Choosing the Perfect Dress
SHEATH - As the name EMPIRE - This shape is
suggests, this design is quite reminiscent of Jane Austin
narrow from shoulder to hem heroines, a high waist and
and fits the figure quite closely gently flared skirt which is
everywhere much narrower overall than
the Princess or Ball Gown.
BALL GOWN - Imagine Cinderella’s dress when
she goes to the ball; this is exactly the silhouette of
a Ball Gown dress. The bodice is fitted but the dress
begins to flare at the waist and continues, like the
Princess, to a full skirt at the hemline.
PRINCESS - This style has MERMAID - This is a less
a fitted bodice and hips with common dress style; the dress
a skirt which gently flows is quite figure hugging until
outwards to become full at the reaching the legs where it fans
hem. out like a mermaid’s tail.
