Hip swag, meet the internet. Internet meet hip swag. I got the chance to try on this beautiful gown by Sarah Seven, at the Lovely Bridal shop, where I was introduced to the hip swag. Do you see that bit of fabric that is draped over her hips on either side? That, my dear friends, is a hip swag in all it's glory.
Don't be afraid. Or, if you're like me and have the shape of a pear--be afraid. And then be a little disappointed when you see the hip swag add a couple inches to your hips, so instead of looking like the statuesque beauty pictured above, you look like this:
And nothing against Prince Charming and his royal festivities, but Anastasia and Drizella are pretty much what I don't want to look like on our wedding day. And I'm not really all that into the concept of resting a glass upon my ass, or whatever Annie and Driz were trying to do when this style was the rage. Sadly, I don't need help flagging attention to the lower half of my body.
Just had to take a moment to recognize the hip swag before I get into the second stop of our dress hunt. Get ready for more!
