Bridal guide: How to choose a flattering headpiece



Headpieces are important accessories for brides. The right headpiece will reflect your personality and finish the vision you create perfectly. Wish to look the best on your big. Here are some ideas on how to find suitable bridal headpieces and latest bridal headpiece trend.

How to choose bridal headpiece?
Buy your headpiece after you decide your dress silhouette. When the bride has made a decision on the silhouette, although she may not have picked her dress yet, then she can concentrate on picking out a headpiece.
Choose a right size for your headpiece. Brides sometimes forget that they are, perhaps for the first time ever, donning a formal gown, which can swallow them up if their bridal ensemble is not proportionate. A full on gown with a little headpiece on the head doesn’t work because the bride looks bottom heavy and not balanced.
Find the right hue. The hue of the headpiece should complement the color of your gown. For example, if your dress has bead work that is off-white or silver, a stark white headband may appear too bright next to it. If your style is vintage-inspired, consider a hair clip or headband that has exposed metal

What are trending now about bridal headpieces?
Floral Headpiece
Whether they are real or made of fabric, flowers add dimension and softness to a bridal look. Dramatic brides might consider a floral crown, while the understated bride might prefer a more subtle look like that of the Marchesa model above. A new trend is to pair fabric flowers of different textures and sizes together to create a more dimensional look.
Crystal Embellished Headpiece
Crystal embellished headpiece can add a touch of glam to your look with a crown or halo, which are a modern twist to the tiara. Consider complementing the embroidery and details on your wedding dress. In case it is decorated with pearls, avoid going for the headpiece with crystals.


Tips on choosing bridal headpieces
1.       A more detailed, ornate and embellished wedding dress would work really well with a simple or delicate bridal headpiece and ensure your wedding hair accessory complements rather than overshadows your dress.
2.       Your own personal style should play a part in what you choose to wear. If you have a big personality and tend to wear statement accessories in your day-to-day life you might want to reflect that on your wedding day with something that will really wow your groom and your guests. If you usually prefer simple accessories – or no accessories at all – you might want to go for something simple or delicate.
3.       Just like your dress, the perfect headpiece might not be as you first imagined. Try lots of different styles and types until you find “the one”. Bridal shops can only show you a small selection of the huge and varied headpiece designs on offer, so shop around once you’ve chosen your dress.
