I was looking at an article on your website – when I came across another article about Plus Size wedding dresses.
We are a Bridal House called M Couture. We also noticed how not many shops cater for the plus size so we looked into it and studied matters of “shape and size” for about a year before we decided to open M Couture. We have been open a year and a half now – based in Cape Town and we are about to open in the Gauteng area.

There are a number of difficult things that we have discovered that really deserve consideration and its these things that are probably why catering for a fuller figure bride has to be a dedicated and focused business.

1 Plus size brides have been ignored for so long, that its good to take care of their confidence and feelings first
2 We cater for their “Shape and not their Size” and we work on balancing their shape and enhancing all the good bits, so body shape, shoes height, hairstyle, veil length and bouquet shape all need to be considered
3 Hiring for the plus size is not really an option as there are no “Standard sizes” in the plus size range – for example a curvy bride can be a size 16 on top and an 18 round the hips and there are numerous variations in shape. Its best that each gown is custom made to ernhance the shape of the bride
4….etc.etc

SO – having said all that – I just wanted to let you know that we are here to help as much as possible. We have had many happy tears and attended fantastic ceremonies of radiant full figure brides that can’t believe they suddenly have a waist and a shape and they feel more than beautiful than ever on such a special day..

Its a very happy business to be in and we are so looking forward to helping brides as much as we can.

Thanks for your website
Kind Regards
