Wedding Dress Trains

After you've decided on the style of wedding dress you want, with the perfect neckline and sleeve, the last piece to add is the train. One of the main determining factors in the length of your train is the formality of your wedding. The shorter trains are perfect for informal or semi-formal weddings. The longer, more elaborate trains are best suited for the formal and ultra-formal affairs.

The most informal train is the Brush Train, sometimes called the Sweep Train. It is just slightly longer in the back of the dress than in the front and just brushes the floor behind your dress. This train is perfect for that lovely beach wedding or the semi-formal ceremony and won't add a lot of volume to the back of your dress.

Slightly longer than the Brush Train is the Court Train. It travels about 3 feet from the waistline and adds a little more volume than the Brush Train to the back of the gown. It's also great for most ceremonies, formal and informal. It's not, however, recommended for your garden or beach weddings.

The Chapel Train has become a most popular train, due to the elegance it adds to the dress, while still allowing it to be appropriate for the semi-formal affair. This train extends approximately 4 feet from the waist and is very often used by Vera Wang on her designer creations with lovely embroidery appliques and beading. The more elaborate the embellishment of the train, the more formal the gown becomes.

A very formal addition to your wedding gown would be the Cathedral Train. The Cathedral Train trails 7 to 7 1/2 feet behind her waist and makes an incredible statement when the bride makes her entrance. Often, top bridal designers, such as Vera Wang, will design dresses with removable Cathedral Trains. That way, after the pictures and receiving line, the bride can have her train removed and enjoy the reception.

The Royal Train is absolutely breathtaking when seen trailing 9 to 10 feet behind a gorgeous designer wedding gown. You will be in the church while your train is still coming up the steps. Only the most formal of ceremonies is appropriate for the Royal Train, also known as the Monarch Train. The picture of Princess Di walking toward the alter is a perfect example of the regal Royal Train. Now picture it on your Vera Wang original with silk organza bodice and light ivory silk satin with an interlayer of lace leading to the train. But keep in mind, With this much added material, you'll need additional attendants to assist you.

The last train is unique and different from the others in the way it attaches to the dress. Not at the waist, but at the top of the dress; at the shoulders or the back, depending upon the way the top of the dress is cut. It can be any different length, from the same length as the dress to extending well beyond the back hemline. This is the one type of train, if made with a sheer fabric, that would be lovely on a Vera Wang sheath dress for a beach or garden wedding.

Cinderella Prom color wedding dresses Dresses

Cinderella prom dresses can come in many different designs and styles each design has its own unique interest and detail. Every one of these dresses can have very different cuts and it is important to understand what figures they best suit. Cinderella prom dresses are not just dresses made up from layer and layer of fabric and netting. They can also be bustled and have picked up skirts. These Victorian style Cinderella prom dresses are becoming more and trendier every day with a lot of young girls choosing these over the fairytale fluffy Cinderella style prom dresses. The new trend for this style Cinderella prom dresses has opened up a whole new range of simply stylish gowns. The styles to look out for this season are including the return of the polka dot, wide sashes in clashing colors and balloon style hemlines. Compared to last year's collection this year's designs have really taken on a whole new life.

Types of Cinderella Prom Dresses:

Dropped waist

The Cinderella prom dresses with a dropped waist can improve you overall silhouette. The full skirt flows gracefully out from the hip line emphasizing your waist. If you choose this as a strapless design then you can dress up your bare shoulders with a lavish necklace or shoulder wrap. Remember to choose designs where the embellishment is concentrated around the body features you want to show off. Beading and sequins can draw the eyes in. so if you want people to look at you waist, make sure most of the details are in this area.

Fishtail

These prom dresses go a step further than the dropped waist. They have a fitted bodice which closely hugs your thighs and then the full skirt flows out the same. These style dresses are more suited to the hourglass figure, but can add curves to the skinner figures. This look is very Hollywood and can look very glamorous but you may need some practice before the prom night, sitting and dancing can be perfected in your bedroom.

Square Cut

The square cut neckline is a very flattering cut. This look is more suited towards the bigger bust line as the straight cut across the bust tends to gape forward on the more flatter bust lines. Alterations can improve this fit but make sure the front is sitting flat against your chest and make sure you stoop down rather than bend forward.

Sweet heart

Sweet heart necklines are excellent for figures with a flatter chest. The extra shape detail on the bust can give the illusion that there is more there than there really is. Again with beach wedding dresses this style prom dress the fitting around the bust is very important and a few alterations may be necessary for the bust line to lay flat.

Plunging neckline

The plunging neckline has been seen on evening dresses for a number of seasons but now designers like Alyce Designs, Xcite and Xtreme have incorporated this dramatic sexy detail into the Cinderella prom dresses. Although this look is very daring it is still a show stopper. You with definitely need some lingerie tape with you during the night in case the front starts to gape away from the body.

Halter neck

Cinderella prom dresses are perfect styles for emphasizing your best features. Halter neck designs are perfect for framing your face and drawing the eyes to your upper body. The dramatic neck straps can keep the back of the dress open and your shoulders will not look as bare as if you had chosen a strapless design. When choosing this style it is best to find one with beading and sequins around the neckline this can eliminate the need for a necklace which may look lost against the fabric.
