What body type does the ball gown fit best?
The full skirt, fitted bodice, and cinched waist of the ball gown lends well to most body types. It fits the “pear” perfectly; by accentuating the décolletée and minimizing fuller hips. It hides the look of broader shoulders for the “inverted triangle” with it’s grand lower half. And it will graciously add curves for those with “boyish” figures with it’s exaggerated lines. However this style isn’t the best fit for those who are short and/or possess a tiny frame as the volume alone could distract from their petite beauty.
