Sexy Bridesmaid Dress
How Sexy is Too Sexy For A Bridesmaid Dress?
Sexy is a relative term, so what is considered a sexy
bridesmaids dress can be relative too. Religious
beliefs, cultural customs and personal preference all
play a part in determining what exactly constitutes a
sexy bridesmaids dress.
There is no accounting for taste and personal choice,
but there are certain unspoken rules about crossing the
line between tantalizingly sexy and downright
unacceptable. Excessively low cut, short or tight
dresses are probably not a good idea for a bridesmaids
dress. You may be asking what the criteria is for low
cut, short and tight. Again, such definitions can
differ, but a dress that leaves nothing to the
imagination is most likely not appropriate for a wedding
function.
Every bride wants her bridesmaids to look a certain way
and every bridesmaid certainly wants to feel attractive
in her dress. Therefore, it is reasonable to look for a
sexy bridesmaids dress. However, there are two things
that should be considered- where your wedding is going
to be held and the comfort level of your bridesmaids.
If you are having a traditional wedding in a church or
another religious facility, you may want to consider the
character of this location in your choice of
bridesmaids dress. Is it a conservative institution?
What are the beliefs and codes concerning dress? Would
an excessively low cut, tight or short dress be
offensive in this setting? How about more modest lengths
like just above the knee? After all, what is appropriate
in a Vegas chapel may not necessarily mesh in temple,
church or mosque. Wherever you are planning on holding
your wedding, you should definitely inquire regarding
dress code. If you feel that abiding by these rules
would compromise the vision of your wedding, you should
probably choose another location.
A sexy bridesmaids dress is a matter of perception.
However, Modern Bride reports a few basic rules to go by
for preserving the line between being sexy and plain
good taste:
-No more than one inch above the knee.
-No more than one inch of cleavage.
-Balance form fitting items with more flowing elements.
For example, balance a tight fitting bodice with an
A-line skirt.
-Anything that rides up or bunches in places that it
shouldnt is an absolute no-no.
Of course, sexy doesnt necessarily equate with
revealing. Sexiness can be defined with subtlety,
elegance and class. What the eye doesnt see can be
sexier than what is in plain view. Dresses that barely
skim curves, dramatic fabrics and colors can be far more
alluring than leaving nothing to the imagination. You
can also compromise by including a removable shawl or
jacket to cover riskier ensembles during the parts of
the wedding that call for a more conservative look.
Whatever dress you choose, make sure that your
bridesmaids are comfortable with it. Remember, people
have varying notions about how much skin is appropriate
to reveal. The bottom line is that a sexy bridesmaids
dress should make your bridesmaids look and feel
special. This is more likely to happen if your
bridesmaid can feel confident and comfortable in the
dress that youve chosen.
