The trumpet silhouette on a wedding dress consists of a skirt that gradually flares out, alongside a bodice that is close-fitting, skimming the shape of the body through the hips.
With second hand trumpet wedding dresses there is no hard and fast rule of where exactly the gown should begin to flare at. However, most wedding gowns tends to begin the flare at around the mid-thigh area. For this reason, used trumpet wedding dresses can be seen as a hybrid of two popular silhouettes: the modified A-line silhouette and the mermaid silhouette.
