Fitted, Mermaid or trumpet, what’s the difference?
Mermaid
A mermaid gown is the most dramatic of the three. It’s fitted through the bodice, waist, and hips, and flares out sharply at or below the knee. The “tail” creates that signature mermaid shape — bold, glamorous, and very hourglass-enhancing.
Fitted
A fitted wedding dress follows the shape of your body from bust through to the hips. From there, it may fall straight down or gently flare out. The focus is on showing your curves without a dramatic flare. Think sleek, elongating, and modern.

Trumpet
A trumpet silhouette sits between fitted and mermaid. It hugs the body through the waist and hips but begins to flare higher — usually mid-thigh. The flare is softer and more gradual than a mermaid, making it easier to move in while still giving that wow-factor shape.
Column
A column gown falls straight down from the hips with very little flare. It skims the body rather than hugging it tightly, creating a long, clean line. Effortless, modern, and perfect for brides who love understated elegance.
Column = straight and minimal
Fitted = curve-enhancing and sleek
Trumpet = balanced flare
Mermaid = high drama curves
