Wedding dress in Provence style

Every girl dreams of a wedding that will be remembered for a lifetime. A wedding dress in the style of "Provence" is chosen by persons in love with the elegance and charm of France.

In the understanding of most, a wedding dress is a white robe with a puffy skirt that makes the bride look like a marshmallow. But the Provence-style dress model will disappoint conservatives. Puffy skirts are not used here, which allows you to emphasize the sophistication of the figure. Such dresses are always sewn simply, but tastefully. They do not differ in pomposity and excess of decorative elements.

In terms of stylists, this dress suits absolutely everyone, because it embodies the femininity and purity of the bride. The lace neckline looks perfect on sophisticated girls, and the high-waisted cut, from which the fluffy skirt comes, always allows you to hide a small tummy. Modern brides who are proud of their slender legs can choose a short dress, and those who honor traditions can choose a floor-length dress with a train. Models of dresses with a corset help to make a girl with curvaceous forms as sophisticated and feminine as possible. If the train at the back is lined with an assembly, the gait will always look smooth.

The classic style of the dress is a floor-length robe with a train. Instead of sleeves, there are straps of various widths, and it is sewn exclusively from fabrics of pastel, light colors. Typically, a dress in this style has a fitted cut that is slightly flared to the floor. Instead of a belt or corset, the dress has an elastic band or an assembly, which is decorated in different ways. There may be a cutout on the back, which is decorated with beautiful lace, but there are also more advanced models.

A dress of this style embodies femininity and grace. In such a model, the train is completely absent, and if it is, then it is very small. The bride looks very gentle and romantic in it. The lace itself can be sewn to the sleeves and front of the dress and look like a cape. An ideal accessory for such a dress would be a wreath that turns into a veil.

This style is distinguished by a V-shaped neckline, but the main distinguishing feature is a round neckline on the back, which is decorated with translucent embroidery. Such dresses are preferred to be worn on the wedding day by brave girls who are proud of their figure and posture.Lace and embroidery elements can also be present on the corset of the dress and sleeves.

The main feature of this dress is a milky shade. Such a dress can be attributed to the classic Provence, because the cut is not burdened with an excess of decorative details. Some models may feature a V-neck back or be fitted and completely strapless. Such dresses are always sewn from natural fabrics.

Usually dresses in the style of "Provence" are chosen for summer celebrations. But if the wedding is planned for a colder period, say in autumn, a model with sleeves will be an ideal option. Such a dress has all the advantages of a classic one and emphasizes the elegance of the figure, but thanks to translucent sleeves that do not spoil the elegant image in any way, it protects the bride from the wind in the cold season.

Wedding dresses of this type are presented in different colors. The following light shades are considered more traditional for the style:

• cream;
• lilac;
• beige;
• blue
• pastel;
• pink;
• yellow;
• olive;
• dairy.

Dresses in the style of "Provence" are usually sewn from natural and light fabrics. A valuable advantage of this style is slight negligence, so you should not worry about the fact that the natural fabric will wrinkle. Most often, materials such as satin, cotton, chiffon, silk, satin are used for tailoring. Lace, embroideries are often used as decoration, and flounces, fringes and assemblies are made from fabrics.

Another advantage of the Provencal style can be called practicality. The girl who chooses him can not feel inconvenience, being all the celebration on an uncomfortable hairpin, because the main characteristic of the style is rustic simplicity. An ideal complement to a Provence-style dress would be ballet flats or elegant shoes with a small heel. You can also use feminine sandals on a small wedge.

Antique silver jewelry in the form of brooches, pendants, necklaces and earrings from a grandmother's box will fit well into the elegant Provence style. If the dress is decorated with pearl threads, a pearl necklace will be the perfect complement to it, although it should not be rough.

Fresh flowers can decorate the bride's hair or the belt of the dress itself. The wedding bouquet should also fit into the style of Provence and consist exclusively of fresh flowers. Arrangements of wild flowers and fragrant Provencal herbs will perfectly complement the look. Lavender can become the basis of the bouquet, and violets, anemones, pansies, hydrangeas, blue or lilac carnations can complement the composition. It is good if the shade of flowers will be in harmony with the color of the dress.

To harmonize the Provencal image, negligence must be adhered to even in the hairstyle. Classic styling with perfectly laid strands, the same curls and everything that brides usually love will be out of place here.Provencal wedding hairstyle can be described in two words - a slight mess. Light disheveledness in the hair and a carelessly braided braid, from which several strands seem to have accidentally knocked out - this is what harmoniously complements the image. But remember that even carelessness and disheveledness should be beautiful.

A Provencal wedding does not tolerate excess makeup on the bride's face. Natural beauty is what is important in this case to emphasize. No need to use bright shadows and lipstick, get carried away with foundation and powder. Eyebrows can not be touched at all or tinted with their natural color. Their shape should decorate the face, give it a slight playfulness and naivety, then there will be an exact hit in the image. Lips can be tinted with pink gloss, and eyes can be painted with mascara and lined with a pencil.

The groom must match the feminine and romantic style of the bride. At a Provencal-style wedding, he is supposed to be dressed in elegant but comfortable clothes. Classic shirt, vintage suit, vest and trousers - the perfect combination. Many people prefer to wear a bow tie to match the color of their shirt and suspenders for a celebration - this is most appropriate.

Today, a Provence-style wedding is commonly called lavender, which is due precisely to the lilac hue in which it is usually decorated.Lavender flowers can be present at the celebration in everything from decorative elements for outfits to decorating the hall.

Often, lavender weddings are played in tents curtained with lilac curtains, and live bouquets of lavender stand on tables with dishes in the form of decorations. Even wedding invitations are made in lavender style, so that guests know exactly what outfit to choose for the celebration.
