Length According the Height
When looking for wedding dresses to make you taller, use your height as a guide. Tall women should wear a longer dress, which lengthens the look of the body and makes for a leaner appearance. If you are short in stature, choose a dress length that falls right below the knee for a taller and leaner look.
Wedding Dresses with Patterns
If you’re worried about how you will appear to guests on your wedding day, choose a wedding dress that offers patterns with an optical illusion effect. A bold bride may select diagonal stripes to detract the eye. Keep in mind that patterned wedding dresses with horizontal or vertical stripes can create a heavier look.
Take Advantage of the V-line
Got a problem middle section? Browse wedding dresses with a V-neck, which can slim down your entire appearance. Choose a wedding dress with a V-line waist to reduce a bulky midsection and top of the hips.
Eliminate Belts and Ties Around the Waist
Look thinner with wedding dresses without belts, ties and scarves tied around the waist, which can create a bulky look.
Short Dress and High Heels
Show off your legs with short wedding dresses that make you look thinner. Pair with a high heel to give the impression of added length to your legs.
Choose Darker-Colored Wedding Dresses
Not only do wedding dresses with a darker color make you look thinner, but they also give the appearance that you are much taller than you really are. Achieve a slimming effect, as well as a taller physique by choosing the following wedding dress colors:
- Black
- Navy Blue
- Forest Green
- Maroon
- Chocolate Brown
