Picking Jewellery To Match Your Wedding Dress
Sometimes your dream necklace and your dream wedding dress will unfortunately not make the perfect bridal outfit. The following is a list of popular wedding dress styles, with jewellery suggestions to match them.
Off-the-shoulder Dress
There is a lot of dolletage on show with this style of dress so you don really have much for your jewellery to compete with. You could therefore go for any style you wish. However, always bear in mind the level of detail on the dress. For a very simple dress with little or no embroidery, we would recommend a delicate necklace teamed with matching earrings to compliment the simplicity of the top of this dress.
Scoop neck Dress
A scoop-neck on a dress is another versatile choice when it comes to choosing your Bridal Jewellery, as all necklace shapes will compliment the neckline. Our favourites for a scoop-neck dress would be a dramatic pendant drop necklace teamed with a single-strand pearl bracelet, which will complete your wedding look perfectly and very elegantly.
Sweetheart Dress
With a sweetheart neckline, the neckline is almost an accessory in itself and flatters the bride's neck and shoulders beautifully all on its own. Therefore you need to be careful not to over-accessorise it with elaborate Bridal Jewellery, and instead complement the shape. A sweetheart bodice looks stunning with a pendant necklace and matching earrings, which mirror the shape of the neckline.
Open Backed Dress
A great way to show off a backless dress is with a Bridal Choker with a hanging emellishment on the back. Bridal chokers give you an edgier look while still embracing the classic, elegant look.
V Neck Dress
When a bride is wearing a v neck style wedding gown, Y-drop necklaces are a very nice touch for bridal necklace jewellry. The Y-drop necklace takes the same angles as the v neck wedding gown line. Bridal chokers are also a great selection for the bride that is wearing a v line dress. The choker gives clean lines and does not distract from the v neck style of dress. Regular simple and double strand necklaces also work very nicely for this style of wedding gown, as they provide a simple but elegant style that compliments the v neck.
Square Top Dress
For the brides that select a very traditional square top wedding gown, simple, single strand and double strand bridal jewelry necklaces are a great way to finish off the neckline. They bring contrast and attract the eye towards the cut of the dress. For a very clean lined look, bridal jewelry chokers are the most perfect style of bridal jewelry necklines for the square top dress. The bridal choker has become more and more popular as the years pass, now with so many options available; brides are finding it easier to select the perfect bridal jewelry choker that fits the style of their gowns.
Off The strapless chiffon dress Shoulder Dress
When wearing an off of the shoulder dress, any style of bridal jewellry necklace works. A regular single or double strand necklace can frame out your entire bridal look with simplicity. If you choose to wear a bridal jewellry choker, that brings the eyes up to the face with ease as it finished off your bridal look. Y-drops work great with the off the shoulder dress. You can't go wrong with what ever style of Bridal Jewellery you choose for this dress.
Asymmetric or One Shoulder Dress
With the asymmetric gown, it is best to choose a great bracelet and pair of earrings, as a necklace will look unbalanced and unnatural. The one shoulder dress is a bold move; match it with a bold Bridal Bracelet and glamorous Bridal Earrings.
Scoop Neck Gown
When wearing the scooped neck gown a simple one or multi-strand necklace is perfect. A necklace such as the simple one to five strand bridal necklaces will frame out the top of your wedding gown perfectly. A bridal jewellry choker is also a really nice selection for this style of dress. It is a simple and evenly tops off the scoop neckline.
