Exciting Dress Fitting ♡
Among the preparations for the wedding, many brides look forward to the dress fitting the most *
During one visit, you try on about 3 to 5 dresses that catch your interest, and you repeat this several times until you decide on "the one" ♩
However, when it comes time to make the final decision on the dress,
"What kind of design was the very first dress I tried on?"
"I forgot the back style of that dress!"
It seems like these kinds of situations can be quite common…
So, let's capture it in photos *
Therefore, when you get home and want to receive opinions from your partner or mother or compare them carefully by yourself,
it's essential to take photos of yourself in each dress you try on to preserve your bridal look *
Even if it feels a bit embarrassing at the moment,
make sure to ask those around you to "Please take lots of pictures!" so you won’t regret it later on ♡
The first photo you should take during the dress fitting: Frontal View
The first photo you should take is from the front. This angle will give you the best understanding of the dress’s silhouette and overall vibe, so make sure to capture your full body from top to bottom *
It’s best to lightly place your hands on the part where the skirt switches ♡
Additionally, it's also recommended to take a photo holding a bouquet from the front ♡
Holding flowers will clarify the image of how you'll look on the day itself *
The second photo you should take during the dress fitting: Side View
Next, let’s rotate 90° and take a picture from the side ♩
The points to observe here are the skirt's fullness and the differences in lengths from front to back *
Since guests will often see you from the side, it’s good to keep an eye on your posture in advance as well ◎
The third photo you should take during the dress fitting: Back View
Next, we’ll introduce the back view photo. This angle is also commonly seen by guests, so be sure to check the back ribbon and how the train flows ♡
It might also be a good idea to have a rough idea of what hairstyle you would want ♩
The fourth photo you should take during the dress fitting: Turned Back
You’ll want to capture a photo turning your body back while only your face is directed towards the camera *
If you turn your head back slightly while lowering your gaze a bit, it’ll come out beautifully ♩
The fifth photo you should take during the dress fitting: Close-Up of the Neckline
It's important to take a close-up photo of the neckline design of the dress *
Especially since during the ceremony, usually only the upper body will be visible, brides often choose dresses with heart-cut necklines or dazzling embellishments and flowers ♡
The sixth photo you should take during the dress fitting: Sitting Down
A photo of yourself sitting on a chair or the floor is also a must, as it showcases the dress's fluffiness ♩
Taking a self-portrait like this, reflected in a mirror, is also recommended ♡
Such sitting shots are also a popular pose for pre-wedding photos ♡
Even though you’re at the fitting stage, posing cutely like this can yield wonderful pictures ♩
Getting Excited for the Dress Fitting ♡
The thrill of wearing the dress and a bit of anxiety about whether you’ll find the one is all part of the fitting experience *
To aid in careful comparison later, it's highly recommended to take various types of photos, not just front and back views, ♡
