If you're petite, then a big flowing wedding dress may feel overwhelming. This Marilyn Monroe-inspired style is a classic, flattering shape and won't leave you feeling swamped in lots of fabric. Great for pear or boyish shapes, the David's Bridal Satin V-Neck A-Line Dress (£264) will create or conceal curves in all the right places. A short style needs thought for footwear; a black satin court or a strappy elegant heel would look fab. Oh, and the most important bit, it has pockets!
