The main principle of choosing jewelry for a wedding dress

The right choice of jew­el­ry has a great impact on the image, appear­ance and emo­tion­al state of a woman. They are able to enliv­en and refresh cloth­ing, give it a solemn, fes­tive or offi­cial char­ac­ter.

Thanks to well-cho­sen acces­sories, you can elim­i­nate any flaws of the fig­ure, empha­size the advan­tages of the fig­ure and cre­ate your own indi­vid­ual char­ac­ter. Many orna­ments act as a tal­is­man — they give women self-con­fi­dence.

Jew­el­ry, pro­vid­ed the right choice in terms of mate­r­i­al, col­or and type, plays the role of a frame for the com­po­si­tion planned for the wed­ding day. They enno­ble and give shine to the image, regard­less of whether they are acces­sories from the newest jew­el­ry col­lec­tion, rel­e­vant this sea­son, or belong to clas­sic harem mod­els.

The secret of a suc­cess­ful choice cos­tume jew­el­ry - ear­rings, bracelets or neck­laces - to the wed­ding dress is to match them with oth­er ele­ments of the out­fit.

They must be made in the same style and from the same type of mate­r­i­al. All these ele­ments must inter­act and com­ple­ment each oth­er. You should buy them imme­di­ate­ly after try­ing on the dress to check which prod­ucts will go well with all the ele­ments of the wed­ding out­fit, and which ones will not.

A win-win option is the pur­chase of a wed­ding set (head­set).

every­day dec­o­ra­tions suit­able for the whole con­cept of the image of the bride, if they har­mo­nize with wed­ding dress so as to empha­size the impor­tance of this event. They should not be ran­dom, so you should not post­pone their selec­tion until the very last moment, because the image of the bride may turn out to be a lit­tle chaot­ic. In no case should you com­bine pearl ear­rings, a gold bracelet or a neck­lace with crys­tals!

How to choose jewelry for a wedding dress

The first impor­tant rule con­cerns the num­ber of acces­sories. Do not over­do it with small things, unless you want to look like a Christ­mas tree! There­fore, when choos­ing jew­el­ry for a wed­ding dress, the prin­ci­ple “less is bet­ter” is of par­tic­u­lar impor­tance. Acces­sories can­not over­shad­ow the beau­ty of the bride, but only reveal her nat­ur­al charm and mag­nif­i­cence.

Find a bal­ance between the orna­ment on the dress and the jew­el­ry — this is the basis for main­tain­ing the con­sis­ten­cy and har­mo­ny of the wed­ding image.

If the dress has a mod­ern cut, you can afford jew­el­ry of an unusu­al shape. In the case of clas­sic out­fits, it is bet­ter to choose clas­sic jew­el­ry: pearls, sil­ver or gold with­out any inserts made of stones and oth­er acces­sories.

If the wed­ding dress is very chic and rich­ly dec­o­rat­ed, the dec­o­ra­tion can­not be very mod­est, because then it will be over­shad­owed by the fan­cy style of the dress. At the same time, the acces­sories can­not be too lav­ish, because then the bride’s out­fit will look taste­less.

If the neck­line is rich­ly dec­o­rat­ed, it is bet­ter to com­plete­ly aban­don the neck­lace and buy small ear­rings and a bracelet.

If you bet on an out­fit, the corset of which is stud­ded with Swarovs­ki stones, you should not com­ple­ment it with a spec­tac­u­lar neck­lace.

If you have a sim­pler dress and a strik­ing chunky neck­lace, opt for small­er ear­rings, as the stars did at the last Oscars.

Choosing jewelry of a certain style for a wedding dress

When start­ing the search for wed­ding jew­el­ry, you need to con­sid­er the style of your out­fit. If the wed­ding cer­e­mo­ny and dress are in boho style, and instead of a mod­el of feath­er ear­rings and a bracelet with a plant orna­ment, you buy dan­gling ear­rings stud­ded with shiny crys­tals, you will def­i­nite­ly not get the effect of a well-thought-out whole.

The com­bi­na­tion of a wed­ding dress in a vin­tage style with inno­v­a­tive dec­o­ra­tive ele­ments and lux­u­ri­ous rose gold will be a bright styl­is­tic fail­ure.

It is impor­tant that the dec­o­ra­tion com­ple­ments the dress, and not the oth­er way around. It should be select­ed so that it har­mo­nizes with the fin­ish on the fab­ric. If the dress is embroi­dered with rhine­stones, it is worth includ­ing sim­i­lar ele­ments in the image that will make it com­plete.

