Simple, sleek and elegant! The Sheath/Column wedding gown can fall nearly straight down from the neckline to the hem, or it can hug your curves, accentuating your torso, waist and hips. Although flattering for several body types, the Sheath/Column wedding dress may not allow much room for hiding certain problem areas, like a larger lower body. Sheath/Column style wedding gown is the most popular bridal style for beach weddings, as well as other destination weddings.
