Comfortable wedding shoes and pantyhose are a
must on your wedding day after all you will be wearing them for many
hours.
These should also complement your dress. The pantyhose should also
provide a comfortable foundation with the cleanest looking lines
underneath a full ball gown skirt or a narrow clingy wedding gown.
White or ivory color pantyhose are symbolic of weddings, but you can
never go wrong with a nude color.
If your legs are impeccably groomed,
bare legs can be appropriate in extremely hot weather.
Try and avoid ribbon, lace or fancy trims on your pantyhose these can
cause your gown to look wrinkled or bubbly.
Keep in mind these tips when selecting your shoes:
- Keep the heel height in mind when choosing the dress.
- Buy your shoes after selecting the gown but before
the first fitting.
- Buy two pairs of shoes in case there is a dyeing
mishap or one of the heels break.
- Always, consider your comfort, especially in regard
to the toe shape and heel height.
- Be aware of what type of shoe is flattering to your
foot. For a size eight or larger, avoid a shoe which has an extended
toe. If you have a wide foot go for a gradual oval rather than a square
toe.
- A plain elegant shoe or sandal looks so much better
than one with a garish decoration.
- Check the quality of the shoe as white shoes reveal
their workmanship.
Your comfortable wedding shoes can be made from satin, silk crepe or
faille. If you have a less formal wedding they can be made from silk
shantung, linen, ultra thin suede or leather. White satin wedding shoes
are the best for dyeing.
