Changes In Wedding Dress Styles

Usually a woman's wedding suit, unlike a man's, is worn only the once. The most lavish and indulgent purchase for any girl is generally her wedding dress. Dreams from a young age of the fairytale wedding often centre around the perfect dress. The choices in black strapless dress wedding attire today are great and cater for the often vastly different bridal personalities. Many brides, however, choose to revert to the more traditional theme warranting a more traditional gown for the occasion, such as Lady Diana's silk, taffeta gown created by the Emmanuals.

White wedding dresses have long been accepted in society as a symbol of purity and innocence although today's brides often opt for a more flattering ivory hue. During the first part of the last century a white wedding dress, because it couldn't be washed and reused, was a sign of wealth. Coco Chanel reinforced this idea in the late 1920's with her short white wedding dress with full veil which inspired the acceptance of the white wedding dress worldwide.

The traditional wedding dress is likely to be a jewel encrusted luxury fabric such as duchesse satin, organza and silk. Wedding dress styles vary from the traditional A-line through to vintage lace styles. The traditional A-line style's popularity is due to its ability to disguise most imperfections in body shape, an essential requirement if the backless black dress bride is to look her best.

Accessorising to complement your traditional or modern wedding dresses plays a crucial role in bringing the whole look or theme together. Satin pumps, jewel encrusted veils, sparkling tiaras - the range of accessories is vast and includes blue laced garter for the important 'something blue'.

Eggshell, ecru and ivory are just some of today's popular choices of 'white'. Additionally, in keeping with today's civil wedding ceremonies, most brides will choose an off-white gown of modern style. Fashion trends often dictate the style chosen by the young modern bride wishing to veer away from the traditional style of ceremony. The modern bride is likely to want a dress designed by people like Vera Wang or Maggie Sottero. Hand sewn embellishments and cutting edge design challenge the more traditional wedding gown.

Whatever the design - modern or traditional - the dress must be compatible with the bride's personality. Vera Wang's statement about a woman never being sexier than when she's comfortable in her clothes is so true for the day of your wedding.

Homecoming Dress Styles

Because homecoming is considered to be a semi formal event, a young woman has a greater amount of options to choose from when it comes to choosing a dress. The semi formal style is marked by an absence of exaggerated detailing and embellishments, in favor of more relaxed and casual styles. For this season in particular, there are several popular styles of homecoming dresses. Regardless of the one she chooses, she is guaranteed to look beautiful.

The strapless dress is a traditional choice for this type of event. It is most often featured in shorter homecoming dresses and fitted homecoming dresses. Because this type of neckline often exposes a maximum amount of skin, it should be balanced out by a more modest hemline. The neckline may be cut away to form a sweetheart neckline or it may be cut straight across.

The cinched waist is a style that has become increasingly popular within the last several years. It is characterized by the use of a belt or sash to emphasize a person's natural waistline. This particular style can be ideal for plus sized homecoming purple strapless dress dresses, because it creates the appearance of a natural waistline.

Dresses that feature jewel tones are especially popular this season, due to the more relaxed style of the semi formal event. The most popular colors include emerald green, ruby red, and navy evening dresses amethyst. If a person chooses a different color of dress, she can still accessorize it with jewel tone accessories, like shoes, purses, or jewelry.

The idea of splash and sparkle never seems to go out of style. This season this trend is being incorporated into homecoming dresses through the use of metallic fabrics. Silver, gold, and bronze are the most popular color options for this trend; however, a young woman will be able to find metallic dresses in a variety of colored sequins. Satin is also a popular choice to express the ideal of splash and sparkle because of the rich sheen the fabric gives off.

Finally, the off shoulder dress has been making a huge comeback this season. A bare shoulder can create a look that is both sexy and sophisticated, while leaving something to the imagination. An off shoulder dress may feature the fabric loosely draped over one shoulder, or it may have a thin strap that reveals more of the shoulder.
