Brides with slender legs are very lovely and admirable ♡

However, many brides-to-be may struggle with being petite or have concerns about short legs… Many of them would love to find a way to appear more slender!＊

Recommended for petite brides who want to appear longer: "High-Low Dress" ♡

What I recommend for brides-to-be who want to look more slender is a “high-low dress,” which helps to elongate the legs and covers being petite ♡

If you're struggling with being short or want to make your legs look longer, this is a must-see! Today, I will introduce the high-low dress ♡

What is a high-low dress?

A high-low dress is characterized by having a shorter front skirt and a longer back skirt ♡

It is also known as a "fish-tail dress" ♡ The fish tail cut became a fashion trend about three years ago, so many of you might have heard about it＊

The front is shorter like a mini dress, making it a unique style with differing lengths between the front and back ♡

Effects of the high-low dress ♡

Let's introduce the effects of the high-low dress ♡ First, since the front skirt is shorter, it highlights the wedding shoes! ♡
