Trumpet Wedding Dresses: Styling Tips & Suggested Fits

The Trumpet silhouette is named after the musical instrument because the style of the dress’s flare resembles the shape of a trumpet. As a member of the fit and flare family of silhouettes, brides often confuse the trumpet with a mermaid or traditional fit & flare dress.

An easy way to tell the difference between the three silhouettes is to compare where on the hip the flare begins. A traditional fit and flare dress will begin to flare at the top of the hip, while a mermaid dress begins to jet out at the bride’s knees. However for a trumpet dress, the flare starts right around the middle of thigh.

Who should wear it?

Like the other flare silhouettes, the trumpet dress is great for shorter brides who want to add height to their appearance. Also, since the trumpet hugs the body from the bodice to mid-hip, it really helps accentuate a bride’s beautiful curves.
