Every girl dreams about her wedding day and wants the occasion to be perfect. She wants to look breathtaking when walking down the aisle. The wedding dress plays an important part in making the moment memorable for life. To look like a modern trendy bride, you may want to skip the traditional white dress and look into the latest colored dresses for your special day. If you pride yourself on being bold that day, don’t hesitate to show your true colors with these unconventional colored wedding dresses. Your wedding dress should show off you and your personality! Do you need help finding the right wedding dress? We are Charlotte NC’s expert in wedding dresses.

Here “Exclusively you Bridal shop” described little bit about all the collections of wedding dresses of 2013 and newly launched collection of 2014.

Wedding dresses name & Short descriptions:-

SHEATH: Unconstructed, long and slim, the sheath is body-hugging and doesn’t have a fitted waist.

A-LINE: A fitted bodice that has a modest flair in the skirt. This is a universal, classic shape that suits almost any body type.

DROP WAIST: A longer bodice is fitted through the hips with a shorter skirt.

BALL GOWN: This is the fairytale princess dress style. It has a long, flowing skirt and a fitted bodice. It has lots of fullness created by petticoats or hoops.

MERMAID: Also called a trumpet or fishtail design, the mermaid dress hugs the body and begins to flair, usually at the knee. The flare can be modest or exaggerated. This design accentuates a woman’s figure and looks especially fabulous on tall, athletic women.

EMPIRE: Distinguished by a high waist that hits just below the bust, the empire styling elongates the body, minimizes pear-shaped figures and can conceal a disproportionately large or small bust.

FIT-AND-FLARE: A dress that closely hugs the body through the bodice and right past the hip, where the skirt then flares away from the body.

  • Now that you understand the most popular styles, here are a few bridal gown shopping Do’s and Don’ts based on your body shape.
