Panniers generally have less volume without wires, and the more wires there are, the more volume they have.

There are various types of panniers, but since compatibility with the dress is also important, let's consult with a stylist to choose the right one♩
The Difference with or Without a Pannier!
So, how much does the silhouette differ with or without a pannier?
This is a bride wearing the popular Vera Wang ballerina dress.
For the ceremony, she wore a voluminous princess-line pannier, and for the after-party, she wore the dress without a pannier*

It's surprising how much the silhouette differs with the same dress just by adding or removing a pannier…!
It might be a good idea to change whether to wear a pannier depending on the scene in which you wear the wedding dress◎

What Happens If You Reduce the Volume of a Pannier?
So, what happens if you reduce the volume of a pannier compared to a normal one?
