Neck Line:
​One of the next steps in choosing the perfect gown is deciding what type of neck line you will have. These are the five basic necklines; you can have variations on these styles but these are the fundamentals. Refer back to the post on Body Shape for help on choosing sleeves that will most flatter your body.


Sweetheart:
  • great for triangle or hourglass body types
  • tends to be universally flattering
  • naturally enhances curves for medium to large busts

Halter:
  • great for inverted triangle or athletic body types
  • makes the shoulders appear more narrow
  • adds a sense of drama

V-Neck:
  • great for triangle or hourglass body types
  • can make a smaller bust seem smaller
  • can make a petite frame seem taller

High Neck:
  • great for inverted triangle, round, or rectangle body types
  • adds a sense of sophistication and elegance

​Scoop or Round:
  • great for triangle or hourglass body types
  • emphasizes collar bone
  • good for medium to smaller busts

Growing baby bellies typically change the normal body type to more of a round or triangle shape. You may still maintain part of your original body shape depending on how you carry your baby but in general the baby bump will draw the eye to the center of your body. These styles are typically more popular with maternity gown's:
  • Sweetheart
  • V-neck
  • Scoop or round
