If you want a sophisticated look on your
big day, you may consider a classic style without too many embellishments. Bateau
neck wedding dress is perfect choice for a traditional wedding because of the
extra coverage it gives. Many famous bridal gown brands like Oscar de la Renta,
Kelly Faetanini, Maggie Sottero, Amsale and Lela Rose all launched stunning bateau
necklines.
Why choose bateau neck style?
A bateau neckline, also sometimes called a
boat neck, is a wide, shallow neckline that typically starts an inch or two in
from the shoulder. The gentle arc resembles the curved shape of a boat's keel,
giving it its nautical name. This simple shape is usually symmetrical from
front to back, although some variations dip lower in back. Today’s brides are
adopting the high bateau neckline but as a sheer or lace overlay, so just a
hint of skin can be seen through the fabric. The wide top follows the natural
curve of your collarbone and works to enhance the chest area. So, avoid this
style if you are very well endowed.
Bridal jewelry for bateau neck wedding gown
Since bateau neckline follows the natural
curve of your collarbone and there is little space for your necklace, you'd
better keep your accessories simple and elegant, so as not to compete with the
fabric close to the neck. Necklaces with a little length are perfect for this
retro style. You could also forego a necklace and go with mid-length earrings
and a matching bracelet. We recommend drop earrings to create some movement,
but not so long that they graze the shoulder or come close to the dress fabric.
Hairstyles for bateau necklines
Since the neckline reaches or even covers
your collar bones, you can choose a sophisticated and clean updo for this
rather demure look. Or you can try a classic chignon or a French twist with a
retro bouffant. If your bateau neckline is covered with lace overlay, you may
consider casual updos, braids or even half up/half down styles.
