Wedding Dresses Waistlines
1. Empire Waistline
The Empire features a seam based high on the waist, just below the bust line. The skirt falls in a slight A-line and is named after the style’s popularity during the Empire period in France.
It works well if you have a smaller bust or want to divert attention away from your tummy. Also, it’s good for pregnant brides.
Please avoide the empire waistline if you have a big bust or full hips.
2. Basque Waistline
The Basque waist forms an elongated triangle beneath your own natural waistline. This style diminishes the width of the dress at the waist.
It works well for brides who are full or hourglass figures, and those who are seeking less emphasis on the hips.
But, it’s not good for large tummies or the pregnant.
3. Dropped Waistline
The dropped waist falls several inches below your natural waistline.
This style of waistline can help elongating the torso and narrowing shoulders in sight. So, please don’t choose the waistline if you already have narrow shoulder, and long waist.
4. Natural Waistline
The seam of this waistline lies, as the name implies, at the natural waist, which is the indentation between the hip and ribcage.
