The options can be overwhelming, but we’re here to help. Take a look at our fit guide below to help you find the best dress for your body.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PEAR SHAPED<\/strong><br \/>\nFor brides with wider hips, look for a full skirt to balance your frame. Try an A-line gown that gradually flares from the natural waist to the floor, floating from the thigh, which will highlight a narrow waist. Looking to highlight a slender upper body? Try a gown with a V-neckline and thin shoulder straps.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11193\" src=\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/Pear-Shaped_Charlene_Gabor.jpg\" alt=\"Wedding dresses for pear shaped brides - Maggie Sottero\" width=\"888\" height=\"704\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maggiesottero.com\/maggie-sottero\/charlene-lynette\/11463\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Charlene Lynette<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maggiesottero.com\/maggie-sottero\/gabor\/11788\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gabor<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>HOURGLASS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Show off your curves with a mermaid gown that hugs the waist and hips and flares from the knees.
