At this time, a suitable mother dress is very important, which can make mothers attend their children's wedding in a better posture ~ both solemn and decent ~ so how to choose the mother dress at the wedding? There are many factors to consider in a mother's dress, such as her figure and skin, wedding venue and style.
Let's see how to choose a suitable mother's dress!
First, the type of wedding.
Chinese wedding
If the couple's wedding is a Chinese wedding, then mothers can choose cheongsam or Tang suit, and the color can choose mature blue, purple or festive crimson, which is more appropriate.
Western style wedding
Western-style weddings are more modern, and mothers can choose a suit skirt or a more professional dress skirt. It's elegant, and choosing some elegant dresses will also increase the texture of the wedding. There can also be a mother wearing a suit skirt and a mother wearing a dress skirt.
Second, the body shape
pyriform
If the mother's shoulders are narrower than the crotch and the overall outline is a regular triangle, it belongs to a "pear-shaped" figure.
Pear shape, but a tall mother, the lower body is more suitable for a loose long skirt, and it will look slender when scattered to the calf. The hips are more rounded, but mothers with slim waists can choose long skirts with waists. Pear shape, with a fat belly, is suitable for making some ruffled designs at the waist, so that mothers will feel more secure when wearing them.
Strawberry type
If your mother's shoulders are larger than hip breadth's, the overall outline is an inverted triangle, which belongs to "strawberry type". It is recommended to wear a shawl or coat, a dress with shoulder decoration, or a shawl, coat or butterfly sleeve, which can well decorate the shoulders. Strawberry mothers with broken arms can choose butterfly sleeve's dress or a dress with decorative shoulders to make their arms look slender. Mothers with fuller breasts can wear tight V-neck dresses, which can not only highlight their plump figure, but also solve the problem of shoulder width.
Apple type
If the width of the mother's waist and buttocks is similar, there is no obvious contrast between the waist and buttocks, and the waist and abdomen protrude, which is an "apple-shaped" figure. Many mothers belong to this type of character. There is no obvious contrast between the waist and abdomen and the width of the waist-hip ratio of this figure. The waist line of the dress is raised to the position of the abdomen, which can not only cover the waist and abdomen, but also pull up the figure curve. Another feature of the apple-shaped figure may be that the legs are thinner than the upper body, so this figure is more suitable for shorter dresses, revealing slender legs.
Hourglass type
If the width of the mother's shoulders and hips is similar, the waist curve is obviously thinner than the shoulders and hips, which is the "hourglass" figure. Some mothers are thinner, but their shoulders and hips are bigger, which is very suitable for wearing cheongsam. Qipao tightly wraps their hips and looks full of beauty. The one-piece design of the dress will add a sense of exquisiteness and elegance.
Thin and small.
If the whole body is thin, it is recommended to choose a simple and generous narrow skirt. Fit cut and waist cut can outline the figure and highlight the curve. At the same time, the calf will be exposed as much as possible, which will make it look younger and show the slender beauty of the leg. You can also add some folds to the chest and shoulders to increase fullness, but don't drag too much, just decorate it. If the whole body is thin, but the shoulders and hipbones are large and prominent, then cheongsam is the best choice. The bumpy figure makes mom a beautiful scenery at the wedding.
Short stature type
You can choose a short skirt, lengthen the visual length of your legs, and match it with a pair of high heels, which is very elegant.
Third, clothing fabrics.
Mom sits more at the wedding, so be sure to avoid wearing clothes that wrinkle easily, otherwise it will affect the appearance.
Fourth, clothing color.
Generally, wedding red is a festive choice, but the mother is the elder and is not suitable for bright red. Dark red or jujube red is a very good choice, which is in line with the wedding atmosphere and not too frivolous. Or choose a noble and gorgeous purple, but if you don't choose purple well, it will look tacky. You can wear a purple cheongsam or skirt with a white shawl, which will look very elegant.
If the mother's skin is fair: in fact, you can choose any color. In order to show more colors and look younger, you can choose dresses with warm colors, such as orange, pink, champagne and gold.
If your mother's skin is red, you should avoid the warm color mentioned above. It is suggested to choose cool colors such as dark blue, purple, purplish red and royal blue, which can not only modify the skin color, but also give people a noble and elegant feeling. If you feel that the cool color is less festive and warm, you can match a fancy shawl for your mother to brighten the color.
If mom's skin is dark: then don't wear dark clothes. You can try wine red, champagne, rose gold, silver ash and so on. It will look more energetic.
No matter how you choose, remember that the clothes of the two mothers should not be too similar to avoid comparison; Try to stagger the white to avoid colliding with the bride.
I hope that my mother will be beautiful on the wedding day, and the brides-to-be will quickly take this mother dress to choose and match the Raiders recommendation ~
