No one ever said you have to go wild with a red wedding dress and pick out a gown with bold embellishments, stick it up with plenty of stones and match it with bright colors, unless you wanted to. Most women feel the need to tone down their wedding dresses when they choose the color red. Are you one of them? It’s normal to feel this way as many brides-to-be are drawn to the idea of wearing a red dress on their wedding day, but prefers to keep it simple.
Since red is definitely a striking color, staying away from embellishments, fancy trails and too many types of fabrics is simply understandable. If you’re not going for a fantasy, medieval or costume-based wedding gown, but you’ve decided on going conventional by wearing red on THE DAY, you can get inspiration from celebrities’ elegant red-carpet dresses.
The secret is not to be fancy; but to be picky. Choose a simple red dress that would match you perfectly, accentuate your assets and hide your unflattering features. The only way to do this is to learn your body shapes and see how you could make a simple red dress the most memorable wedding gown your guests has ever seen.