Prod­ucts in the form of a rose are suit­able for a dress in the Span­ish style — both pins, hoops and wreaths for hair, and a neck­lace with a pen­dant in the form of this flower for the neck­line.

A lux­u­ri­ous lush dress will be com­bined with clas­sic jew­el­ry, and a mod­est one — with thin and del­i­cate ones.

Pearls are an ele­gant and clas­sic dec­o­ra­tion, regard­less of the style, cut and shade of the dress. A string of pearls per­fect­ly absorbs and reflects light.

Choosing the color of jewelry and beautiful jewelry for a wedding

If you have prob­lems decid­ing whether to choose sil­ver or gold, con­sid­er your col­or type (face, eye, hair col­or) and tem­pera­ment.

Gold will look beau­ti­ful with dark skin and dark hair.

A lot depends on the shade of gold.

Yel­low gold goes well with a dark ecru dress. But if you want a more vin­tage effect, you can choose sil­ver, espe­cial­ly antique or oxi­dized.

Fair-skinned plat­inum blondes in a white dress and sil­ver jew­el­ry will look like snow queens.

if on wed­ding dress there are dec­o­ra­tive ele­ments, the eas­i­est dec­o­ra­tions match them by col­or.

How­ev­er, be care­ful with the col­ors of the stones: if you decide to add bright and col­or­ful accents, stick to them con­sis­tent­ly.

If you decid­ed on a snow-white dress, then the best deci­sion would be to choose beau­ti­ful sil­ver jew­el­ry for the bridewhich will fur­ther enhance the effect of pure white col­or.

An unsuc­cess­ful option will be a com­bi­na­tion of sil­ver jew­el­ry and jew­el­ry with a wed­ding dress shades of beige, pink, creamy white, ivory col­or. The same applies to the rec­om­men­da­tion regard­ing which should be suit­able bijouterie for a cham­pagne-col­ored wed­ding dress.

The flash of mas­sive ear­rings or a crys­tal neck­lace can cause incor­rect visu­al per­cep­tion. Against their back­ground, the out­fit will look old or yel­lowed, espe­cial­ly in the pho­to. In this case, gold prod­ucts with stones of warm shades are bet­ter suit­ed.

For an ecru-col­ored dress, you should choose jew­el­ry of gold col­or or with an insert of a stone of a warm shade. It is best to choose jew­el­ry of the same col­or for a col­ored or white dress with trans­par­ent inserts.

If you are a bright, ener­getic and self-con­fi­dent woman, a very suc­cess­ful dec­o­ra­tion will be expres­sive, with a touch of extrav­a­gance or a bright col­or. If you are mod­est and have a calm char­ac­ter, choose del­i­cate and small prod­ucts.

How to choose jewelry for a wedding dress with different types of neckline

Neck­laces and ear­rings should be select­ed tak­ing into account the shape of the neck­line. If the dress has an open top (clas­sic straight corset), you have com­plete free­dom of action. You can wear a set of prod­ucts of any shape, but not quite minia­ture.

Any dec­o­ra­tions are suit­able for straight clas­sic, square and shut­tle­cock neck­lines. A neck­lace, a chain with a pen­dant, a mas­sive neck­lace or shoul­der-length ear­rings will look great. If you opt for large ear­rings, the neck­lace should be thin­ner. Com­bine a mas­sive neck­lace with del­i­cate mod­els of ear­rings.

As jew­el­ry for a wed­ding dress with open shoul­ders you can afford to wear any type of neck­lace or neck­lace.

If you don’t plan any jew­el­ry on the neck, then the best solu­tion is under wed­ding dress with open shoul­ders there will be long dec­o­ra­tive ear­rings.

For a V‑shaped neck­line, a neck­lace that fol­lows the line of the neck­line, which forms the let­ter V or Y, is suit­able. If the dress is dec­o­rat­ed with straps, then you can aban­don the neck­lace and wear a bracelet or ear­rings.

When wear­ing an out­fit with a small round neck­line on the neck, it is bet­ter to aban­don mas­sive neck­laces and neck­laces in favor of larg­er hang­ing and volu­mi­nous ear­rings.

If the dress is in the Greek or Roman style with an asym­met­ric neck­line on one shoul­der, then all types of neck­laces and neck­laces are def­i­nite­ly out of the ques­tion. As for ear­rings, give pref­er­ence to studs and studs with­out dan­gling ele­ments.

