The empire dress is a very unique and exquisite style. The waistline comes up to just below the chest and then falls sleekly down the body, creating a very elegant portrait. This style is very flexible and, depending on the fabric and decoration, can be used for both formal, traditional weddings as well as informal, modern weddings. Brides may choose long elegant sleeves for a formal or traditional wedding while opting for a sleeveless gown for an informal or summer wedding.
Most brides choose a light and airy fabric that is not constricted by weight to emphasize the sleek, breezy aspect of the dress. A silk overlay especially emphasizes this effect. Beading is not typically used as it will add to the weight of the dress, but lace provides an alternative material to decorate your dress.
Women who are petite will enjoy their appearance in an Empire dress.
