Alfred Angelo gowns never fail to impress me

by Stacy Kravitz

One of my favorite wedding gown designers is Alfred Angelo. They are REAL dresses that fit REAL bodies. They fit over normal sized hips and contain normal sized breasts. And they still look absolutely awesome and gorgeous. And they are affordable! A word of caution: the fabrics don’t feel like a Vera Wang, but these gowns don’t cost even a fraction of a Vera Wang gown.

I know there are some very in styles right now but I am personally a classic-girl through and through. I think the classic styles are CLASSIC because they fit a lot of people, in a flattering way and they never really go out of style.

I really like this gown on a medium-build body. The cinched fabric across the midsection will give anyone the appearance of an even slimmer waist line. The top is very secure and therefore well suited for a larger bust. The shoulder-cap sleeves are also quite sturdy. You don\'t get the idea that they are going to break like a spaghetti strap and they will make a more conservative dresser feel confident in this sexy but formal and classic gown.

This is style #1148.


This gown has a very nice structure to it. I like the square neckline which is well suited for a more delicate and slimmer upper body. It really allows a good set of arms to stand. The spaghetti straps are not what I would recommend for a larger bust but I said before, I like this dress on a slimmer and taller figure. The beading down the front elongates the dress and slims the figure. This is style #1611.


I love this plunging neckline. It is sexy and classic. Perfect for a night wedding or the bride who wants a sexy edge to her wedding. The a-line of the skirt is very elongating and slimming, making this a great gown for a bottom heavy figure. This dress is style #1870.
