Hold the measuring tape at your hollow while a friend pulls it down to the length you want your dress

In the north, Afro-Peruvian heritage stands out in colorful costumes and rhythmic movement, as seen in the Marinera and the Festejo

Elsewhere, Aflalo pairs demure long sleeves with a gathered-at-the-hip skirt, for something tailor-made for a city affair

As with many questionable noughties looks, the pairing feels so utterly nostalgic to our tween or teenage choices that it's even perhaps incomprehensible that we'd want to attempt it again now

The key is keeping the brides gown as the visual focal point through intentional contrast

In the snapshots and memories that immortalize this moment for eternity, what we wear becomes more than fabric and thread it becomes a tangible symbol of our journey, growth, and aspirations
