Also . A super minimalist wedding dress * is better than a tacky wedding gown*

But - a minimalist dress doesn’t have to mean “shapeless and bland”
Here’s a mini thread for examples

Left: shapeless and bland

Right: simple and chíc

Left: made extremely well, but this is giving me “midday brunch” - not “my wedding day”. A modest dress is ok, but it can be done better .

Right: this is both chíc AND modest

Left: no

Right: yes

I picked these so you can see how the most minor details can make or break the look. The way dress two is “cut” at the middle makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE, shape-wise. & the lace at the wrists is just a tease, which stops it from looking cheap like dress 1

we all have different tastes, but i can assure you this mini thread is objective, bc I personally wouldn’t even wear any of the ones I said were good choices

* partially bc I think straight, simplistic dresses=more flattering on tall/skinnier bodies - I am short and thick lol

Fabric type, draping , sleeves - the way it’s all made, even, is what can make a $50 dress look like a $5,000 one, and a $5,000 one to look like $15 party city bride. So there you go
