The Right Wedding
Underwear Makes a Real Difference!
Finally! You’ve found the gown of
your dreams for your wedding day and now the search is over, you
should turn your attention to finding your wedding underwear.
Diamond Bridal Bra |
Majority of brides leave finding their
underwear until a few weeks before the actual wedding date, probably
thinking that they will be a bit slimmer or slightly more toned. It
is advised to have your bridal underwear before your final dress
fitting, as in reality your size won’t have changed that much in
the final 6-8 weeks before the big wedding date and rarely enough to
change a full dress or bra size, and most underwear is designed to
accommodate for some personal adjustments.

Before you start looking for lingerie
for the big day, there are 3 aspects to consider and they are all
closely interlinked and very importantly must all work in harmony
with each other. Firstly yourself the bride, the wedding gown &
finally the wedding lingerie, it may sound simple but is surprising
how many brides buy a beautiful wedding corset that fits them
perfectly only to find it doesn’t work well with their gown!
Similarly, brides can find a great bridal wedding bustier which works
with the dress, but struggle to find the right size or it doesn’t
work in harmony with their body shape. So all aspect of this “bridal
lingerie” should work in harmony together and complement each other
with the aims of making you look and feel beautiful, whilst bringing
you comfort & support with maximum confidence.

When it comes to choosing your wedding
underwear start with something you’re going to be comfortable with,
it’s not the type of occasion to try new things. If you’re not
comfortable with your underwear going over your hips then your
wedding day isn’t the day to try out a full figure corset!
Wedding Corsets & Bridal
Bustiers
Satin Bow Bustier |
A wedding corset is still a popular
choice with many brides as they offer great support and can have a
great slimming effect by pulling you in at the waist by up to 4”.
By their very design a bridal corset can produce a wonderful shape to
your figure, perfect for brides aiming for that stunning hour glass
silhouette. When deciding on a wedding corset or bridal bustier
consider the boning in the design, whether it’ll show through your
gown or indeed be too restrictive when worn with your dress,
especially if the gown already has boning in the bodice.
Strapless Bridal Corset |
On a similar note you also need to
think about the outline of your lingerie, to make sure it remains
well covered by your dress, if the outline is quite close to the gown
then at least match the colours as close as possible.
Low Back Wedding Lingerie
A great many wedding dresses are open
back & off the shoulder designs which apart from the obvious fact
they necessitate a strapless wedding lingerie solution, they also
need wedding underwear with a low back.

If this is the case, it’s even more
important your lingerie for the final dress fitting, to check their
compatibility. Another option for low back wedding underwear
is to opt for some bridal shapewear, there are some great body
shapers in both white & ivory colours that have some fantastic
slimming effects. Modern shapewear combine different materials in
their panelling to provide focussed toning & shaping effects to
specific areas, be it the waist, hips, bum or tummy.

When you have the main part of your
bridal lingerie figured out, don’t stop there, you’re not quite
finished. As with many things the devil is in the detail, so don’t
forget your accessories. If you are going to be wearing wedding
stockings or bridal hold ups then it’s a good idea to have a spare
pair just in case you get a ladder on the wedding day itself, even
just a cheap pair as a backup.
Last but not least, the wedding garter.
Something Blue Garter |
The wedding garter is perfect for
incorporating “the something blue” into your wedding day out fit
to keep with the something old, something new, something borrowed,
something blue, a sixpence in your shoe tradition!
