1- What is the difference between custom-made versus off-the-rack wedding dresses? Designing for petite body types is different from designing for regular sizes.Simply scaling down a pattern intended for regular sizes to fit a more petite frame isn't the best fit. Petite bodies have different measurements that need to be takeninto account. Altering a regular-sized garment to fit a petite frame can be done withsurgery, but there are better solutions for achieving the perfect fit.
2- What is the best silhouette for petite brides? Designers and stylists suggest that certain silhouettes like A-line, fit and flare, and simple sheath dresses suit the Petite bride body type better than others. Madelange agrees with this sentiment. Because accurate placement of details, embellishments, and garment construction is crucial for designing for Petite brides.
3- What are the best fabrics for a Petite wedding dress?
It's best to steer clear of heavy fabrics like Mikado and satin for petite frames, as they can be overwhelming. Instead, opt for lightweight fabrics such as crepe, lace, and silk satin. It's also a good idea to avoid large prints and lace embroidery.
