A-Linie

A fitted bodice that falls from the waist in a soft A-shape.

Who it suits: The classic almost every bride feels good in.

More about this shape

The A-line is one of the most popular wedding dress cuts. A fitted bodice opens out from the waist into an A-shaped silhouette. It defines the waist and then falls gently over the hips and lower body – a classic choice many brides feel good in.
Princess

A fitted waist, often with a sweetheart or V-neckline, and a full, voluminous skirt.

Who it suits: For a fairytale, regal entrance.

More about this shape

A princess gown is known for its majestic, regal look: a fitted silhouette, often paired with a sweetheart or deep V-neckline, and a wide, voluminous skirt with many layers of fabric or tulle. Ideal for brides who want a romantic, fairytale look with a defined waist and a full skirt.
Fit-and-Flare

Fitted to the hip, then flaring out.

Who it suits: Shows your curves but leaves more room to move than a mermaid.

More about this shape

A fit-and-flare gown is fitted close to the body down to the hip, then opens into a flared skirt. Like the mermaid it shows your curves, but the flare starts a little higher – often above the hip or at the thigh – which gives you more freedom of movement and comfort. A wonderful choice for brides who want an elegant emphasis on their figure with a bit more room in the lower part of the dress.
Mermaid

Fitted from bust to knee, then flaring out.

Who it suits: For brides who want to show their curves with confidence.

More about this shape

A mermaid gown is known for its body-hugging silhouette. It follows your curves from bust to hip and opens out from the knee into a flowing skirt, like a mermaid’s tail. The cut works with many necklines, from strapless to sleeves, and highlights waist and hips while creating a stunning silhouette. A popular choice for brides who want to celebrate their body with a touch of elegance and grace.
Empire

A high waist just below the bust and a flowing fall.

Who it suits: Light, comfortable, draws the eye to the neckline. Beautiful during pregnancy, too.

More about this shape

An empire gown has a high waistline just below the bust; from there the skirt falls loosely and fluidly. The cut highlights the neckline, doesn’t cling at the waist or hips and leaves plenty of room to move. That’s why pregnant brides love it – and anyone who prefers a relaxed fit at the waist. Comfortable and elegant.
Vintage

Nostalgic charm: lace, pearls, embroidery, inspired by the 1920s to the 70s.

Who it suits: For brides who love something special.

More about this shape

Vintage wedding dresses are defined by their nostalgic charm, often inspired by past eras – from the 1920s to the 1970s or even earlier centuries. They are decorated with lace, pearls, embroidery and other details that radiate timeless elegance. The style ranges from boho to glamour to quiet elegance, and vintage gowns are a beautiful choice for brides looking for a unique, timeless look.
