Wedding dress with corset

No matter how fashion changes, no matter how style and design trends change, the corset still remains the basic element of the wedding dress. Although it is impossible not to notice that some wedding dresses today are sewn without it. And yet, not a single fashion house has presented its collection of dresses without a model without a corset.

Fashion couturiers and designers, and indeed the entire female half, are grateful to the creator of the corset, because it allows a woman to correct an imperfect figure, emphasize her chest and waist, and also give grace and femininity. If in the 18th century a corset with a skirt with rings could be seen everywhere, then in the modern world such an outfit is more associated with a wedding dress.

A wedding dress with a corset always looks elegant, gentle and stylish. In this outfit, any bride feels like a Disney princess, just like in a fairy tale, which she dreamed of since childhood. A fluffy white dress and a prince on a white horse is, of course, a long-standing dream model for any girl. Despite the fact that a white Mercedes has replaced the white horse today, a fluffy white dress with an embroidered corset still remains relevant.

1. Emphasizes the waist;
2. Hides and corrects the volume of the hips and legs;
3. Allows you to visually enlarge the chest;
4. Gives an even and completely graceful posture;
5. Lacing allows you to vary the size and volume;
6. Gives a feminine look.

To date, there are three variations of wedding dresses with a corset:

1. Piecework model (corset and skirt are sewn together);
2. With a corset and a skirt (two parts exist separately from each other);
3. With an elongated corset (such a corset has only a decorative function).

This is the traditional bride's outfit, which is chosen most often in Russia. Such a dress can be either A-shaped or classic ball gown. At the same time, the A-shaped dress has its own volume due to several layers of skirts, the so-called petticoat for volume, and ball gowns are most often on the ring. At the same time, you can choose a variety of corsets for these dresses: with a transparent corset, with lace, with rhinestones, with sequins, etc. The corset in such models of dresses can have lacing both at the back and two on both sides, and it can also be either with hooks or with a zipper.

Mermaid style wedding dress is very popular in the West. It is chosen by stellar celebrities, royals, and ordinary girls, repeating fashion trends. However, you need to be very careful with such a dress, because like no other dress it will emphasize all the advantages and disadvantages (if any) of your figure. There should be a clear outline "chest-waist-hips". Therefore, choosing such a model, do not get into trouble, because every girl wants to look the most charming and attractive at her own wedding. If you meet the parameters plus / minus 90/60/90, then feel free to choose this outfit and you will not lose.

Dresses with a low corset have long been popular among brides both in Russia and around the world. Such a dress, like the Mermaid dress, will encircle your figure, repeating all the curves and bulges thanks to the corset. It is very sexy, so many of the fairer sex opt for them. This model can hardly be found with a transparent corset due to the fact that the corset here is elongated and wraps around the hips. However, this does not affect the richness of the choice, because elongated corsets can be found in a variety of styles and with different decor: with sequins, lace, embroidery, glass beads and even Swarovski stones.

It cannot be said that such a model of a wedding dress is popular in our country, but it has the right to exist, if only because some young ladies prefer just such a dress model. Given the current trends "to be different", this dress may be your choice. Your wedding look can safely turn into a retro style - a sun skirt, a beautiful corset, a belt.

You need to be very careful when choosing a corset. If the bride has never tried to wear a corset in her life, then she needs to remember that he changes will significantly change her posture, making her more even and graceful. When choosing a corset, you need to take exactly your size, not counting on the fact that you will lose weight. And if you have already set yourself the task of losing weight for the wedding, then it’s better to lose weight first, and then buy yourself a corset.

Raising the question of how to lace up a corset, one immediately recalls the scene where the nanny tied the corset of young Scarlett O'Hara (the film Gone with the Wind), or the same moment in the movie Titanic (where Rosa's mother helped tighten the laces on the corset). So, how do you properly lace up your corset?

It must be remembered that trying to tighten the threads as tight as possible can turn into a nightmare for the bride, because she will have to spend the whole evening, or even a day, in this dress. There are many moments on the wedding day that can cause a variety of emotions, up to sentimentality. Therefore, if at the moment of tightening the corset the bride stands still and takes a deep breath, then during the wedding she may be worried. And this means that she will experience rapid breathing, which, with a tightly tightened corset, will cause the bride great discomfort. It is for these purposes that experts advise breaking in a corset before the wedding at least 3-4 days in advance, so that the bride can understand at what volume she is as comfortable and good as possible.

Secondly, they start tightening the lace on the corset from above. Having secured the first cross of the lacing with a knot, the position of the chest is fixed. Then, going down, you need to tighten the waist area and only then make a bow at the final overlap.

If everything is more or less easy with lacing on the back, then some skill is needed with lacing on the sides. The complexity of this lacing is that it must be tightened evenly so that the silhouette of the dress is even and not skewed.

Judging by the latest trends in the fashion world, models of wedding dresses with corsets are gaining momentum. So, in the last fashion weeks in Milan, Paris and New York, such models were found in the collections of Tony Ward, Jean Paul Gaultier, Carolina Harrera and Oscar de la Renta.Wedding trendsetters Vera Wang, Elie Saab and Zuhair Murad were no exception. By the way, the latter used corsets in every second dress, decorating them with all sorts of decor and choosing a variety of shades - from classic white to rich gold. This is not surprising, because with a corset the dress looks much more advantageous, giving the figure an extraordinary grace and sophistication. Emphasizing the silhouette, the corset slims and shows the figure in the best angles.
