Sunday Best: Alyce Designs 312 Bridesmaids
Personal favorites maids gowns from Alyce Designs 312 Bridesmaids...
I really like this line not only because there is a style for every taste and body type but because they seem to have reinterpreted famous red carpet designs into something approachable and no doubt much more affordable.

Inspiration: Mariska Hargitay
In 2004 Mariska Hargitay married Peter Hermann in a Carolina Herrera gown.
Even though Mariska's body type is strong, curvy and volupt, she has great bone structure to carry off a strapless gown. She is a perfect aspiration for fit and athletic yet womanly, "non skinny" body types.
The blush colored ball gown was the perfect choice for a more "mature" first time bride to indulge her whimsy in a sophisticated way.
Her gown features a "duo waist" to fit her long waist perfectly: an empire rouched detail with a bodice that drops a bit below the natural waist, which incorporates the best of both waistlines.
A sweetheart neckline was a smart choice to harness Miss Hargitay's ample bosom. Although perhaps too risque for some, it was no doubt custom altered to perfectly fit her form without fear of any "mishaps". Remember, rather than being a splurge, alterations are actually an investment. So if you want to look as good as Mariska does in her gown, invest in that custom tailoring!
Another interesting detail: a pleated train, which can unfold gracefully yet be folded back in tucked up into a bustle for dancing.
