Shapewear sos

Marley, on November 26, 2019 at 10:31 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 11
My dress has a really low illusion back. I need some kind of shape wear that will smooth out the lower tummy without showing. Does anyone know of any brands or tricks that may work?

    With the back being so low, the pants shapewear will show through. As you had the belt in the 2nd photo, what about getting a slightly wider belt? Otherwise, it looks perfectly fine to me!

    Oh your dress is beautiful. I wanted a shapewear myself and it was impossible to find. Most good shapewear need to be all around to really suck in and define the area. I personally didn’t find anything that was backless that worked for me. My illusion was higher than yours but I had illusion on the side as well, not as uncover so I wore nothing.

    I should mention my dress was crepe so everything marked very easy so I also had that issue.

    I ended up going to a lingerie shop recommended by my tailor and showed them my dress. I figured that was easier than me stumbling through millions of options on the internet

    You look so beautiful in your dress Marley!

    Are you planning on wearing the belt with your dress?

    I had a low back dress as well and ended up using regular control top pantyhoes, you can cut the back to make lover as needed and keep the front smooth.

    I had 4 (yes 4) before this one and was being SO indecisive but it had been saved since I got engaged and they never had it in store. Once they did, I cried and my mom made me try it on and I lost it. It's the only one that gave me emotions lol. I love it, I just want a little extra tummy control. You have good taste Smiley smile

    I know exactly what you mean! I tried on 12 dresses and was about to give up and I decided to just try it on and I immediately fell in love! It was a surreal feeling. Your tummy looks fine in my opinion. I think you can pull it off! Me on the other hand,.. I have a lot of working out to do lol
