Selecting the right style & design can seem a daunting task when facing the vast variety of styles available, but never be frightened back! Here is a handy guide for you to choose the proper lingerie according to the style of your wedding dress.
Lingerie for A-line & Full Skirted Wedding Dresses
With these styles of wedding dresses it is important to create a streamlined torso with a nipped in waistline.
Lingerie for Empire Line Dresses
An empire line dress is tightly fitted around the bust & then flows from under the bustline. What is important here is to choose a bra that will help keep everything in place!
Try a balconette bra which will give you great uplift or a padded or push-up bra which will help boost your assets.
Lingerie for Figure Hugging & Fitted Dresses
Styles such as mermaid or trumpet gowns, which are generally fitted through the torso, need underwear which will give you a smooth silhouette & a figure which your dress can glide over.
Grab some magic knickers, yes I know they aren't very sexy, but they are perfect for slimming down your tummy & bottom. Another option is a firm control hip & waist slip, again not very sexy, but it will smooth your hips & bottom contour.
Lingerie for One Shoulder & Backless Dresses
The problem with these styles is that you still need underwear but don't want everyone to be able to see it!
Look for a magic bra will support your bust without any unsightly straps, so perfect for backless dresses. For one shoulder dresses look for multiway bras which allow you to move straps into various combinations to suit the style of dress you are wearing.
Lingerie for Plunge & Low Cut Dresses
These dresses give you a daring neckline but you will need some secure support!
Go for a plunge bra which is specially designed for plunging & low cut necklines. They are supportive but low enough to be concealed. If you want allover support look for a plunge body which offers a low front & back as well as support all over.
Lingerie for Bias-cut & Column Dresses
The secret with these dresses is to allow them to float. Unfortunately the fabric commonly used in their design tends to cling to the body so you do not want underwear that will give visible lines under your dress.
Wear a silk slip under your dress which will be cool & comfortable whilst allowing the dress fabric to skim over your body. Also look out for seamless underwear particularly if your dress is made from very light or sheer fabric
