YOUR BEST LOOKING Local experts share beauty and fashion tips and tricks HEADS UP What advice can you share with me when it comes to finding the perfect headpiece for my wedding day? Choosing the right headpiece to complement a wedding gown can be daunting; you’ll want to stand out while finding a piece that reflects your personality, matches your dress and fits in with your wedding theme – there’s a lot to think about. My advice is to stop overthinking and trust the experts. Couture milliners like myself have years of experience, and we can guide you through the multiple options available while suggesting the suitable shapes and sizes to frame your head perfectly. We can also help you find the correct shades to complement your dress, hair colour, eye colour, and skin tone. There will always be the perfect headpiece for you; just remember to ask the right person to make it for you. Giulia Mio | Giulia Mio Millinery | www.giuliamiomillinery.com www.isoelegant.co.uk SUPPORT ACT I have a very full bust. What styles will suit me and how can I get the right support? For brides with a fuller bust, I recommend an A-line gown with a well constructed bodice and a fastening at the middle point of your back rather than a low open back design – such as the gown seen here (image 1 and 2). The gown has an incredible bodice that gives full support, with boning and a higher cup shape compared to most other gowns. As most brides express, they don’t want the over spill. This dress has a little deep plunge to keep on trend, but it’s well supported with the zip fastening at the back. Gowns with low open backs will provide no support for the front, so it’s key to aviod these styles if you have a fuller bust. If you do want the open back however, pick a gown with thick supportive straps such as our Allure Bridals gown (image 3), which has a beautiful bow detail at the back. The thick Mikado satin straps provide the support, allowing you to feel comfortable.
