Measured for an Accurate Fit
When shopping for a Confirmation dress, it is important to make sure you have accurate measurements. Call into our shop and we can help you ensure these measurements, such as chest, waist, and length, are accurate for the best fit of your bespoke Confirmation dress. This will go a long way towards creating an outfit that is comfortable to wear and the perfect look on Confirmation day.
Choosing Styles for Different Body Types.
Depending on body shape, it can be tricky finding an off-the-rack Confirmation dress that fits well. This is where dressmakers really shine: we can advise on styles that flatter the figure of any individual.
If a confirmation candidate is petite and short, A-line dresses or fit-and-flare silhouettes can help create the illusion of length. On the other hand, if a confirmation candidate has a fuller frame a shift dress or wrap dress gives the outfit a flattering shape. Whatever the body shape, dressed can be designed that both flatter and feel good to wear – the day can be a long one, so it’s important that the dress is comfortable as well as beautiful.
Colours and Fabrics To Complement Your Skin Tone
Choosing a Confirmation dress doesn’t just involve finding the right shape – there are several other elements to consider, such as colour and fabric. It’s important to select a dress that complements the confirmation candidate’s skin tone, as well as the preferred aesthetic and dress trends that year.
There isn’t one perfect Confirmation look, so talk to us about your ideas. We will take the time with you to consider everything – fit, body shape, trends, fabrics and colours – to create an appropriate and stylish outfit you’ll treasure both on the day and afterwards.
