Petite
Petite brides are the cutest. You don’t want to take away from that. Keep it simple.
Choose sheath, A-line and trumpet/mermaid style dresses. Their continuous long lines give the illusion of height. A raised or empire waistline creates the illusion of longer legs and a taller you.
Avoid big, frothy princess gowns and large details like big bows and flowers. They will swallow up your figure. A dropped waistline is a no because it shortens your legs and makes you appear squat.
It’s a beautiful fact of life that we all come in different shapes and sizes.
