Dress Cuts
There is a certain vocabulary that you should know in order to make dress shopping easier. Familiarize yourself with these terms before you hit the stores:
- A-Line: An A-Line cut complements any body type. A slightly flared skirt that starts above the waist and hides problem areas to give you a
slimmer-looking waist. - Empire Waist: A skirt falls straight down from the bust to create an Empire Waist cut, which is flattering for petite girls because it gives the illusion of height and a larger bust.
- Ball Gown: A full skirt poofs out from a fitted bodice and falls to the floor for a dramatic look.
- Mermaid: A mermaid cut is a sexier style, fitted all the way down the body to the knees, where it flares out to resemble a mermaid’s tail.
Now that you’re familiar with these dress terms, you will have a much easier time finding the right gown for you. Shop DressGoddess today for your dress!
