1. Tall, Slender, Medium height and build

You're the lucky ones, any style goes for you. Just remember the rule of thumb a perfectly fitted suit.

Honestly, with your type of body, don't worry handsome!

2. Tall and Muscular

The answer is a shawl-collar tux, they are just right for you. Do remember to wear the jacket long enough. Relax your hand on the side and your jacket should end at your fingertips. Carefully choose your tie or collar choice or you'll look like you're being choked.

Tips: if you are on the heavier side, opt for a vest. The partition will make you look like prince charming.

3. Short, muscular and stocky side
Opt for single breasted cut and the button should be as low around the beld area to make you look leaner. Shoulder pads are no no. Again opt for vest over the traditional cummerbunds.

4. Short and thin
The perfect cut for you will be single breasted cut with single button placed low, of course a double breasted jacket will look good on you too. To appear broader, a peak lapel or notched is a good choice. Elegant,

minimalist vest or smaller bow ties are best for you.

Tips: Well just in case you cannot decide on your suit or not available, go for shawl collar. It’s classic and you wrong.

How to find the right wedding dress?

You’ve found the right guy. We’ll help you find the right gown!

Brides have the most fun, especially in Malaysia as we are not limited to just one style of wedding dress on our wedding day. Our cultures and religions allow us to wear as many dresses as our ceremony takes us, for instance, opting for a traditional dress for the ceremonial betrothal, a cocktail dress for rehearsals, a white satin princess-cut gown for our civil ceremony and an evening gown for the grand dinner.

While playing dress-up is a lot of fun, finding the right wedding dress can be mind-boggling and stressful. Here are some simple steps to follow when searching for your gown:

● Research international wedding magazines and online wedding sites.
● Be open and adventurous, try as many gowns as you can! On the rack, some wedding gowns
may seem unsuitable or not something you would wear, but it could look absolutely
gorgeous on you.
● if your budget allows it, go to a couturier for a gown especially designed and custom-
made to fit you.
● Know your options well : made-to-measure, buy off the rack, or rent?
● Keep in mind your wedding theme, venue and style.
● Check your timeline. Order your gown at least 6-8 months in advance (up to 12 months) and schedule a fitting two weeks to a month before your wedding.

A simple guide to choosing the right gown for the right body shape :

Tall and Thin
Make the most of your figure as you can go for any style you want! Go for soft, flowy materials, lots of detailing from the waitsline down, or with a satin sash tied elegantly around your waist to enhance your curves.

Slim and Petite
An A-line gown would be perfect for you. To look taller, opt for a higher waist cut or a V cut bodice to accentuate your waistline. Look captivating with an empire-cut gown complemented with flowy, chiffon materials from your bust line.

Full Figure
A V-cut neckline is most flattering. Go for detailing in the bust and neck line while keeping details and cut simple. Know your body and flaunt your best features while cleverly hiding others. A bodice will accentuate your waist and the straight cut hides the tummy. And instead of silky, shiny fabrics, choose soft, matte-coloured ones.

A tip: If you have purchased your wedding gowns some months before the wedding, store them elsewhere as staring at them continuously can make you far less excited.
