How to Choose Bridal Lingerie
Posted on:
There are two types of bridal lingerie: what you wear for your wedding day, and what you wear for your wedding night. For the ceremony itself, focus undergarments that offer comfort and support. When you and your new husband can enjoy some alone time, slip into something with a little more edge.
Focus on support. During your ceremony, support and comfort are more important that sexiness. The last thing you need on your big day is to worry about sagging or falling out of your gown, and you probably want to avoid wires that stab into your side or lace that chafes your breasts.
Create a smooth silhouette. Look for seamless bras, especially if you have a gown made of lightweight fabric. You might be able to get away with a standard bra if your gown is made of heavier material, but you must make sure that no straps or other lines show through.
Mind your neckline. Not many gowns have a convenient neckline that works with a standard t-shirt bra. Find a bra specifically designed to work with your neckline.
- Choose a strapless bra or bandeau if you have a strapless gown. A strapless bra offers minimal support, while a bandeau offers plenty of support but may flatten your chest some.
- Look for a backless bra that hooks at the waist if you have a backless gown.
- Try stick cups if you have a smaller chest. These cups adhere to your skin, offer basic support and coverage. They do lack the same sort of support an actual bra would provide, however, so they are not recommended for women who are heavily endowed.
