Wedding dress and train lengths explained
Wedding dresses come in all sorts of styles, and the length of the dress and train have specific terms you may not have heard of before. Here we explain the most commonly used terms for dress and train lengths. Knee Length A knee length dress finishes at knee level. This style is ideal for a non-traditional wedding, and suits brides who are of small stature. Tea Length A tea length wedding dress falls to about mid-calf. This length is very popular at the moment, both on and off the catwalk. Giving a contemporary look they suit beach weddings , garden weddings or other less traditional styles. Floor Length This basically means no train. The wedding dress will be the same length both front and back. It’s ideal for more informal type weddings and on the beach as the dress won’t be dragging in the sand. Sweep Train This is a short train between 30 and 50cm from the hem, just sweeping the ground behind your feet. It is sometimes called a brush train. T
