If you have a bigger bust or larger upper body there are a few different style gowns that are best for you. First, what not to wear. Avoid anything strapless. While a strapless gown can be very sexy it usually offers very little support in regards to holding up the top half of your gown. With a large bust, it is likely you will be uncomfortable in a gown with nothing holding it up and feel self-conscious that a little more than you would like is being exposed. Corset tops are usually the best way to go when choosing to wear a strapless dress and for the most part, sorry big-busted girls, but corsets are probably not right for you.

While it is important that your bust is lifted a corset top might create too much cleavage giving an unattractive appearance. The right things to look for in a gown are styles like an empire waist, A-line bottoms, rouching jersey gowns and any gown that includes knots, broaches or something that draws attention to the center of your body. An empire waist is the easiest and best style to flatter your body. With the waist seam right under your bust, all attention will be drawn there, which is the smallest part of your body. Complete with an A-line bottom that flows away from the body, your upper half will appear much smaller than your bottom half. A gown like this with straps, thick or thin, also offers enough support that you will be comfortable.

Dress up an empire waist gown by looking for a gown with a ribbon under the belt, lace overlay, or a different color on the bust and bottom of the gown. Contrasting colors are a fun way to differentiate your dress from others and are also flattering as it makes the eye see your gown in two pieces, top and bottom. Jersey gowns with rouching are another great style gown to look for. Jersey is super comfortable and elastic, which means it will stretch to fit different parts of your body and rouching helps to hide any unwanted rolls or lumps. Accentuating a rouched jersey gown with a large shiny broach in the middle of your upper body draws attention to the center of your body, which makes you appear slimmer. Small style hints like this to look for in gowns will be just what you need to find a gown that fits you perfectly!

For those of you with larger bottom halves of your body, bottoms and thighs, have no fear. Feature like this that you may be self-conscious of are easy to hide in the right gown. First and foremost look for gowns with a fitted upper half. If you are worried about showing off your bottom half then embrace your top and show some skin! Corset tops are a great way to show off your upper body in a sexy way or try a gown with one-strap or halter. To make sure your bottom half is concealed look for gowns where the bottoms flare away from the body. Choosing a gown with a corset top and large bottom with tulle underlay is the best way to conceal anything you don't want showing from your waist down. The tulle underlay creates a beautiful dramatic effect of making the bottom flare out away form your body. In a floor length gown, no one will be able to see anything when it comes to your bottom.

If you like your silhouette just don't want anything too revealing try a floor length silk gown with spaghetti straps and perhaps an exposed back or draped neckline. A floor length silk gown is a beautiful way to show off your silhouette without revealing every curve to your bottom half. Silk can be clingy though, so if you are very positive about completely covering up your bottom and legs, then skip the silk. Taffeta and chiffon are both great fabrics to turn to for a fitted gown. Avoid any slits or A-symmetrical bottoms because that just exposes and draws attention to your bottom.
