Versace<\/strong> is a bolder and more modern gown with low necklines, sporting very high slits along the side or front of the leg. They also love big ruffles. If you want to leave your guests speechless, Versace is your gown.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

But what is the big difference between the Italian wedding gown and the American wedding gown?<\/strong> As I browsed through hundreds of gowns from both Italian and American websites, I noticed a few differences.<\/p>

The Italian gown is elegant, classy, decorously flowing, and quite traditional, so it can be worn in a church without worrying about finding something to cover your shoulders, as some churches require. I also noticed that these gowns hug the body perfectly, seeming to bypass the rolls and curves that vary from woman to woman. The trains are there but tend to be barely noticeable. Here are a few examples:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The American gown is more spectacular<\/strong>\u2014puffy, frivolous, with a tendency to overemphasize the bride\u2019s breasts. These gowns have many layers or ruffles. They might have various flowers, whether small or large, sewn on them. In my opinion, it renders the gown tacky and boorish at times. Here\u2019s what I mean:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Now, the tux. Even the groom should look his best. And what better way than with an Armani<\/strong> suit. To this day, a suit or tuxedo by the \u201cMaestro\u201d of tailors is a must-have with grooms. Sure, Versace has some popping tuxes, but the classic tailored suit or tuxedo will go a long, long way<\/strong>. After having researched both Italian and American tuxedos, I have not found many differences in the tailoring aspect, but I have noticed that Italian men always look better than American men. Perhaps because I\u2019m biased. But I was at a wedding just last month and the groomsmen were a mix of Italian heritage and American, and the Italians stood out with style and charisma, meanwhile the Americans\u2026well…look below and see what I mean:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
