Bride-to-be, let’s get one thing straight: choosing your wedding dress is not just a shopping trip. It’s a moment. The dress you say yes to will walk down the aisle with you, star in your photos, and probably get more compliments than your future spouse (sorry, not sorry).
But between lace, satin, ballgown, fishtail, and that one rogue feathered number, the options can feel... overwhelming.
Fear not, gorgeous. We’re here to help you find the perfect dress—for your shape. Because bridal magic happens when a gown flatters you, not the mannequin.
Let’s decode the silhouettes and styles that will have you walking down the aisle like a real-life goddess.
If You're Pear-Shaped...
Think: Defined waist, fuller hips, and a dazzling décolletage.
Bridal besties:
-
A-line gowns – they’re universally flattering, but especially dreamy on pear shapes.
-
Strapless or off-the-shoulder styles that draw attention upward.
-
Detailed bodices – think lace, beading, or illusion necklines.
Veni’s Vow: Balance your silhouette by celebrating your upper half. Add sparkle, structure, or drama to the bodice and let that skirt flow like a romantic dream.
Style Suggestion: styles like Hivienne, Hisa, and Heloisa
If You're Apple-Shaped...
Fuller in the middle with slim legs and a beautiful bust? Here’s how to say yes with confidence.
Bridal besties:
-
Higher waist gowns that sit just under the bust.
-
Soft chiffon skirts for graceful movement and comfort.
-
V-necks or scoop necks that elongate your frame.
Veni’s Vow: Create length and shape with subtle structure. You want a dress that glides, not clings. Think Grecian goddess—not clingfilm chic.
Style Suggestion: Harmony, Hadleigh,
If You’re Hourglass...
Curves in all the right places? It’s time to shine, darling.
Bridal besties:
-
Fit-and-flare or mermaid silhouettes that hug and celebrate.
-
Wrap styles or corseted bodices for ultra-flattering structure.
-
Sleek satin or crepe fabrics that follow your natural lines.
Veni’s Vow: Don’t hide that shape—highlight it! Your waist is a showstopper, so let’s put it front and center. Think red-carpet meets royal wedding.
Style Suggestion: Hellenor, Hecate, and Hadrien
If You're Rectangle-Shaped...
Straight up and down? Let’s add a little bridal drama.
Bridal besties:
-
Ballgowns or full skirts to create volume below.
-
Cinched waists, belts, or draped detailing to give definition.
-
Ruffles, lace, or 3D florals to add movement and femininity.
Veni’s Vow: You’re the canvas—and we’re bringing the art. Use clever design details to create curves and turn heads.
Style Suggestion: Hedya, Hilani and Harela
If You’re Petite...
Small but mighty? Let’s find a gown that won’t wear you.
Bridal besties:
-
Sheath or fit-and-flare gowns that elongate.
-
High waistlines to give the illusion of longer legs.
-
Minimalist styles that don’t overwhelm your frame.
Veni’s Vow: Choose clean lines and elegant shapes. Avoid excessive layers unless they're custom-fitted. This is your Cinderella moment—just make sure the dress fits the clock strike.
Style Suggestion: Zubah, Harleen and Hallie
If You’re Tall...
Legs for days and elegant limbs? Own it.
Bridal besties:
-
Dramatic silhouettes – column gowns, structured skirts, long trains.
-
Bold sleeves or capes (yes, capes!) to frame your height.
-
High necklines or halters to balance proportions.
Veni’s Vow: Don’t play it small—your height is a gift. Go for gowns with presence, movement, and grandeur. Bonus: You can pull off cathedral veils like nobody else.
Style Suggestion: Hope, Holisse and Hikaru
