This Demetrios gown is frothy, fabulous, and full with tulle and cascading beading. The cascading embellishment is a slightly modern touch compared to the usual lace and filigree embroidery featured on the other gowns. The strapless bodice features a sweetheart neckline and detailed nipped waist.

This Vera Wang for David's Bridal gown has basque waist, which is very traditional and is a bit old fashioned. Kim Kardashian wore an identical version of this gown but although I have yet to see the basque waist really come back, modern versions like this although rare can be found. The bodice has lace applique and it is finished in a layered tulle full skirt.

A lovely gown from Martina Lianna with embellished dropped waist bodice and matching embellishment at hem. Its not as full as some ball gowns but is still fuller than an A-line. The shiny satin can seem a bit dated but is still a common traditional staple.

This Essence of Australia gown has a slim lace bodice with ribbon waist, with a bit of the lace creeping down into the skirt. The tulle skirt features pick-ups which are a good way to add volume without much more weight.

Hey I really like your dresses but I personally feel like there for woman who wear a size three. The dresses might not necessarily be for small and or smaller women but if you have smaller models wear theses dresses and there aren't any (not to offend anyone) bigger women in these beautiful dresses the I automatically think that the dresses are for women who wear size three.I mean can you blame me. On the bright side the dresses are so beautiful, well done.
