Sexy Beach Wedding Dress
A sexy beach wedding dress is a natural choice for a seaside wedding. Don’t waste all that sun, sand and sea and come to your beach wedding all covered up. That just doesn’t make sense. A beach wedding dress has to be sexy. Let’s face it – this is an age when a bride can wear virtually anything she likes so why not play up your sexy side with your beach wedding dress? Don’t be afraid to show a little skin and sweep everyone off their feet.
Key body areas to expose
Sexy walks a fine line between being genuinely attractive and being just plain cheap. Even slits have a limit when it comes to good taste. Remember Elizabeth Hurley’s crotch-revealing gown when she went to a wedding? And she wasn’t even the bride! She got away with it but, as beautiful as Ms. Hurley is, the antic left many of the guests with a bad memory of the affair.
Sexy is about showing your curves, all your good parts and still keeping enough from plain view to keep everyone guessing. And that is something you can do with your beach wedding dress. So which areas of the body should you expose and better yet, how much?
One thing to remember when picking your sexy beach wedding dress is to consider which parts of your body you are most proud of. If you have curves like a guitar, a fitting bodice can show them off nicely. If your legs are to-die for, a short dress or a slit that goes halfway up your thighs is a great way to wear a sexy beach wedding dress. The trick is finding one or two areas you can emphasize and allowing the rest of your body to play up your best asset.
Beach wedding dresses also require your arms to go uncovered. That enough is already sexy. If you’re wearing a long beach wedding dress, show off your neck and shoulders by tying back your hair in an upswept hairdo and wearing a strapless or off-the-shoulder gown. Or go for minimal yet sexy skin exposure with a halter neck. A halter neck will show off toned shoulders and some skin on the front torso and upper back.
A sexy beach wedding dress can also work well with a low-cut back. If your back looks as sexy as Hilary Swank’s or Nicole Kidman’s, wear a sleeveless, scoop neck and a plunging back. Any style will do – the wide V-cut to reveal nice shoulder blades and just skim your lower back or a shy slit that can run straight from the nape of your neck to the small of your back, revealing your skin only when a breeze blows it slightly open.
And what’s a sexy beach wedding dress without the cleavage? Maximize your curves with a midriff-skimming bustier or if you’re a little shy, wear a demure beach wedding dress with a little peep hole in front.
Sheer is sexy
If your gown is made with sheer material, you can automatically turn it into a sexy beach wedding dress. The appeal is that you’re seen without actually being seen and you can wear some of the most provocative styles underneath and still keep yourself covered at the same time. If you’re more adventurous and daring and your beach wedding is an informal affair, nothing beats the sexiness of a bikini worn under sheer fabric like chiffon and georgette.
No trains
If your fantasy wedding dress is the one which looks like Princess Diana’s gown, don’t hope to achieve a sexy beach wedding look. Sure, you could be a vision in soft white but the bulk of the fabric and the long train will ruin the sexy look for you. Not only should you expect your beach wedding gown to blow all around you when a sea breeze picks it up, expect to clean up the sand behind you, thanks to your heavy train.
