This year oodles of women will be getting married and with so much to do preparing for the wedding, you want to make sure of two things; 1) that you find a beautiful wedding dress and 2) that you buy a good petticoat to wear underneath the bridal gown so that the dress will look as exquisite on you as it did on the mannequin that you saw it on when you chose it.
Today, many women think that buying the wedding gown alone is enough when in fact, they forget all of the little details that go along with the bridal attire. Most all women remember the bridal shoes, the bridal veil, bridal clutch, and bridal hair accessories, nonetheless, most women don't know that the dress you selected from the catalog, from an online boutique or in a store window looks fabulous and full because it is being shown with a petticoat worn underneath to give it that complete attention and alluring charm.
First you need to know the type of wedding gown that you purchased as the petticoats are made to fit your body according to the bridal dress itself. At Simply Delicious Lingerie & Bridal we carry an array of petticoats for gowns such as the A-Line gown, ball gown, the grand ball gown, otherwise known as the princess gown, the mermaid gown, the trumpet gown, short mini bridal dress or knee length bridal dress, the crinoline vintage dress, etc.
Do keep in mind ladies that it doesn't stop there. You'll need to know how many hoops you desire in the petticoat, how many layers your balmoral needs to be? This determines the desired effect of 'poof' that your gown will have, otherwise know has the fullness effect. Petticoats have been around for years and years and grew with popularity in each new decade.
The practice of wearing petticoats was established in 1585 when women began wearing them underneath their clothes for added fashion of their shapes. Worn in numerous ways since then, they have become an icon on fashion for the modern day woman when Christian Dior revived their look and functionality in 1947.
Doris Day and Grace Kelly wore petticoats in the 1950s and by the time Gone With the Wind made it big, every woman wanted to wear one. Most women wore these to give more appeal to their clothing, however many women wore them that had a big tush or large hips to shield or hide them. Could you blame them?
My first glimpse to the petticoat was in my younger childhood days when I watched 'Petticoat Junction' a 1960s television series at my grandmothers house where the opening sequence displayed three petticoats hanging out over the side of a railroad water tank where three sisters were skinny-dipping. Some women don't even know what a petticoat is when you ask them, but if you know fashion, you know petticoats.
By the mid 20th century the petticoats were being replaced by the slim fitting slip. Petticoats still are the best means (in my opinion) to give your bridal gown the desired range of fullness that it needs, so by all means please don't skimp on the petticoat when you've spent hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on the wedding dress itself. These two go together like peanut butter and jelly. You really shouldn't have one without the other.
