1. How to Choose a Petticoat for Your Wedding Dress
As we know, if you want to look the best on your BIG DAY, aside from wedding dress
itself, petticoat---a wedding accessory is one more thing you need to pay attention to. But, it
seems that many brides may neglect it. Actually, a good petticoat can add an elegant and
full appearance to the bridal dress. It can even make a normal simple wedding dress look
noble and classy. It is used to adjust the shape of the wedding dress and can hold the
wedding dress out in a pleasingly domed shape and give the impression of a smaller waist.
Different petticoats can be used to give dress different looking.
When our customers select a wedding dress from us, they often meet a problem. That is,
how to choose a right petticoat for her dress. Here, we would like to give you some advice
about how to choose a wedding petticoat.
There are various types of petticoat available, including A-line petticoat, two hoop
petticoat, three hoop petticoat, three hoops train petticoat, two hoop mermaid petticoat, six
hoop petticoat, four hoop petticoat, natural puffy petticoat, six hoop petticoat with net, slim
mermaid petticoat and two hoops train petticoat. But generally, the most common ones are
naturally shaped petticoat and petticoat with hoops.
Naturally shaped wedding petticoat is generally made with Organza. Compared with
petticoat with hoop, it’s more suitable for a wedding dress made with organza or tulle since
this kind of fabrics has a lighter weight, which doesn’t require the additional power to hold
it. The purpose of using naturally shaped wedding petticoat is only to bring out a better
domed silhouette.
Petticoat with hoops is mainly used for satin princess wedding dress, ball gown wedding
dress, wedding dress with Chapel Train or Monarch train/royal train, as well as gown with
ruffled hemline.
2. This kind of petticoat always has two hoops or three hoops. Some of them have tulle,
some of them have train. To give the wedding dress a better and natural presentation, we
generally choose tulle petticoats. The number of hops will be depended on the length of the
skirt as well as the silhouette of wedding dress. Petticoat with train is suitable for a wedding
dress with chapel or monarch train.
Ball gown/Princess Satin dress: if you choose the wedding dress made with satin, you’d
better not choose petticoat that doesn’t have hoops, otherwise, it will make the gown looks
like A-line style. The reason for this is satin is one of the heaviest fabrics, only petticoat
with hoops can hold it. If the setting is not so thick, when choosing petticoat, there are two
important factors to consider. First, the petticoat needs to have hopes, and second, you’d
better choose tulle petticoat. The more layers of tulle it has, the better, which will avoid the
shape of hoops reflected in the skirt.
Wedding dress with chapel train, monarch /royal train: if your wedding dress skirt is a
chapel train or court train style, or tiered wedding skirts, you must choose the bone
petticoat, as it can make your wedding skirt more fully and fluffy, creating a perfect and
gorgeous style and sense, showing a royal vision. If we use naturally shaped petticoat, it
will seriously affect the shape of the skirt and train. Also, the petticoat will deform under
the weight of the train.
Wedding dress with crinkled skirt or ruffled skirt: this kind of wedding dress is to attract
people’s attention to the waist and give people the impression of slimness. Only skirts in
fully domed shape can deliver the crinkled details, bringing the contrasting effect.
A-line petticoat suits the wedding dress with tight waist part and
puffy skirt.
3. Two hoops petticoat suits small A-line dresses.
Three hoops petticoat suits A-line dresses not very puffy.
Train petticoat suits A-line dresses with a small train.
4. Two hoops mermaid petticoat suits dresses with slim body and a small
train.
Two hoops mermaid petticoat suits dresses with slim body and a small
train.
5. One hoop narrow mermaid petticoat suits a slim mermaid dress
.
A two hoops train petticoat suits an A line dress with middle length
train.
6. Finally, we sincerely wish each bride can find a perfect match petticoat with dress and
hold a wonderful wedding.
