If you are getting married in 2017, then you are likely already in the midst of wedding planning, but may have yet to make the difficult wedding dress decision. Don't worry that you will never decide on the perfect bridal gown for you because there are so many out there made to flatter every figure. The spring and fall 2017 bridal gown trends have already been predicted, and you can use them for inspiration when choosing your gown and even to help you disguise any aspects of your figure that you would like to draw attention away from.  

Read on to learn about the spring and fall 2017 bridal gown trends and how to use them to enhance your figure. 

Spring 2017 Bridal Gown Trends: 3D Flowers and Beautiful Bows

If you consider yourself a "girly girl" and want an extra feminine bridal gown, then you will love the two largest predicted bridal gown trends for spring and summer weddings, which are gowns covered in 3D flowers and those with large, feminine bows.

You can use both the 3D flowers and bows to draw attention to areas of your body you love and like ruffles, both can add the illusion of curves to an area of your body where they are placed strategically. 

For example, if you have a thin, straight frame that you would like to add the illusion of curves to, you can cover the bodice of your gown with 3D flowers and place a bow on the back to enhance your bottom. On the other hand, if you would like wear a fitted gown, yet don't have an hourglass figure, having 3D flowers "sprinkled" throughout the bodice of your dress and over the skirt of it, yet not around your waist, can make your waist appear much smaller and provide the illusion of an hourglass figure. 

Fall 2017 Bridal Gown Trends: High-Neck or Off-the-Shoulder Necklines

Gowns covered in 3D flowers and accented with bows are projected to remain popular in fall of 2017, but two additional fall trends include high-neck gowns and off-the-shoulder gowns. Of course, you will have to choose just one neckline, but when you take your body type into account, you may realize that one is just perfect for you. 

High necklines are perfect for you if you have somewhat square shoulders and/or a smaller chest you would like to appear more voluminous on your big day. Another great advantage of a high neckline is that it draws the eye up to your beautiful face. 

Off-the-shoulder necklines, also called Sabrina necklines, are very flattering for women with pear body types and those with larger busts. This neckline also draws the eye up, so all attention is on your beautiful shoulders, neck, and face. 

If your wedding day is arriving this year, then like most soon-to-be-brides, you may be having a tough time deciding what the perfect bridal gown is for you. To make your choice easier, keep these spring and fall 2017 bridal gown trends in mind along with how to use them strategically to enhance your best features and look your very best on your wedding day.
