styles to determine what looks the best on you!
Eden Bridals |
Halter
Perfect for...
Any chest size, broad shoulders, and nice backs. Halter necklines typically
feature straps that wrap around to the back of the neck. It can come with high
necks and very deep cut arms holes for a dramatic and sexy look!
Reconsider this style
if...
You have narrow shoulders, a thick back, or slouched posture. |

Jewel
Perfect for...
The conservative bride and for small chested women who want to look slightly
larger Jewel necklines (also called T-Shirt necklines) are definitely more conservative
than any other style.
Reconsider this style if...
You are already large chested and don't want to look larger! |

Sincerity Bridal |
Off-the-Shoulder
Perfect for...
Brides with great shoulders and defined collar bones. This style often flatters
full-chested and pear shaped figures as well. Off-the-shoulder is quite popular.
This neckline rests below the shoulder and typically has sleeves that cover
a small part of the upper-arm.
Reconsider
this style if...
You have fuller arms, broad shoulders, or slouched posture. |

Sincerity Bridal |
Portrait
Perfect for...
Brides with defined collar bones. Those with fuller arms or longer necks should
also consider this style. The Portrait neckline is similar to off-the-shoulder,
but it typically has more fabric embellishments. This use of fabric creates
a softer scoop from the tip of one shoulder to the other and "frames" your
chest, neck, and face.
Reconsider this
style if...
You have undefined collar bones. |

Casablanca Bridal |
Sabrina/Bateau
Perfect for...
Smaller chested brides. The Bateau neckline is trendy and classic. It is somewhat
off-the-shoulder, but is cut straight and tends to follow the curve of your
collar bone.
Reconsider this
style if...
You have a larger chest size. |

Essence of Australia |
Scoop
Perfect for...
Practically anyone! Scoop necks are reminiscent of the 50s and 60s - something
like Jackie O would wear. It's a classic look really looks great on any figure
type!
Reconsider this style
if...
You don't want to draw attention to your chest or neck. |

Bridal Originals |
Sweetheart
Perfect for...
Brides with larger chests and shorter necks. The Sweetheart neckline is pretty,
delicate, and found on many of the popular styles of gowns. Its distinguishing
look is the heart-shaped top.
Reconsider this style
if...
You have a smaller chest size. |

Bridal Originals |
V-neck
Perfect for...
Showing-off your cleavage, especially if you have a B or C cup size. Just
like the name says, the V-neck style creates a deep v-shaped cut to flatter
and show cleavage.
Reconsider this style if...
You have an A cup or a D+ cup size. |
