Evening
Wedding Attire For Women
I would highly appreciate if
you could control your mind from making all possible guesses, and pick up the
wedding invitation card, instead. Weddings that have a theme are, even though
fun, befuddling when it comes to pick up the perfect wedding dress. All you need to do is, figure out the theme of the
wedding. To start with, if the wedding is formal, it calls for a regular formal
evening wedding attire. In this case, nothing's better than knee length dresses
or long evening wedding gowns. A-lines, and long evening gowns, particularly
the ones that give you a mermaid look, are heart-melting. Pin up your hair,
make a bun, apply some bright makeup (it's an evening wedding, dark makeup will
complement you), wear a beautiful bracelet or bangle with the dress, and high
heels. I cannot think of wearing a cocktail dress without heels. Somehow, I'm
not confident. I'm not myself.
On the other hand, if it's a beach wedding, nothing better than a knee
length floral dress, that gives you
a rich look. Wear pearl jewelry with it, and not to forget, heels again. You
need not tie your hair this time. Instead, pin up, or leave them disheveled.
However, since it's during evening time that the wedding's taking place, forget
not to apply beautiful makeup. You may choose to use shades of pink, and brown,
or even smoky. The thing about choosing evening wedding dresses that have floral prints for beach weddings is that
they are casual and chic at the same time. However, florals are a big no-no for
formal parties. Dresses that have hardly one of two colors make for a perfect
cocktail dress. Some furs, glitz, and accessories make up for a proper wedding
attire.

Hawaiian
One of the best wedding dress ideas
is to select a typical Hawaiian theme based wedding dress. Wear a mini white
dress with a lot of frills and keep the clothing as minimal as possible. The
dress has to have a flare and be flowing. You can also team this with a thin
scarf around the neck. This type of dress should be at least 5 inches above
your knees and the back is preferred open. You can wear a necklace made from
some flowers and wear similar jewelry in your feet too. Anklets look really
great with such dresses.
The Sundress
Pretty sundresses for beach weddings are option number two as they make great
wedding dresses but these are appropriate only for summer weddings. Summer dresses in colors of sherbet lemon,
light baby pink, golden and lilac are a sure hit. Trying something different
than the usual white can really turn out to be a great idea. Sundresses can
come up to your knees unlike the mini wedding dresses. Wearing them in the cold
isn't a bad idea but then you don't want people to think you're a wardrobe
disaster, do you? Enhance your look even more with some bracelets and delicate
earrings.
Mermaid Dresses
Mermaid dresses are my personal favorites and an obvious option if I have to
share some beach wedding dress ideas.
It doesn't matter if you're getting married in the winters or in the summers,
if the beach is your venue, this one is perfect as an option. Mermaid dresses
are body hugging till the knees and flare like a balloon below them, till the
toes. A tube is much more preferred than a mermaid dress with straps. You can team
this with a nice elegant necklace hugging the neck and the tiara. Keep it just
at that.
· You should try to clean the wedding dress soon after the wedding. If you wait too long the stains become older and are difficult to remove.
· You should choose a standard and qualified professional wedding dress specialist to clean your wedding dress.
· You should find a place to store your wedding dress that is easily accessible. Do not stack the storage place with other things.
· You should never keep your wedding dress hanging, rather it should be placed in box. But, never store your wedding dress in an air tight box because clothes also need to breath fresh air.
· Do not store your wedding dress in attic or basement because the place is too damp.
· You should never keep camphor balls inside the storage box. The chemicals in them can destroy the fabric.
· You must try and place acid free tissues in the box and within the folds of the wedding dress to keep the environment constant and prevent wrinkles.
· Before handling your cleaned wedding dress wear cotton gloves or wash hands properly. The oil from your hands might damage the dress.
· Before storing the wedding dress you should take care to remove all the pins and metal buttons if any, because they can destroy the fabric. Also any foam material should be removed before storing the dress.
· You should keep monitoring the condition of your wedding dress to find if there are any problems occurring and address them properly. You must have a look at it at least once in two years.
These tips and your own ideas of preservation will definitely help you in preserving your wedding dress and make it look as new as it did at the time of your wedding. Do take proper care of your investment and preserve it for years to come.
Dress Patterns
When you look for simple dresses, A line gown definitely tops the list. A
simple A line gown with a 'V' neckline and sleeveless pattern is the perfect
pick. Accessorize such simple wedding
dresses with organza waist belt and get set to walk down the aisle. You can
add a diamond or broach at the mid of this belt to give a perfect finishing
touch to the outfit. Empire waistlines are a hot trend of this season and you
can have the same accommodated in the dress pattern. Further keep the piece
sleeveless or add balloon sleeves. Also, the lower part can be kept flowy or
made a bit stylish by keeping it body fitted. Short dresses with empire
necklines are also a good pick. You can have the lower part flowy with a narrow
colored trim added at the hemline that matches with a trim added at the lifted
waistline in this case. Satin trims make the best pick for wedding gowns. If
you are opting for a colored wedding dress, you need not add any contrast
colored trims or belts as the same can overdo the look. Keep the entire dress in single color and just add
sequins at neckline or for the upper part of the dress and sleeves in case of
empire necks.
Colors to Choose
Soft colors are the best trick to get that simple look. You can definitely pick
a dark shade like the crimson or maroon, but keeping the dress pattern very
simple in this case is much essential. Colors like aqua blue or white make the
best simple beach wedding dresses. Soft pink, peach, light rose color and ivory
are the ultimate color choices for simple wedding gowns and dresses. When adding belts, bows and
trims you can go for colors contrasting with the basic dress fabric.
Well, designing a wedding dress that looks simple, yet catchy and rich is not a
tough task. All you need to do is browse through the dress styles, choose the
right fabric and consult a good dress designer who will understand your
requirements. Make sure that colors, length of the dress, necklines and overall
pattern is so chosen that it suits you well and you are comfortable to carry it
off.
