2- A-line wedding dress
Similar to a ball gown, an A-line dress is universally known to be the most flattering dress style as it suits all body types! The beauty of this style is that it creates an illusion of an hourglass shape for women, highlighting her feminine curves with its cinched waist. You can always find matching flower girls dresses, and your maid-of-honor and bridesmaids can wear similar styles to get a coherent look for the bridal party.

3- Empire wedding gown
Moving on to a more traditional dress style, the empire cut. An empire wedding dress style is similar to an A-line dress when it comes to the cut and the body shapes! The difference between an empire dress and an A-line gown is that the first one’s skirt flares out just under the bust, whereas the second one starts from the waist. Same as the A-line style, any body shape can rock this style as it hides the lower part perfectly and focuses on the upper-half! However, if you’re a busty bride you might feel as if this style is accentuating that area in a bad way, so be aware of this issue!

4- Mermaid wedding dress
A mermaid dress is a critical and limited option for bridal ceremony. When it comes to form-fitted dresses, only two body types are perfectly appropriate for it: hourglass shapes and triangle shape! A mermaid wedding gown is a dress that hugs your body perfectly from the top all the way down to the knees, then flares out slightly in a skirt with a train. If you’re an hourglass shape then you probably would like to show off your feminine figure in a dress that emphasizes your assets, similar to a triangle shape. The reason why this type of dresses isn’t suitable for a rectangle shape for example, is that it does nothing to the figure and we wouldn’t want you to look anything less than perfect on the big day!
