1. V-neck
Dare to go for a plunge? This style may not be for the shy and retiring types – or, let’s be honest, those who are a bit more buxom – but it’s knock-out look will have heads turning.
2. Strapless
A stunning summer neckline, strapless gowns bare the entire shoulder, which means you need to be careful with those tan marks!
3. Off-the-shoulder
These gowns – in which the shoulder straps or sleeves hang just over your uppermost arms – possess the allure of strapless dresses, without the worry of baring too much.
4. The Queen Anne
Look like a star with the Queen Anne neckline, a pretty and romantic alternative to the more risqué styles. And, it comes in various looks at the front: scoop, V-neck or sweetheart.
5. High-neck
For a regal look – which also possesses a vintage vibe – the high-neckline found on some gowns is comfortable, while framing your best asset: your face.
6. Asymmetrical
Not your run-of-the-mill, the asymmetrical neckline – a one-shoulder strap, leaving one arm completely bare – is comfortable and will have you moving and dancing till the early hours.
7. Halter-neck
Halter-neck gowns, in which the straps wrap around the neck, instead of providing support from the shoulders, have a summer-vibe about them, giving a laid-back tone to your big day.
8. Illusion
Invite your guests – and your future spouse – to look up with an illusion neckline. Here, transparent panels (sequinned, lace or tulle) stretch from the top of the bodice to create a vintage look which screams class.
9. Round-neck
A classic, unfussy look which allows the dress to stand out on its own, the round-neck is typically associated with T-shirts, but there’s nothing casual about this style.
10. Bateau
Megan Markle sported this neckline at her wedding last year – and in many other official occasions since – so you’d be in good company if you opted for it. The fabric traces the curve of the bride’s collarbone, inviting your new spouse to kiss your neck!
