There are many decisions to make when planning a wedding. With the wide variety of wedding dresses to choose from, choosing the right dress for the occasion can be quite stressful.
The corset wedding dress has come back into style and is gaining popularity. These gowns stunningly accentuate the figure of the bride and invoke sexiness and allure. There is an old fashioned feel to these dresses that is noble and presents an air of sophistication. A corset dress can be particularly useful in certain theme weddings, such as Renaissance or Aristocratic themes.
Since the 1940s, corset dresses have rarely been worn in public. Prior to that, they had been worn for hundreds of years by both men and women. Now the woman's corset is seeing resurgence in popularity in different areas of fashion including weddings.
Corset dresses are suitable for any woman's figure, accentuating their beautiful curves. A distinct shape is created by the corset by drawing in the waist and lifting the ribcage to produce a particular hourglass curvature to the woman's body.
For thinner women, the corset wedding dress will highlight her natural curves and dignify her chest. For women of greater stature, the corset will give her shape and form and present an attractive balance.
Corsets have a reputation of being bold and provocative, even "slutty."
Sometimes this is the desired look and some of the more recent styles would probably not achieve this. Even some of the more risque corsets can be worn in formal settings along with accessories such as a shawl or a light, well matched jacket.
One of the great features of a corset wedding dress is its adjustability. The bride's weight may fluctuate between fittings and if it is fit too tightly, it causes discomfort.
These corset wedding dresses have a series of straps in the back which allow for loosening and tightening where needed. This means that even changes in figure can be fitted comfortably to the dress with a simple adjustment of the laces.
