Wedding dress in the style of "Provence"

Every girl dreams of a wedding that would be remembered for a lifetime. Wedding dress in the style of "Provence" is chosen by people who are in love with the elegance and charm of France.

For most people, a wedding dress is a white robe with a full skirt that makes the bride look like a marshmallow. But the model of a dress in Provence style will disappoint conservatives. It does not use puffy skirts, which allows to emphasize the refinement of the figure. These dresses are always sewn simple, but with taste. They do not differ by pomposity and excess of decorative elements.

In terms of a stylist, such a dress is suitable for absolutely everyone, because it personifies the femininity and purity of the bride. Lace neckline looks perfect on sophisticated girls, and cut with a high waist, from which comes a full skirt, always allows you to hide a small tummy. Modern brides who take pride in the slimness of their legs can choose a short dress, and those that honor the tradition dress the floor with a train. Models of dresses with a corset help to make a girl with curvaceous forms as refined and feminine as possible. If the train is lined behind the assembly gait will always look smooth.

The classic style of the dress is a floor-length apparel with a train. Instead of sleeves, there are straps of various widths, and it is sewn exclusively from pastel, light-colored fabrics. Typically, a dress in this style has a fitted cut that is slightly flared to the floor. Instead of a belt or corset on the dress there is an elastic band or an assembly, which is decorated in different ways. On the back can be a neckline, which is decorated with beautiful lace, but there are also more advanced models.

A dress of this style personifies femininity and grace. In this model, there is completely no loop, and if it is, it is quite small. The bride in it looks very tender and romantic. The very same lace can be sewn to the sleeves and the front of the dress and look like a cape. An ideal accessory to such a dress would be a wreath that turns into a veil.

This style is distinguished by a V-neckline neckline, but the main distinguishing feature is a round neckline on the back, which is decorated with translucent embroidery. These dresses are preferred to wear on the wedding day, bold girls who are proud of their figure and posture. Elements of lace and embroidery may also be present on the corset of the dress and sleeves.

The main feature of this dress is milky shade. This dress can be attributed to the classic Provence, because the cut is not burdened with excess decorative details. Some models may differ in a V-neck on the back or be fitted and completely strapless. Such dresses are always sewn from natural fabrics.

Usually dresses in the style of "Provence" is chosen for summer celebrations.But if the wedding is scheduled for a colder period, say for the fall, a model with sleeves will be the ideal option. Such a dress has all the advantages of a classic and emphasizes the grace of the figure, but thanks to translucent sleeves that do not spoil the elegant image, it protects the bride from the wind during the cold season.

Dresses in the style of "Provence" made to sew from natural and light fabrics. The easy advantage of such a style is easy carelessness, so worrying about the fact that natural fabric will not hesitate. Most often for sewing materials such as satin, cotton, chiffon, silk, satin are used. Lace is often used as decoration, embroidery, and flounces, fringe, and assemblies are made from fabrics.

Another advantage of the Provencal style can be called practicality. The girl who chooses it can not be inconvenienced, being all the triumph at an uncomfortable hairpin, because the main characteristic of the style is rustic simplicity. An ideal addition to the dress in the style of "Provence" will be ballet flats or elegant shoes with a small heel. You can use feminine sandals on a small wedge.

Antique silver jewelry in the form of brooches, pendants, necklaces and earrings from grandma's box will fit well into the elegant style of Provence. If the dress is decorated with pearl threads, the pearl necklace will be the perfect complement to it, though it should not be coarse.

Fresh flowers can decorate the bride's hair or the belt of the dress itself. Wedding bouquet should also fit into the style of Provence and consist exclusively of fresh flowers. Compositions of wildflowers and fragrant Provencal herbs perfectly complement the image. Lavender can be the basis of a bouquet, and violet, anemones, pansies, hydrangeas, blue or lilac carnations can complement the composition. Well, if the shade of colors will be in harmony with the color of the dress.

To harmonize the image of the olive, carelessness must be followed even in the hair. Classic styling with perfectly laid strands, the same curls and all that usually love the bride will be inappropriate here. Provencal wedding hairstyle can be described in two words - a slight mess. A light mess in the hair and a carelessly braided braid, from which several strands, as it were, accidentally knocked out — this is what harmoniously complements the image. But remember that even carelessness and mess should be beautiful.

Provencal wedding does not tolerate excessive cosmetics on the face of the bride. Natural beauty is what is important in this case to emphasize. You do not need to use bright eye shadows and lipstick, get carried away with foundation and powder. Eyebrows can not touch or tint their natural color. Their shape should adorn the face, give it a slight playfulness and naivety, then there will be an exact hit in the image. Lips can be tinted with a pink shine, and make-up with eyes and paint with a pencil.

Feminine and romantic style of the bride should match the groom. At the wedding in the Provencal style, he was supposed to be in elegant, but comfortable clothes for himself. A classic shirt, vintage suit, waistcoat and trousers are the perfect combination.Many people prefer to wear a bow tie to the celebration of the color of the shirt and suspenders - this is very appropriate.

Today, the Provence style wedding is usually called lavender, which is connected precisely with the lilac shade in which it is usually made. Flowers of lavender can be present at the celebration in everything, ranging from decorative elements for dresses, to the decoration of the hall.

Often lavender weddings are played in tents covered with lilac curtains, and lively bouquets of lavender are on the tables with dishes in the form of decorations. Even a wedding invitation is made in lavender style, so that the guests know exactly which outfit to choose for the celebration.
