Discard the volume

One of the basic secrets that designers have for giving a bride a little extra height is completely discard voluminous skirts. Leave aside the princess cut or ball gowns, we suggest you opt for simple, mermaid cut wedding dresses or straight dresses, without a long train, because the longer the train, the more height it will take away from you.

The right cut

To achieve the desired effect, we also are a firm bet the empire cut dresses The hippie chic wedding dresses are very well suited to this style because, being made of lighter fabrics, they give more movement and grace to the gait.

Another detail we suggest you pay attention to is the waist of the dress. The shorter or higher the dress, the more height it will add to your legs and the taller you will look. For this, it is also important that any application that takes the torso of the dress does not pass below the hips, and that the skirt is made of smooth and light fabrics.

In case you are looking for a plus size wedding dress we advise you to highlight the waist, as it is another trick that will help you to stylize your bridal look. This can be with a small belt or ribbon or preferring a dress with a waist highlighted with lace or appliqués.

Necklines and sleeves

Regarding the necklines, the most effective to get the appearance of height are V-necklines and halter necklines. If you want to wear a lace wedding dress, the secret will be in the sleeves, because ideally, these should be long, so that visually extend your figure; or opt directly for straps, but not for short or French sleeves.

Other details

There are other details to pay attention to. For example, when it comes to veils, consider wearing them short, no longer than the elbow, because a long veil will have an undesired effect Also, applications such as stones, crystals or jewels should be used strategically so that they do not detract from your height, preferably at the top such as shoulders, neckline or waist.

If a pompous princess style wedding dress is your thing, don't rule it out, just make sure you have a high waist, and avoid appliqués on the skirt. If you want to wear them, do it only on the torso, in a strategic way to add height. Also consider complementing your look with a high up-do, which will lengthen your neck and visually add height. There are many options andfor all tastes!
