This is a great video. I'm a petite 5'1" woman who got married this fall, and this video is spot on. Petite isn't a body type; it's a height. We petites come in all shapes and sizes, and we have different body issues, different preferences, etc. I appreciate you bringing up factors like torso length, pedestal vs heels when you try on, alterations considerations, etc. All such good quality info. I ended up in a gorgeous a-line lace gown that was super flattering on me. Thanks for the tip!

I'm 5'3 1/2". I have about an inch between the top of my hip and the bottom of my ribcage. My bust, waist, and hip measurements are within two inches of each other. How would a bridal store handle someone like me?

Now do tall brides. I'm 6 feet tall.

I'm a petite 5'2" and a dress size 4. This lady's advice is not very helpful. In a large full skirt-like ballgown, a petite frame can be overwhelmed by it. It gives the illusion that the dress is wearing you.

I'm newly engaged. As I to am a petite woman I'm 4"11. I was worried about dress shopping bc it very hard to find the right dress. I'm so use to wearing T length dresses bc everything is super long on me.

Thank you so much for this video! I am a very petite bride 4ft 11 inch and wear a size 2 haha. Your kind words, smile, and information sure brighten my day! I also have a question, if I wear wedding-inspired platform sneakers would that allow me to have more options for wedding dresses? But anyway I can't wait to go wedding dress shopping and all the information you have provided eases my anxiety! Keep up with the youtube and tick-tok videos! You're amazing!!!

I would love to have a video on alterations! From a bridal consultant to bride.

Wow! Did not expect you to go into such detail! Thank you so much for answering my question 🤍🤍

Hi Nayri, Would it be possible to send you an email or message about a one on one consultation, if you do something like that? I'm on my 3rd bought gown now… 😂🙈😣

This is a great topic!! Could you do a video for very tall brides one day? I am tall, and worry that dresses will be too short or that the proportions will not be right to suit my body. Thanks for all of the content and information!!!

wooohooo I'm early! I love you because I have a bridal store and sometimes I still like to learn from you because you help me help my brides and give them the best I have to offer while assisting them!

This video is just what I needed, Nayri! I’m petite (5’0) but have a pear shaped body (sz8) and I’ve been hesitant to go dress shopping because I’m anxious that most dresses won’t look good on my figure! Thanks for reassuring us petite ladies that we can wear anything we want ultimately. Thank you for creating content like this, you are truly a bride’s fashionable fairy godmother!!! ❤️
