			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> </p>
<p>                        \&#8221;&#8230;You don\&#8217;t look like one&#8230;\&#8221;</p>
<p>                            So  how  <strong>do</strong>  you <strong> </strong>look?</p>
<p>                        &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>
<p>                              Shlomit Tamir Ben-Ari   -  Image consultant  *</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>A communication gap is caused when others perceive us in a assorted way  we meant  them to.</p>
<p>The fact is, that the first notion is the strongest one. Even unconsciously, people will look for a proof  to verify and justify their gut feeling.</p>
<p>So, since we don\&#8217;t get a second chance to make the first impression, and since assorted occasions demand assorted looks, we better be aware of the various styles, learn what they project, and put this message in action.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> Before we decide on  the image  we want to convey, it is important to insist on three factors:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>1. The appurtenances should be appropriate to the time and place :</p>
<p>    For example, a mini touch that reveals toned legs, should be saved for a ethnic occasion.</p>
<p>    A Polo shirt should be worn during vacation time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>2. The call should be consistent and continual :</p>
<p>    You wouldn\&#8217;t  want  to project  authority and  reliability on one day, and  appear dishelved                                  </p>
<p>   on the next.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>3. The assorted pieces of the appurtenances will be of the same call :</p>
<p>    A watch with a rubber band will clash with the suit.</p>
<p>    A impressible pen will look out of place in  a  dress-shirt\&#8217;s pocket. </p>
<p>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We\&#8217;re talking about four main styles. Each one of them conveys a  unique  and different  message:</p>
<p>The artist style, the sporty style,  the dramatic,  and the romantic style.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>The artist Style</strong><strong>  </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>The appearance.</strong></p>
<p>When we watch people who are dressed in the artist style, we immediately have a scenario in our head regarding their personality.</p>
<p>They look mature, sincere, respectable, trust worthy, authoritative, self control, powerful, and thinkers. The strength look as belonging to the high society, substantially educated, financially substantially off, and in a senior-position in the corporate.</p>
<p>The artist call people strength also appear to be formal, conservative, keeping distance, non- adventurous.</p>
<p>In order to send this image, here are some suggestions:</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>The wardrobe.</strong></p>
<p>Silhouette -   should be straight and in place. Not puffed, not floaty.  Covering the vast area of the body.</p>
<p>Fabrics -  cotton, blended cotton, wool, ( cool wool for season ), blended wool,                                                                                              gabardine,   silk, ( a women\&#8217;s blouse ). </p>

<p>To Be continued&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This year, the watchword in wedding gowns is &#8220;elegance&#8221;. Pure, drop-dead, delicious elegance. Whether the look is contemporary, traditional or high couture, the overall see on the wedding runways is unmistakable, itâs a return to la Belle Epoch, a world of chic elegance and graceful, dramatic silhouettes. Hereâs what to be on the lookout for if youâre shopping for a wedding gown in the Spring/Summer 2009 season.</p>
<p>Asymmetrical Lines</p>
<p>Asymmetry is definitely in this season, but that doesnât mean that the look is lopsided. The elegance is in the details and the execution. One of the most elegantly lopsided dresses for Spring 2009 is Priscilla of Bostonâs Style 1408, a stunning one-shoulder ball gown that features a draped bodice and lopsided waistline to balance the lopsided neckline. The effect is just as lovely from the back as it is from the front with the modify waist echoing the diagonal of the one-shouldered bodice.</p>
<p>Silhouettes</p>
<p>The most prominent silhouette in this seasonâs range of elegant wedding gowns is the &#8220;fit-to-flare&#8221;, a cut that is ingratiating for most figures. The coiffe is cut to fit the torso, and then flares below the hip into a wide swirl. The most exaggerated fit-to-flare cut is the trumpet flare, which starts slim and swirls into a ground-sweeping flare at the floor. added very ingratiating silhouette for your big day is the A-line dress, a classic wedding gown shape that fits closely at the bodice, and then flares out softly to the hem. Perhaps the most elegant wedding gown for a formal, traditional wedding though, is the ball gown, which combines a fitted bodice with a bell-like skirt. The Platinum Collection makes great use of the ball gown to create elegant couture looks in unusual and unexpected fabrics and styles.</p>
<p>Necklines</p>
<p>Sweetheart bodices, once considered the eventual in elegance for fairy tale weddings, now hit a lot of competition. Some of the most elegant equal wedding gown styles feature strapless bodices, often fanned or pleated. Many of the popular wedding gown styles feature truelove necklines modified to work with a strapless design. One shoulder lopsided designs are added elegant option for the equal bride, especially if the lopsided look is balanced by fullness at the hem or a contrasting imbalance at the waist.</p>
<p>Pleated Bodices</p>
<p>Fan-pleated bodices are added wedding gown feature that you will see walking down the runway at the most elegant designer Spring shows. Strapless, fan-pleated bodices arenât right for everyone, but theyâre an eye-catching accent for the bride who isnât overly endowed. Not all folding is fanned, however. Some of the prettiest and most elegant designs feature ruched bodices and flat bands of folding crossways the bodice, or vertically pleated satin and taffeta.</p>
<p>Hem Treatments</p>
<p>Hems are also getting the pleated treatment, along with flounces and tiers of lace. Some of the most elegant hem treatments include trumpet flares edged with alter or flounced with ruched netting. From the Vineyard Collection, the Ivy wedding coiffe model is the eventual in eventual elegance, a fitted cover coiffe of cloth and organza that features bands of satin detailing at the bodice and the hem.</p>
<p>Materials</p>
<p>The materials utilised to make a wedding gown are one of the major factors in determining the cut and the drape of the dress. The most elegant styles are those that move and flow with your body. Fabulous fabrics for wedding dresses include cloth in its many variations, including shantung and charmeuse. Other materials that are traditionally utilised in elegant wedding gown design include organza, satin and tulle, but one of the most elegant designs of this season is a eventual fit-to-flare gown made in chiffon and lace. The Holly, from the Vineyard Collection, features spaghetti straps, alter over chiffon and a flared skirt with insets of net that create an elegant sweep.</p>
<p>Lace</p>
<p>One of the most utilised laces in wedding gown design is Alencon lace, sometimes called the Queen of Lace. This embroidered alter is handmade, and highly prized for the dustlike needlework of the cording that makes up the designs. Alencon alter is often embellished with beading and metallic thread. Other alter that may be utilised in elegant wedding designs include Battenburg alter and metropolis lace. handstitched European lace, sometimes called Princess lace, may also be utilised in net overlays or for wedding veils.</p>
<p>Important Things to Remember</p>
<p>Elegance is often in the eye of the beholder, but there are a few key things to advert when choosing the right wedding gown for you.</p>
<p>1. naivety is often more elegant than fancy details.<br />2. Quality of materials and workmanship is essential. opt the finest materials and workmanship that you can afford.<br />3. Elegance is a matter of fit. Be sure to hit your gown fitted properly to you so that you see overconfident and beautiful in it. modify the simplest gown is elegant when itâs carried off with confidence.</p>
