Fit and Flare Silhouette

The wedding dress silhouette perfect for you is fit and flare!

Fit-and-flare wedding dresses hug the body in all the right places! The top of the gown is fitted until the skirt flares just below the hips, this affect helps accentuate a brides’ waist.

Fit-and-flare gowns are somewhat a mix of A-Line and Mermaid silhouettes; this style accentuates the waist and still allows for dramatic flair.

You may think this is the same as a mermaid, but a mermaid is much more restrictive! Fit and flare wedding gowns are also much more elongating because there is not a harsh line where the dress poofs out at the bottom. The gradual flare is subtle and just the right amount of volume.

Fit and flare wedding gowns are often selected by brides with pear and hourglass builds, as the shape highlights your curves. The shape also adds length in the torso, which can help petite brides look taller.
