A wedding
is a sacred ceremonial and unforgettable thing in the life of any woman. A
bride at the event looks like a princess from fairy tales though all brides
look like each other in their traditional full-length white wedding gowns. In
spite of this widely spread tradition, there's an interesting trend in wedding
dresses. Evidently it's the reinvention
of a trend from the 1950's!
Fancy
dresses and weddings that cost a fortune aren't for everyone, and less
expensive dresses in casual settings are a great solution.
Thus, a wedding
dress should be short!
Short
dresses are especially popular at informal outdoor weddings, beach weddings,
destination weddings (easier to travel with!), and second and above weddings.
The wedding
attire can be made from chiffon, silk, guipure, taffeta, satin and lace, velvet
and white denim. Yes-yes, the denim that Pamela Anderson was at her wedding
function.
The first short
wedding dresses were created by incredible Gabrielle Coco Chanel who gave us
almost all wonderful and comfortable wear in the current world. She imagined a wedding
gown as a modest and elegant dress with a lower waist-line, slightly down the
knees, with flounces and goffering. Yet, the veil was like a small derby hat.
There comes the time of Twiggy who did shock the society with mini wedding
dresses, yet in '70s the hippies got to the weddings and the society enjoyed
wedding ensembles with embroidery, ethnic and folklore patterns.
Want to be know
what the situation is currently? For your wedding party Oscar De La Renta offers magnificent
short dresses with puffy down resembling tropical flowers, all for tender and
romantic brides. Satin dress by Carolina Herrera are for sexual and elegant
brides. Lanvin Couture House presented wedding tunics that will make brides
unique but very modest. Alberta
Ferretti Brand launched collection of wedding dresses with a plenty of
accessories. The upper part of gowns is generously decorated with jewels and
you need nothing to compliment such attire. The neckline of simple Vera Wang
wedding dress and its short length are perfect for a bride who wants a
not-too-serious dress. Loose dresses by Prada embroidered with golden beads are
also in the list of popular short wedding dresses.
A veil,
does it suit the short dress? Why not though designers did not come to an
agreement. Valentino, Versace and Balenciaga find short dresses with long veil elegant
and charming while the others believe that bare hair styled into fancy hairdo
with tropical flowers and jewels show solemnity and happiness of the event
matching short wedding dresses.
If you
choose short wedding dress you have a chance to wear it for other occasions as
well, especially if it of other color but white. You may want to decorate your
plain dress with beads, pearls or rhinestones and have an absolutely another
dress for a wedding party.
Short
wedding dresses look pretty cute, but definitely not traditional. You probably need to have some nice legs and
a nice figure to go with them. Though you should be accurate with short dresses
since if you go out the borders you may look vulgar but not elegant. Take a small
purse to match your dress.
With the
right choice of dress design and accessories, informal short wedding dresses
can be perfect for more casual nuptials without sacrificing beauty and style.
