How to choose the right wedding dress?

That's it, as the big day approaches, the excitement linked to your engagement gradually dissipates and your wedding now occupies all your thoughts. And if, in front of your Jules, you talk about preparations, caterers and champagne, in reality, you only have one thing in mind: thewedding dress!
But how can you be sure to choose the right one? It's not easy to choose an outfit corresponding to the most beautiful day of your life... Gilsa helps you see things more clearly by giving you all the best advice and tips to appear in your best light.

What are the criteria for choosing your wedding dress?

By leafing through specialized magazines and obsessively going to Pinterest, you probably already have an idea of the kind of dress you would like to wear on D. But be careful, before you rush out and copy the looks of your favorite celebrities, it's important to take your particular situation into account. Indeed, even if the princely wedding of Kate and William is a dream, not sure that the endless train of Kate's dress is very appropriate for your situation. What can we say about the 3 magical dresses worn by Serena Williams on her wedding day, capturing the attention of the audience with lots of frills, tulle and sparkles?
Get inspired, yes, but copy, no! To live your big day as it should be, it will be essential to adapt the choice of your wedding dress to your body type, the location of your wedding, and the corresponding season.


1) The shape of the bride
“Know yourself,” said Socrates. When choosing a wedding dress model, this maxim takes on its full meaning.
Indeed, the secret of a well-worn wedding dress lies in the harmony between the shape of the garment and the silhouette of the person wearing it. In other words, just because you love Kate Moss's wedding dress doesn't mean you necessarily have to copy her outfit. No, to make the right choice, forget Kate Moss and focus on yourself and your body. What are your strengths? The things you love, and the things you would like to hide? From there, it will be easier to decide on a model.
For example, small busts can easily dare to wear a bustier or a wide neckline, while sporty women with broad shoulders will rather want to draw attention to their legs with slit dresses, or even by daring to wear a short dress! It will all be a question of balance, so that the fabric of the dress nicely hugs the curves of the fiancee.
And to make your life easier, Oui By Gilsa
prevents you from unsightly marks caused by visible underwear. Thanks to innovative lingerie solutions and accessories of all kinds, your underwear blends under your dress while highlighting your feminine forms.

2) Wedding season
In France, we have the privilege of benefiting from four distinct seasons, with which different scents, colors and climates are associated.
Certainly, wedding calendars are busiest in spring and summer, when the sun shines high in the sky and the flowers are adorned with their most beautiful colors. However, it would be a shame not to mention autumn and winter, which also benefit from particular charms. The softness of autumnal colors and the poetry of winter cold give weddings a unique and romantic intimacy.
Obviously, depending on the time chosen, you will need to adapt your white dress, so as not to die of cold because of too much cleavage, or on the contrary, risk sweating profusely under the sleeves long. Only once the date is set will you know what to expect regarding temperatures. This will make it easier to choose your dress, and sometimes that of a princess jacket that will keep you warm. A wedding clutch could also be a wise accessory, so as not to scatter your most precious belongings.
In any case, be sure that the wedding dress designers have enough imagination and fantasy to offer dresses adapted to each period. Materials and textures will easily adapt to the bride-to-be, in order to offer her all the necessary comfort. Whether it's raining, windy or snowing, you're sure to find what you're looking for!


3) The wedding venue
Last variable to take into account: the place where the wedding ceremony will take place. For the wedding dress to hit the mark, it will have to blend into the decor and match the style of the reception. You don't dress the same for a bohemian wedding on a sandy beach as you do for a traditional wedding in an old castle!
While this is a relatively important criterion, don't feel too restricted by where you get married. Adapt your outfit to the style of the wedding, yes, but don't forget to keep your personality. The goal is to find balance, in order to wear a dress that defines you while being in harmony with your environment.
