Undergarments while dress shopping

Jamie, on January 24, 2023 at 4:10 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 7
Hi everyone. I am looking for recommendations on under garments for wedding dress. I’m starting my wedding dress shopping soon and not sure what to wear to try ons or the wedding day. I am smaller chested and petite.

    For dress shopping, I'd recommend nude underwear in whatever cut you're comfortable with and would likely wear on your wedding day and pasties or a sticky bra. Once you select your dress, you can consider whether you'd want to wear a bra, a special pair of underwear, etc. and what would work best with the specific dress you pick.

    Yes nude under garments is always the best and you can choose either a one piece or 2. Then it can help you know what kind you need to wear for your wedding day. Happy dress shopping and Saying yes to your dress

    Definitely nude underwear. I wore a pair that mostly covered. I didn’t wear a bra at all or pasties or anything. The person helping me would turn around and let me step into a dress and pull it up around me and then would help zip me in so I was never exposed to her

    I wore nude underwear and a nude strapless bra (I am larger chested so I cannot go without a bra of some sort.) Depending on the style of dress, part of the bra showed at times but I don't think it negatively affected my experience. Given that you are smaller chested, I'd say just nude underwear and maybe pasties for your appointment. Happy shopping!

    I agree. nude panties. I went braless but I am comfortable with being braless.

    After you've chosen your dress, you should wear the underwear you plan to wear with it to your fittings. Based on what you've said, you should probably wear some kind of padded bra to balance out your figure. And yes, definitely a nude shade so nothing shows through the dress. And, depending on your "curves", and how clingy your dress is, consider wearing a piece of shapewear so that you look smooth in the gown and it will not cling to you. (I performed for 40 years with a woman's chorus and when we were in costume, everyone, including the petite/skinny girls, was required to wear a "slimming undergarment". But be guided by what the dress fitter tells you.
