From simple to chique
Have you already found your wedding dress but is it just a little bit too mundane? Before you decide to change it for another: please stop. With only a few alterations we can change your wedding dress from simple to chique.
Ten ways to make wedding material from a basic wedding dress
1.Decorate your wedding dress with beads and paillettes. You can have this done at a sewing workshop, for instance.
2.Wedding dresses instantly look more complete with a veil or train. If you add it to your look, you will also look somewhat more dressed for the occasion.
3.Wear gloves: très elegant! You can go for long gloves up to your armpits, gloves over your elbows or short gloves that only cover your hands.
4.Wedding dresses decorated with fresh flowers are really pretty. It is very romantic too and also very practical. You can attach the flowers with pins or just have a corsage made out of fresh flowers. Are you an exotic bride? Then you could go for coloured, tropical flowers 5.Buy a beautiful necklace or other jewelery to wear with the wedding dress. Also great: a beautiful broche with stras stones for instance. it will have that haute couture look à la designers Prada and Armani!
6.Wear something over your wedding dress: a jacket, bolero or shawl for example! They are for sale at many bridal shops. This will also come in handy if it gets a bit nippy and it makes bigger sizes suddenly look smaller. 7.Tie a ribon around your waist. At the haberdashery (tip: A. Boeken Fournituren in Amsterdam) you can choose from all kinds of ribbons that you can use to finish your bridal look. It only goes to show that you don't have to be a designer to create cool clothing!
8.A wedding dress will look chique right away if it is the right fit. If possible, then, you should have your dress made to fit. That is what all the big fashion houses do too. Assepoester has a team of in-house coupeuses that can give you advice and that mend or alter your wedding dress.
9.Choose to wear something in or on your hair: a hat, tiara or diadem. Or maybe flowers. When you look great from top to toe, it doen't really matter that your wedding dress is somewhat simple, because it is simple, but also chique!
