What is an infinity dress? An infinity dress, sometimes called a convertible bridesmaid dress, is a fantasy of a dress that will just be styled different in 27 different ways without needing to reveal arms, without the need of a tie, or adding any additional accessories. This type of dress is perfect for a casual wedding with everyone wearing their very own bridal jewelry sets. Many brides prefer it because it's easier to match one dress to each member of the bridal party at an event that doesn't require traditional bridal jewelry gifts.


What are the benefits of wearing an infinity dress? To begin with, it's comfortable for everyone wearing it. As mentioned, no one is wearing a traditional bridal jewelry gift; therefore everyone has a chance to get the style they want without feeling like their dress is being held up by their necklaces, earrings, bracelet, and other accessories. In addition, the style is versatile, allowing women who aren't normally comfortable flaunting their arms the freedom to wear them down a little bit without showing too much skin. Finally, there is a certain amount of style and femininity that comes from everyone having the option to wear an infinity dress without any type of special attention to the bottom half of their body.


What are the benefits of wearing an infinity dress with two straps? Although there are many styles that only have one strap with a vertical line down the middle of the back (almost like a band), there are also many infinity dresses that feature two straps with an "X" shaped pattern on the back. These are typically made from fabrics such as satin or charmeuse, which allow the "X" straps to drape and move with the movements of the wearer. They can give the bride a sleek, romantic feel, but they can also be worn as a more modern and comfortable alternative to wearing spaghetti straps.


Because an infinity dress with two straps is typically strapless, it is possible for the wearer to wear a bra, but many brides do not. The obvious benefit of this is that it allows the wearer to wear their cross-over bra, but many also choose to wear the cross-over bra underneath their infinity dress. There are many reasons to do this, but the most notable benefit is that when wearing a bra beneath the infinity dress (especially if the straps are spaghetti straps), the wearer has a greater range of motion.


One thing many brides forget to consider when choosing a fabric for their infinity dress is whether or not it will be comfy. To be sure, each fabric is different and each offers a different fit, so it's important to try on different styles and fabrics to get an idea of how they will feel. A satin or charmeuse fabric may feel great on some people, but it may restrict a woman's breathing. Conversely, cotton or other light fabrics may feel too warm on some people's skin.


Bridal shops and manufacturers can offer advice as to what styles are best for any bride, no matter their shape and size. For instance, wide-legged infinity dresses with sweetheart necklines are ideal for those with wider or narrower necks. Likewise, those with smaller or larger busts should choose either a halter neck style or choose strapless styles with an empire waistline. Wearing anything that doesn't provide an ease of movement, is not wise, because it will only increase stress around the wedding gown.


It's not recommended that a bride wear an infinity dress with a skin-tight fabric. Doing so will only accentuate her natural beauty and disguise any flaws. If wearing an infinity dress with skin-colored or patterned fabric, the best thing to do is to have them dyed a darker color to hide any irregularities. This is especially important if the dress has a darker hue of fabric at the bottom than at the top; if the fabric is sheer, the bottom half could show through easily.


The infinity dress should always be worn with a strapless bra. Women who prefer wearing underwire are usually the only ones who should wear this style of dress. For other women, wearing a strapless bra allows them to have a bit of sexy look. With the right undergarment, this could also make them look slimmer and give them a bust lift.
