Okay, so I was digging into this whole wedding dress thing, specifically the necklines, and let me tell you, it’s a rabbit hole! I started off just browsing, you know, looking at pretty dresses, and then I realized how much the neckline changes the whole vibe of the dress.
First, I started with Google, just typing in “wedding dress necklines” and BAM! A ton of articles and pictures popped up. I spent a good chunk of time just scrolling through, trying to get a feel for the different styles. I even started making a list, which, let me tell you, got pretty long.
Then, I decided to get a bit more organized. I grabbed a notebook and started sketching out the different necklines. I’m no artist, but it helped me visualize things better. I drew a simple stick figure and then added different necklines to it – like a sweetheart, a V-neck, a halter, all that stuff.
- Sweetheart
- V-neck
- Halter
- Square
- Straight
Next, I moved on to Pinterest. Oh boy, Pinterest is dangerous! I created a board just for wedding dress necklines and started pinning like crazy. I found so many variations of each neckline, it was mind-blowing. There’s the classic sweetheart, but then there’s also a semi-sweetheart, which is a bit more subtle. Who knew, right?
After that, I wanted to see how these necklines looked on different body types. So, I searched for articles about that and found some helpful tips. Like, apparently, a sweetheart neckline is good for making your torso look longer, which is cool. Or a V-neck can make your shoulders appear narrower. It’s all about finding what works best for you, I guess.
What I found
And because I can only try on so many dresses in one go, I found some pictures of real women in different gowns. I created a new folder on my computer and saved the ones I liked. The pictures helped me see how these gowns look in real life, on real women.
Honestly, it’s been a fun little project. I’ve learned a lot about wedding dress necklines, and I think I have a better idea of what I like now. It’s not just about what’s trendy, but what makes you feel good and confident. And really, that’s what matters the most, right?
