An Uplifting Message for Thicker Women

While I know it's normal for women to diet before their Big Day, I offer uplifting message to all thicker "brides to be", and I would like to dispel two myths so that they may be free when choosing their bridal gown.


There are two myths I would like to dispel:

Myth #1      Thicker women can not wear Cinderella (ball) gowns because they make them look larger.  This is absolutely untrue.  Ball gowns can be very flattering on larger women primarily because women who are larger up top can really fill the gown out and give the gown more presence.  If the cut of the gown is slightly highwaisted this can be a wonderful way to create a slimming effect.  Often times pear shaped women can have very flattering shoulders, back, and cleavage.  These can be assets to show case with a strapless or sweat heart ball gown.

Myth  # 2    Thicker women cannot wear mermaid looks.  This again may be misguiding  The mermaid dress is designed to emphasize curves.  The curvier you are the better this dress actually looks.  With a nice strong undergarment often plus size women can really create an hour glass image using the mermaid cut.  I would say that the mermaid cut and the trumpet cuts are excellent choices for plus size women especially if your waist is smaller than your hip line and your breast line.   The mermaid and the trumpet cut will work to show your curves instead of making you look rounder.


And also "brides to be" remember that on this day, you must love yourself.  At the end of the aisle is a man who has chosen to spend the rest of his life with you.  In the audience are your invited guest who love you for who you are.  And amongst them are many men and women who can appreciate your outstanding beauty so don't be too hard on yourself.  I hope I didn't offend anyone with the use of the term thicker.  It's a term of endearment and I prefer it to plus size.  Now this doesn't mean hop off your diets; but, be you.  Be all of you.

LOVE ROBERT
