To avoid this, most cosmetician suggest a soft natural look for the bride on her wedding day. Wear deeper, not brighter, colors, they advise, because the white of the wedding dress tends to make the bride's complexion appear pale. Other steps suggested by pro- fessionals. •Cover prominent shadows under your eyes, with a concealer one or two tones lighter than your skin. •Apply a light cover of foundation over your entire face, including your lips. It should match your natural skin color. For oily skin, use a water-based foundation and for normal to dry skin, use oil based.

Add cheek color. Powder blush lasts longer and looks more natural. Don't try contouring as this will be too noticeable in your photos. .Apply eye color that complements your blush and lip color. Browns, peaches, cin- namon and dark green eye shadow enhance peach blush; pink, plurn and grey shadow complement plum blush. Brown and black mascara give a natural effect, but avoid eye liners and iridescent eye shadow because they are too dramatic. .Apply lip color by outlining lips with a lip crayon, then fill them in with a dry lipstick. Blot off the lipstick, then re -apply it. This will make it last longer. Carry the powder and lipstick with you during the day, so you can retouch your lips and powder your face to make the makeup last. If you are using a water-based makeup, it can be freshened by giving it a light spong- ing with water. Romantic trend Attendants' dresses have come a long way from the days of insipid pastel chiffon and draped jersey gowns where styling came se- cond to subtlety. The romantic trend is mak- ing a welcome splash in the bridesmaid market and ruffled taffetas, rosebud pat- terned voiles and demure Southern belle styles with deeply flounced necklines and full skirts are new wedding party options with a longer fashion lifespan. Since the cost of bridesmaid's dresses has climbed with inflation, many brides are choosing attendants' outfits that don't scream bridesmaid. Something that the at- tendant can wear after the wedding. The formal style of the Royal wedding has influenced the hemline controversy. While cocktail and ankle baring dresses were popular recent awedding g are wearing floor length Wedding party colour schemes are usual- ly on the pallid side but spring's most popular shades - periwinkle blue, pink, rose and apricot - are flattering to . almost everyone. Lingerie story The lingerie story in 1985 will give pleasure to the wearer first and to. the viewer second. Each person is different. It depends a lot on the shape of the bride's dress. She could wear a tap pant (French cut short pant) and camisole or a teddy and tiny corselette in satin with a lace garter belt. All of these were considered not important before,. but today, they are now enjoying a Renaissance by the bride of '85. The lingerie story unfolds a little. further to .report the white peignoir is still a favourite choice for the wedding night. To let the magic live on the bride makes her entrance into a whole new beginning. She sets the stage with ivory Mace atop mat- ching satin encrusted with pearls and se- quins. To toast the bride with a silver wine goblet the groom can be handsome in a charcoal cutaway with classic striped trousers or a choice of a gray tuxedo with satin notch lapels. Wedding dresses are not something that Ehange dramatically over the years. In urope, the look is more elaborate, more outrageous. The tend to go to pastels. We. have a mixture of European embroidered organza and embroidered tulle. New for '85 is a very elaborate train with a lot of frills. Most brides go with the tradi- tional white but pinks and antique white are also very important. Whatever 'the wedding memory a beautiful dress, a diamond pen- dant for her, wedding bands, a silver invita- tion frame for the pleasure of your com- pany, or flowers, it has to be remembered as a very special day.