Basic jew­el­ry acces­sories for a short wed­ding dress. Sil­ver and plat­inum, as well as dia­monds, crys­tals and rhine­stones are suit­able for a white dress. Pearls and light gold will suit a short shade of ivory. With such a neck­lace, ear­rings and a bracelet will look beau­ti­ful, which will fur­ther empha­size the beau­ty of the bride and empha­size the unique­ness of her image.

A high neck­line is a self-suf­fi­cient dec­o­ra­tion, so you will have to aban­don neck jew­el­ry in favor of spec­tac­u­lar ear­rings with a del­i­cate iri­des­cent bracelet, if the dress does not have long sleeves.

For a heart-shaped neck­line, choose round and Y‑shaped neck­laces, as well as a del­i­cate chain.

How to choose earrings for a wedding dress

If you chose a lace out­fit, feel free to pre­fer open­work ear­rings with leaves or flo­ral motifs. To such wed­ding dress it is pos­si­ble pick up and smooth dec­o­ra­tions in a clas­sic style.

If you have a round face and not very expres­sive cheek­bones, you should not buy ear­rings with round or round ele­ments. Dan­gling ear­rings are suit­able, they opti­cal­ly length­en the face. In the case of an oblong or oval face, it is bet­ter to aban­don long pen­dants and choose short, but more dec­o­ra­tive ones.

If you have a square face, you can choose ear­rings in the shape of a cir­cle or with round ele­ments to soft­en sharp fea­tures. If you have a tri­an­gu­lar, down­ward-point­ing chin, avoid ear­rings that taper down­wards, as they empha­size it. A good solu­tion is ear­rings nar­rowed at the top (near the ear) and wider at the bot­tom.

When choos­ing ear­rings made of any met­al, try them on if pos­si­ble. Pay atten­tion to how com­fort­able you are in them. Some prod­ucts may cling to the fab­ric.

If you have cho­sen big ear­rings that you don’t wear every day, you will have to get used to them — wear them for a few days before the wed­ding cer­e­mo­ny, as well as high-heeled shoes.

Just in case, you can buy and take a sec­ond pair of small­er ear­rings with you to change them in case of over­work.

How to choose jewelry for a wedding dress if you are allergic to many jewelry alloys

Aller­gy to wed­ding ear­rings, neck­lace or bracelet sounds like a bad joke, but in prac­tice it is not fun­ny. A slight rash on the neck­line is pos­si­ble when wear­ing a neck­lace made of sil­ver or gold with an admix­ture of nick­el. The same applies to red­ness and sup­pu­ra­tion of the ears caused by nick­el ear­rings.

Then you need to choose jew­el­ry for the wed­ding very care­ful­ly. It is impor­tant that they do not con­tain nick­el. Due to its low cost, it is often used to make inex­pen­sive jew­el­ry.

Oth­er impu­ri­ties can also cause irri­ta­tion. When buy­ing prod­ucts, pay atten­tion to the com­po­si­tion and mate­r­i­al and its coat­ing. The terms “gal­va­niz­ing” and “pati­na­tion” (arti­fi­cial aging to give prod­ucts a car­go appear­ance) should be on the alert. This may mean that chem­i­cals that can cause aller­gic reac­tions were used dur­ing pro­duc­tion. In this case, give pref­er­ence to prod­ucts made of nat­ur­al or med­ical gold and sil­ver. The more organ­ic met­al in the alloy, the bet­ter.

How to choose jewelry for a wedding dress for hair

It is worth tak­ing into account the planned hair­style and the oval of the face. A round face will be slen­der with long dan­gling ear­rings, which should be avoid­ed by women with long and point­ed fea­tures.

A crown, tiara or tiara with a comb look beau­ti­ful on loose long hair, dec­o­ra­tive hair­pins on high hair­styles.

If you decide to wear a wed­ding head­dress, choose among the options of prod­ucts with crys­tals, feath­ers and fresh flow­ers. They match your hair col­or, hair­style, dress style and face shape.

Large, expres­sive orna­ments are suit­able for wide dress­es, and more del­i­cate for mod­est ones.

An ele­gant­ly dec­o­rat­ed hat is per­fect­ly com­bined with a nar­row sheath dress.

If you are tall, choose com­po­si­tions with small and del­i­cate orna­ments.
