Rome, 31 August. (Labitalia) – Find out in a short time and in just one place how to make the wedding you dream of, among many proposals for locations, entertainment, decorations, favors, photos, travel, clothes, hairstyle and make-up for the bride and groom. From 19 to 22 October, the appointment with RomaSposa returns, the international bridal exhibition which brings the solutions of over 250 exhibitors to the Palazzo dei Congressi in Eur, the best representatives of the various product sectors that make up the wedding world.

The event, one of the most awaited on the trade fair calendar for over 30 years, is an opportunity to receive advice that satisfies the most diverse requests, from etiquette to the look of future spouses and guests, a 360° journey in the wedding sector that inspires dreams and desires, with novelties and trends. The calendar of Rome bridal fashion week shows is rich, the event within the RomaSposa event that will allow visitors to see highly tailored and original dresses worn on the catwalk, made by national and international ateliers, with models for both the queen of the wedding , which for the groom and for ceremonies.

The world of wedding dresses is a universe of shades of all different types of white and it is extremely difficult to guess the right white (or other color). Often the dress is chosen on the basis of a single rationale, the emotional one, but with the help of color harmony – which aims to identify the colors of clothing and cosmetics that best harmonize with skin tone, eye color, lips and hair, enhancing the aesthetic aspect of the person – the bride, but also the groom, change their point of view.

“As a first step, it is necessary to carry out the armochromatic consultancy with the relative tests to understand the season to which it belongs and from that to derive the parameters of ‘heat’ (cold/hot) and ‘intensity/contrast’ (softer colors/brighter colors) to then identify which types of white, or colored dresses, can represent the right choice for the wedding queen” explains Germana Merra, image consultant and professional make-up artist for the first time at Romasposa for the October 2023 edition .

“Let’s not forget – he explains – that the color scheme is 50% of the weight of the choice. The other 50% is given by morphology, and therefore what shapes we have and what types of dress shapes enhance us. Combining color and shape, we get a set of possible choices. Possible choices that may not trigger the emotional spark at first glance, but which will certainly highlight the person in her whole aspect that day. It often happens that only the dress stands out and the bride or groom fade into the background, also creating a dissonant effect in the photographic reportage”.

The only goal to pursue is to bring out the bride and groom and the make-up follows the same line: always according to the armochromatic analysis, the indication of the experts is the use of cold and intense colors for a season like winter, cold and pastel for the summer, or warm for a season like autumn or spring. These ‘little’ tricks make the difference between a make-up that enhances and one that could instead achieve the opposite effect. Not only for women, but also for men: the harmonization of the male face, the correction of small imperfections and a light but impeccable make-up for the groom are increasingly in demand. The make-up and the dress are not everything, the hairstyle (for men/women) and the style of the beard for men have great power of image and communication. The whole is completed by a wise choice of accessories always in harmony with the identified colors and shapes.

Among the many selection and test criteria for an ideal bridal make-up, the combination with the bridal model to show off is highly interesting and the choice of hairstyle and make-up styles must adapt to the theme and style of the wedding. Thus a nude make-up, which is there but cannot be seen, is perfect for minimal dresses, with pure and sober beauty, while a seductive make-up (with magnetic smokey eye) is recommended for more sensual dresses such as those with a mermaid cut .

Those who opt for a princely wedding, with a particularly elaborate look, can follow the path of an equally sparkling make-up or, in contrast, bring out the eyes and lips with a lighter and more minimal solution that gives balance to everything. Also keep an eye on vintage: if you choose to wear a dress that recalls the lines of the past, the advice is to also take inspiration from the period in question for the make-up and hairstyle. Without exaggerating though, the mask effect is just around the corner.

Don’t forget then, taking into account the theme and style of the wedding, to create a perfect visual harmony of the couple that reflects the uniqueness of the spouses. Photo book proof.
