Getting married after 40 is an event that happens to many representatives of the fair sex. Some are walking down the aisle for the first time, while others are destined to re-create marriage bonds. And someone wants to once again take a vow of fidelity to their beloved, having lived with him for more than a dozen years. And you can’t do without a beautiful outfit on such an important day. What should wedding dresses be like for women 40-50 years old?

Styles

Famous lines from the song: “The main thing is that the style fits!” can become the main rule for choosing any dress for a lady after 40 years. Pretentious models with lots of decor are suitable for young girls. And mature women who know their worth choose elegant, discreet styles with a classic cut.

Mature wedding

For those beauties who decide to get married in a long dress, straight dresses or godet styles with a slightly flared skirt, or a-line dresses are suitable. Greek-style clothes are considered universal outfits, which often have a high waist, light flowing fabrics that fall to the ground. They perfectly hide small flaws in the figure in the form of a protruding tummy and massive hips.

Floor-length wedding dress options for mature brides

For a wedding ceremony in a close circle of friends, dresses of medium length are suitable. Slender brides can opt for shorter options - knee-length. In addition to the styles listed above, a sheath dress is considered a beautiful type of attire that can decorate every woman. For those with a thin waist, a now fashionable model with a full skirt, originally from the 50s, will suit you.

In short length

Usually the figure of beautiful ladies after forty years differs from their parameters in their youth. And it is important to choose clothes that will cover the unfavorable places in the silhouette and emphasize the beautiful ones: the chest, waist.

When choosing one style or another, you need to remember one rule: those places that need to be hidden should be hidden under an adjacent, but not tight, fabric.

Convertible dresses are one of the great types of clothing for mature brides. Different ways of draping straps will help reveal beautiful arms and shoulders. Or, conversely, cover areas that have lost elasticity.

Different ways of draping

The sleeve and neckline play an important role in wedding styles. In summer decorations, they can be made of light openwork materials, which will simultaneously play the role of decorating the outfit and unobtrusively cover plump arms and problem areas in the neckline area.

Bride's look: hairstyle

A successful hairstyle largely determines how good the bride’s overall image will be. Focus on minimalism, restraint and elegance. “Low, careless buns, smooth hair without additional decorations or braids are suitable,” says Inna Shikhova , wedding stylist at the BMWedding agency. - Boho-style hairstyles and careless curls will also be good. This will make the image fresh and romantic. It’s worth giving up crisp curls in favor of light, elegant options.” Leave heavy, massive hair accessories like tiaras and tiaras alone. They will not decorate an elegant bride.

Color spectrum

To wear a white wedding dress or to wear a festive dress of a different shade? Only the bride can answer this question. Light shades rejuvenate and refresh the skin. Every woman who is over... A traditional white dress for a bride is not always appropriate and may not play into the hands of a woman over 50 years old. Choose new tones that are not typical for your everyday wardrobe. After all, on this day you need to surprise your betrothed. Cream, champagne, light pink, mint, ivory, ice blue - the pastel range is extensive.

Cream with draped waist

For a wedding ceremony on exotic islands or in the hot summer, active people full of strength and energy will choose rich, deep, but not flashy tones. If they are present in the groom’s clothes or accessories, the duet will turn out to be harmonious and original at the same time.

Greek style

You can choose a suitable wedding dress among evening and cocktail clothes. They are rich not only in a variety of shades, but also in interesting styles for women with different body types.

Bride's image: jewelry

Leave your favorite jewelry for prosaic everyday life. On her own wedding day, a lady is supposed to shine in real jewelry! “The bride’s jewelry should not be flashy, too large or bright,” says Anastasia Kaminskaya. “Also, don’t wear everything at once - this will make the look heavier, and our goal is to make it sophisticated, fresh and light. You can limit yourself, for example, to diamond studs and a small elegant bracelet. Instead of a massive necklace, wear a necklace made of thin threads or do without any neck jewelry at all, opting for beautiful earrings.” A great alternative to gold and precious stones is pearls.

Fabrics

Elegant and high-quality fabrics are an important condition for a beautiful dress, especially a wedding one. For the off-season and winter period, you can choose a spectacular style from dense textures that will be warm and perfectly highlight the female silhouette. Picturesque lace, flowing chiffon, shimmering silk and transparent organza will help fill such an important day with romance. Today, fashion has adapted so much to different age groups that it allows every woman to have a stunning look, regardless of age and body type. Lining fabrics that perfectly hold their shape and shapewear help make a woman's silhouette flawless.

Costume

A correctly chosen suit looks very impressive and festive. You can wear one of the following options to your wedding:

• a jacket suit with tapered or straight trousers (preferably with creases);
• the tuxedo;
• a skirt suit with a fitted jacket and a pencil skirt or a flared model;
• a suit of a jacket with culottes (the most informal option);
• a suit with trousers flared from the knee and a fitted jacket or jacket.

To prevent the set from looking too formal and office-like, it is important to choose the right color; the following would be good:

• black or white (especially for a tuxedo);
• all bright and pure colors;
• delicate light shades.

Choose strictly monochromatic suits with an emphasis on the waist and a minimalist cut. In such looks, color almost always comes to the fore. And you can add femininity by simply letting your hair down. Don't forget that the most festive color combination is the tandem of red and white. So if you wear a red suit with the simplest white top or blouse, the look will still look smart.

Accessories

Accessories are an important part of a bride's beautiful look. For women 40-50 years old you can choose:

• jewelry made of expensive metals and natural stones. To make the look gentle, it is better to choose no more than two additions to your outfit. If the dress is made of lace, you can do without this accessory;
• hats, small veil;
• handbags;
• small neat gloves;
• elegant shoes: stilettos or comfortable pairs with a small comfortable heel.

   Interesting ideas and a lot. It's always inspiring to at least take a closer look. After 40, I would give up white. The color decides, something pastel shades, under the eyes, hair and color type. Still, in the average case, there is already something to cover up and correct, somewhere the handles are sagging, sometimes, and the complexion is not the freshest. And when you get married, you want to shine, and without any compromises!
