What underwear/gear did you wear when wedding dress shopping?

Shaunna.M, on January 10, 2014 at 11:42 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 19

Title speaks for itself Lol I probably wont be dress shopping for another two months or so but am curious to see what others worse? did you wear strapless bra if trying on strapless dresses or did you just find it easier to tuck the straps in? Did you wear any kind of shapewear?

    That is all .... well, I wore clothes into the place.

    I wore white underwear and a strapless bra. But most dress stores have shapewear that you can try on with it if you don't like the way it looks without it.

    I wore a strapless slip. It worked with all dresses and I was modest for the consultant

    @Rebekah - I said gear because last time I just said underwear (on another forum) they only specified what underwear they were wearing, no mention of bra or shapewear

    Thanks for the other comments ladies Smiley smile

    I'd like to have my corset/bustier already bought by then. But tbh, I was just planning on my strapless bra and a pair of nude cotton panties Smiley smile LOL

    A friend who is a sales associate in a bridal boutique told me:

    1 Wear spanx/girdle

    2 Bring 2 bras - strapless and regular

    3 Wear shoes in the height you plan to wear

    I wore a white padded strapless and white jersey boy short undies. Considering the fact I was dressing in a room with the consultant, mymom, FMIL and both MOHs iI think I was pretty decent. Lol

    I didn't wear anything special. The bridal shop provided a strapless bra and slip.

    I had on a strapless bra and a thong. Didn't really think about trying to cover up, nor did I really care. Lol I'm not all that modest about that stuff.

    They gave me a slip and a bustier to try on with dresses, though, so it didn't matter what I had on originally anyway.

    I wore an under wire bra and boy shorts with a foundation tank top (took straps down for strapless dresses)

    I wasn't worried about the consultant seeing me...at one point ( we were only ones in shop) I walked out in my underwear holding a dress up in front of me....

    I wore my shape tank, because I planned on wearing shape wear the day of my wedding too. May not have to (dress has built in everything!)

    This is actually a giggle memory for myself and my DD. I wore a comfy running suit with a white bra...but as soon as we were headed to the dressing room, I realized that I had, like usual, gone commando! LOL! Consultant offered me paper panties...but my DD ran next door to Marshall's and bought me a pair of white panties. LOL
