What shape wear for wedding gown

What are you trying to achieve? tummy compression? Legs? Bust support? And what shape is the dress? This will help people suggest particular brands and types.

Generally speaking, you can't have tummy compression with a super low back, because it needs to go the whole way around to suck you in.

Spanx is probably the most famous one, but the Kim K line is supposed to be really good too, although it sells out really quickly.

Do you need tummy compression or breast support? Both or something else entirely?


Try Honeylove or Shapermint for tummy control and boobhold.com for breast support if you can’t get boning added to the dress.

Will the back work with it though ?

I think it will really depend how low the back is.

the shaping comes from the material sucking you in from all sides, which is why you aren't going to get much tummy support if your shapewear garment has a low back.
