Fitted wedding dresses perfect for any style of wedding ceremony.

 Mermaid styling, as the name suggests, is fitted to your knees and flares out, creating a silhouette reminiscent of a mermaid’s tail. On the other hand, a trumpet design is fitted down to your mid-thigh and then flares, offering a more subtle yet equally stunning look.

These fitted designs are particularly flattering for those with an hourglass figure or a pear-shaped body, accentuating their curves and showcasing their best features when it is tight in all the right places. This figure-framing silhouette will make a statement and command attention, saying, ‘I am a woman; hear me roar.’

Leah S Designs bridal alterations for a custom fit.

Our alterations department is on site with seamstresses to offer advice about achieving a body hugging contoured look for your body shape because not everyone is the same. Your gown should be snug but not too tight that it distorts the original silhouette.

Types of fabrics used for tight fitting wedding gowns.

At Leah S Designs, creative design, structure, and quality fabrics are the keys to flattering fitted gowns. A nicely weighted stretch crepe will make a gown fit perfectly on most body types, especially on an hourglass figure, which means your waist is smaller than your bust and hip. Lace gowns in mermaid styles give a traditional feel or lux satins for the classic bride.

Accessories for fitted wedding dress styling.

Fitted wedding dresses need a statement hairpiece and veil. Add to the body-hugging drama with a long cathedral veil. Possibly with a short blusher, you can wear after your ceremony and photos when you take off the cathedral veil.

 Choose a matching or complementary lace-edge veil if your gown is lace and fitted. If you are a satin mermaid, one with satin trim would suit you. A detachable train is also another option which will give your gown two looks.

Different Necklines for Fitted Wedding Dresses

Choosing the perfect neckline for your fitted wedding dress can enhance your natural beauty and complement your style. Here’s a guide to some popular necklines to consider:

Sweetheart

The sweetheart neckline, resembling the top half of a heart, is a classic choice that accentuates the décolletage and adds a romantic touch. It’s particularly flattering for brides with a fuller bust, providing support while showcasing a graceful curve.

Halter

The bridal halter neckline features straps that wrap around the neck, exposing the shoulders and back. This style is ideal for brides with toned arms and shoulders, adding a contemporary and chic vibe to the dress.

Tailored Off-the-Shoulder fitted wedding dresses.

Off-the-shoulder necklines highlight the collarbone and shoulders, exuding timeless elegance. This neckline is perfect for brides who want to combine traditional and trendy elements, creating a romantic and refined appearance.

High Neck

The high neck or mock neck is an excellent choice for a more modest and vintage-inspired look. It offers full coverage while adding a touch of sophistication and grace, which is ideal for formal weddings.

Strapless

Strapless necklines are a timeless favorite. They offer a clean and classic look that draws attention to the shoulders and arms. This lets the bride add a statement necklace to frame the decolletage. Or keep it simple for understated elegance. It’s perfect for brides who want a traditional yet modern silhouette. You may choose a romantic lace detail or a satin finish.

There are many options available at Leah S Designs bridal boutique in Melbourne, you may choose from sweetheart necklines with illusion straps plunging necklines which use the straps for bust support whilst enhancing your hourglass silhouette.

What Leah S Designs real Brides are saying about the fit.

Jess

After a not so great experience at another popular bridal store I was recommended Leah S Designs by a family member

Wow was I blown away. Everyone was so friendly, the dresses were incredible and Leah knew exactly what I wanted and made me feel so comfortable and supported.

Being plus size I’ve had this fear since getting engaged that no dress will fit me but every single one I tried on did!

I found my dress (it was the first one I tried on) and honestly am so grateful I came across such an incredible store.

I’d you’re considering booking an appointment please do. I promise you won’t regret it!

Sarah Gibbons
After a few less than 5 star boutique experiences, we made the drive out to Leah S and were not at all disappointed. Every gown I tried actually FIT my body, no embarrassing clips, clamps and modesty patches. Lyn brought suggestions to the changeroom that I would not have looked at twice, but make me feel gorgeous when I tried them on. My wedding obsessed son was with me and they made him feel so welcome and special. He can not wait to go back for fittings with me! Thankyou.

Dress range was awesome, Lyn (my consultant) was absolutely amazing. She was able to help so much, especially considering I went in with only a vague idea of what I liked. She was able to help me not only find the dress I liked most, but suggest a few relatively minor alterations that had a surprisingly big impact and turned A Dress, into The Dress.
Thank you Lyn, for the wonderful experience!
