Great Shape :: Fit & Flare Gowns

After seeing hundreds of women in thousands of wedding gowns, the consultants at September's Bride are pretty good at suggesting the best wedding gown silhouette for almost any body.







Each gown above is a "fit-and-flare" shape, worn by a real bride.  This skirt fits closer through the hips and then flares slightly to the hem and the train.  This shape gives girls with a straighter figure some curves and makes curvy girls look fabulous.

I think this is a shape that every bride should at least try!

Angelina Trunk Show Happening Now!

Here is a lovely Angelina Bridal Couture silk organza gown that is here just through this Saturday, January 7 as part of the Angelina Trunk Show!

I've added a dramatic sash from Enzoani, jewels by MEG Jewelry, and a Jennifer Leigh veil to complete this gorgeous bridal look. 

The ruched bodice has a pronounced sweetheart neckline, natural waistline and a full ball-gown skirt.  The organza skirt is detailed with organza fabric manipulated into flowers.  It is truly a work of art!
