Elegance, sophistication and femininity are some of the main features of the bride’s image. Such qualities are best emphasized by a stylish outfit that fits your figure. And today, wedding dresses with a corset have become the current solution. A thick yoke can carefully adjust the waist, emphasizing advantages and hiding flaws.
Atlas is a material of high quality origin
For many decades, satin has been used to sew dresses for special occasions. And this is no coincidence. After all, satin is durable, drapes amazingly and has a beautiful smooth surface.
Translated from Arabic, “atlas” means “smooth, shiny.”
Previously, satin was made only from silk threads. Nowadays, the use of mixed fibers, such as cotton and viscose, is allowed.
But silk satin is unsurpassed perfection. The peculiarity of this fabric is that the weft threads are not visible on the front side, only the warps. That's why the sides are so different: one is glossy, the other is matte.
In expensive satin fabrics, both sides are glossy, thanks to double-sided weaving, only the warp threads are visible, while the weft is hidden from the inside.
Accessories
No bride can do without wedding accessories. But it is important to choose them so that the integrity of the image is not compromised.
A frequently used but not required wedding accessory is the veil. If the bride does not want to deviate from traditions, then the veil for the satin dress is selected depending on the style of the outfit. A single-layer veil, the edges of which are trimmed with a satin ribbon, looks harmonious. You can use a veil decorated with silk embroidery.
If the wedding is scheduled for winter, then a fur cape will be an excellent addition to a satin dress. In spring and autumn, you can cover your shoulders with a stole made of airy fabric.
You need to choose jewelry for a satin dress without howling about the principle of moderation. Since the material itself has a shine, it is better to prefer matte jewelry. The best option would be pearls.
Stylists recommend choosing shoes based on contrasting textures. Models made of suede or matte leather are ideal for a satin dress.
The bride's wedding hairstyle should match the style of the dress. So, for models in the Greek style, hairstyles with curls and ribbons are ideal. High updos go well with princess-cut outfits; a simple, sleek bun goes well with a formal sheath dress.
Satin is an excellent material for sewing a wedding dress. Dresses made from this fabric can look different, so each bride will be able to choose the most suitable option.
A little history
Even in ancient China, they were engaged in raising silkworms and producing silk. The weaving method used in the production of satin is a little over two thousand years old. For many centuries, the method of producing atlas was kept in the strictest secrecy, but gradually the South Asian countries mastered the secret technologies.
The atlas appeared on European territory in the Middle Ages. However, the cost of the fabric was not really high and was available only to the rich classes. For example, in England there was a law stating that only people of royal blood were worthy of wearing satin clothes.
In the 20th century, satin became widely available as a result of the invention of new technologies and mixed fibers. Nowadays, this noble material is used both in everyday clothing and on special occasions.

Pros and cons of the atlas
Each material has its pros and cons, i.e. advantages and disadvantages. Let's start with the pleasant things.
The advantages of the atlas are:
- his ability to frame the curves of a figure with soft coattails, focusing attention on the charms and hiding flaws;
- it is pleasant to the touch;
- affordable; looks great externally.
There are very few disadvantages:
- satin visually increases volume, but this can be used in the right direction if applied in the décolleté area.
- If you have a full figure, you shouldn’t put satin on your hips and small tummy;
- but what is especially important is its ability to wrinkle easily, so you should be very careful.
Features of corset wedding dresses
The history of the corset goes back many centuries: it was widespread in antiquity among Greek women, it was worn by almost all European women in the Middle Ages - it was with the help of this element of clothing that they achieved a thin “aspen” waist and a perfectly even posture. The peak of popularity of the slimming corset occurred in the 18th - 19th centuries, but already in the 20th century it practically went out of use.
Although women have stopped using corset dresses for everyday wear, they still remain quite popular in wedding fashion. Wedding dresses with a corset and a full skirt have already become classics; they are amazingly beautiful, graceful and elegant, and in addition, they model the figure, visually making it more feminine and slender, hide problem areas and emphasize the advantages.
Modern corsets are safe for health, quite comfortable to wear, do not restrict movement or make breathing difficult, especially if the corset is not tied too tightly on the wedding dress.
The advantages of corset models are as follows:
- they tighten the protruding belly, hide figure flaws, and give the silhouette a more feminine outline;
- the waist becomes more pronounced and thinner, and the bust, on the contrary, visually looks larger;
- a full skirt of a wedding dress allows you to disguise overly wide hips or full legs;
- the back becomes straight and the posture becomes impeccable; It not only looks beautiful and elegant, but is also extremely healthy.
Of course, if you wear a corset dress for a long time, you may feel some discomfort by the end of the day. Wedding dresses without a corset are, of course, much more comfortable, but they are not able to give the image as much femininity and grace as a corset model.

Today, corset dresses come in a variety of models. They can be long or short, fluffy, tight-fitting or loose, with a simple straight or original asymmetrical cut. The decor, color palette of the outfit, and, of course, the corset itself, which can be located on the front, back or sides of the wedding dress, differ.
Fluffy wedding dresses with corsets
A long dress with a full skirt is a classic model chosen by many brides. Special petticoats, usually made of tulle and equipped with rings, add pomp and volume.
