Wedding Dress Fabrics

Which Fabric is Right for You?

Linking to the blog post I made on wedding dress silhouettes, finding the right silhouette is as important as finding the right fabric. Some girls really suit a light, floaty chiffon while others can carry off a luxurious silk.

Some fabrics are best suited to different wedding styles and different seasons. It wouldn’t make a lot of sense to wear thick velvet to a summer beach wedding, for example.

Satin
6813 by Amelie Bridal	Satin looks luxurious, rich and glossy. It makes an amazing impact and looks best on boned and structured dresses. Satin is made from silk or a silk blend. It’s a bit too hot for a summer wedding but it’s good for formal, simple Spring or Autumn weddings. My Opinion I’m not a fan of satin. On an unstructured dress it can crease around the tummy, even on very slim figure.
