The Perfect Fit and Flare Bridal gown

One of the key silhouettes we encourage our bride's to try at Dotty is Fit and Flare gowns. This is the perfect shape to show off every bride's figure. The nipped in waist and subtle flare at the bottom of the dress accentuates and creates the illusion of curves. They are a staple style to try!

There's plenty of different ways to execute the fit and flare gown, below are a few of our favourite styles that we have in Dotty at the moment.

The image features a stunning bride wearing a minimalist, modern wedding gown against a textured gray background. The gown is sleek and form-fitting, with a deep V-neckline that adds a touch of elegance and sophistication. The fabric of the dress is smooth and slightly structured, enhancing the bride's silhouette beautifully. Her dark, flowing hair is styled in loose waves, cascading over her shoulders, complementing the simplicity of the gown. She accessorizes with delicate drop earrings, adding a subtle sparkle to her refined look. The overall composition of the image exudes an air of timeless grace and understated luxury.

One of our favourite looks is a fit and flare dress with an overskirt added to create more drama. Add the overskirt for the ceremony to give you a long train and then remove in the evening for a completely different look that's perfect to spend the rest of the evening in!

If you're looking for something unique and a little bit different, try this bardot brocade style dress by Allure. It is a showstopper with its floral patterned fabric, this gown perfectly balances detail whilst still remaining subtle. The mikado fabric really holds you in and creates a gorgeous silhouette, great for those brides wanting to feel more support and structure in their dress.
