How to Choose the Perfect Prom Dress for Your Body Type
Finding the right prom dress isn't just about following trends — it's about finding a silhouette that makes you feel confident, beautiful, and completely yourself. At Vellure Couture, our stylists work with every body type to find the perfect match.
Hourglass Figure
Mermaid and fit-and-flare gowns are particularly stunning, emphasising your natural curves.
Pear Shape
A-line and ballgown skirts skim over the hips and create a beautifully balanced silhouette. Look for embellished bodices to draw the eye upward.
Apple Shape
Empire waist gowns and flowing chiffon skirts create an elegant, elongated line. V-necklines are particularly flattering.
Petite Frame
Column gowns with vertical detailing create the illusion of height. Avoid overly voluminous skirts.
Tall & Slender
Ballgowns, dramatic trains, and voluminous skirts look spectacular on taller frames.
