How to choose the perfect

WEDDING DRESS Choosing a wedding dress can be both exciting and nerve-racking. To help you create the look of your dreams, here are a few tips.

Make a plan Before you try on a single gown, make a list of the criteria you’re looking for in a wedding dress. Do you want a certain cut, style or length? Do you want to show off your shoulders or hourglass figure? Establishing some cri­teria will al­low you to narrow down the choices.

Use props In addition to your list of criteria, bring along pictures of dresses to show to the bridal store consultant. They can use the information you provide to quickly find several

different gowns for you to try.

Try different styles After the first fitting, you may realize that the dresses that look good in pictures aren’t the right fit for your figure. Don’t worry, your consultant can suggest other styles until you find the dress of your dreams. Additionally, keep in mind that all wed­ding dresses need to be altered. Therefore, don’t be dissuaded if a dress is too long, short or loose. Want a second Whether you decide to buy opinion? Bring along or rent a wedding dress, someone you trust choose the one that ma­kes who knows your you feel most beautiful. For style and can give inspiration, visit your local you honest bridal stores.– NT ª feedback.
