That is NOT mermaid.
This is so helpful thank you 🙏🏼
Darn! I already spent a lot of money on a backless, deep V neck wedding dress😢 highly the alterations will improve the waist situation. Maybe I should consider a second dress for the reception featuring a halter..
i am a wedding dress factory in china can do customized styles and size shipping worldwide
Hi, do you know a stores where I can find dresses for a party, For short torso and long legs? thanks, it not easy to fid dresses for my type of body.
Jules, I had almost exactly the same wedding dress as you ! I'm tall 5.9 but also short torsoed. When I bought it , 10 years ago, I had no idea I had a short torso but I guess it was intuition 🙂
Yep…Have so many 3/4 sleeves.
I wore a silk drop waist dress. Looked great. (22 Years ago). I buy so many rouching stuff.
great tips! So true! short torso girl over here (and narrow shoulders). Had mine custom made, bateau neckline with "wings", mermai/sheath style. Super simple…WISH I could do all the low plunge stuff out there, but it looked ridiculous. I didn't even wear heels, because it made my legs look even longer and thus the torso was much too short.
You save me from a wedding disaster! Thank youu! ❤
High neck trumpet is the style I'd love to go for when I go looking for my wedding dress. I'm 4'9 and have less than two inches between my ribs and my wide hips. My legs are only 2ft long and Im so nervous that finding a dress that makes me look taller could potentially backfire and make me look wide!
Short waisted lady here. I ended up going with a A–line/ballgown style wedding dress. Reason being, it has a short bodice that excentuated my waist without drawing attention to little extra weight.
Found this video just in time. 5'1", short torsoed, large hipped bride-to-be about to begin the search for my wedding dress. Taking note of your tips, especially about backless styles (never even occurred to me but yeah, that could be challenging) and about how hard it is to raise the waist of a style with a defined waistline.
I have a short torso, short neck and large chest. Shopping for clothes is always such a frustrating experience 😭
your dress looked amazing and of course you did too! I am watching this video despite being already married lol.
I had a very traditional wedding dress (it was green with golden embroidery and beads and long train – might sound weird, but this is traditional in the Arabian peninsula). the shape was a long A-line with a belt and 3/4 sleeves. This all would have made me look like I have no torso (I am tall, skinny with a short torso, long legs and long arms), but there was a simple trick – the dress was layered, so the top layer ended way above my ankles with heavy embroidery, while the second layer reached all the way to the floor. this somehow made my body look proportional.
Does mermaid gown with slit still suit short torso body type?
Great video! It's especially challenging since I want an A-line gown. I'm going for a modified A-line (no belt!!) Or a dropped waist style, which unfortunately isn't very popular right now
You looked beautiful in your wedding dress!! I appreciate the tips 😊
Short torso big hips here! I got married in 2014 and my dress was actually extremely similar to your dress. Loved mine and love yours too! I had diagonal ruching and a dropped waist. I would be a lot more conscious knowing what I know how in picking a dress but I still loved it and loved that it was light weight for my summer wedding. 💗 thank you for your content! It was changed the way I see and appreciate my body.
Gorgeous wedding pic!
I had strapless dress and I was fat I regret soooo much my arms look so ugly that was 15 years ago .planning to get married by church soon definitely I be getting a better dress. Have hourglass Shape
Beautiful
