Wedding day is an exciting moment in the life of every bride. Wanting to look their best, girls resort to a long and careful selection of their wedding wardrobe. After all, choosing a dream dress that suits your figure requires a lot of patience and time.
In order to feel confident and comfortable in a wedding dress, it is not enough to choose the right dress. You should approach the choice of wedding underwear with the same care and diligence. Firstly, it is underwear that will emphasize the advantages and hide the shortcomings of the bride’s silhouette. Secondly, chic lingerie will allow a girl to look no less stunning and unique on her wedding night.
How many sets of underwear should a bride buy?
Purchasing a double set of wedding underwear only makes sense if the bride will actually have the opportunity to change after the formal event. You should also remember that taking off a lush outfit is much more difficult and takes longer than an ordinary everyday dress.
Before leaving home with the groom, the bride has the opportunity to change her underwear during the banquet, but towards the end. The toastmaster can tell her about this. If the future wife managed to find two sets of underwear that she is completely satisfied with and likes, then this is a great success. Let her wear one comfortable set during the day, and for a beautiful wedding night, wear something sexy and dazzling.
The principle of choosing intimate clothing for a wedding wardrobe is to focus on convenience and high-quality camouflage under the open cutouts of the dress style.
How to choose the right bra for a wedding dress?
It seems that the answer to this question is simple. But when the time comes for searching and numerous fittings, you realize that not everything is so easy. For a wedding ceremony, preference is usually given to white or pastel linen.
We offer several useful points:
- When choosing a bra for a dress with the goal of spending the entire wedding day in it, you should focus on high-quality breast support rather than on the sexiness of the lingerie. Brides are often worried that their breasts look saggy. To avoid such unnecessary worries, it is recommended to choose a bra with a push-up effect. Push-up bodices allow your breasts to look fuller without losing their naturalness. They contain cotton, gel, and water fillers. This makes the décolleté area attractive. It is better not to buy underwear with lacing and ribbons, because... These elements cut into the body and rub the skin.
- The best option is seamless wedding lingerie. A seamless bodice is an irreplaceable item in which you can comfortably spend the whole day. It will not be noticeable under a light summer wedding dress. If the bride prefers traditional sets, then you should make sure in advance that they will not be visible under the fabric of the dress. The goal is to achieve a sleek silhouette using quality linen.
- Modern wedding dresses don't always feature traditional necklines. Therefore, when choosing a bodice, you should remember that it is not noticeable against the background of a deep neckline. What are the options here?
- Strapless bras and so-called bandeau bras are indispensable for an off-the-shoulder wedding dress. The lack of straps has a negative impact on breast support. Bando is better in this case. But its downside is that it slightly tightens the chest.
- For an outfit with a low back, bras that fasten at the back are designed.
- Girls with small breasts are recommended to use an invisible bodice - silicone cups with an adhesive base. This bra is completely invisible and provides good support. Unfortunately, it is not suitable for large breasts.
- Brides who have not yet decided on a dress, but would like to purchase wedding lingerie, are advised to pay attention to a comfortable transformable bodice. The essence of its use is that, if necessary, the straps are fastened with a cross - crosswise in front or behind, it is appropriate to wear a piece of clothing without straps, and form it into a top of various shapes.
When choosing underwear for a change, you can give preference to bold, sexy sets. During the day, exquisite straps and decorative elements will get in the way, but after changing clothes before the wedding night, the girl will pleasantly surprise her husband. Sexy set - what is it?
- Sexy underwear is, first of all, an abundance of lace. The main thing is that the bra and panties are partially trimmed with lace, and not completely made of it.
- For your wedding night, underwear doesn't have to be traditional white or nude. Since the set will be seen exclusively by the husband, the girl has the opportunity to show her imagination. Pastel shades are associated with modesty, while striking black is associated with sexuality.
Bra for a wedding dress?
Most dresses are sold with a bodice already sewn in, which is often enough to provide support. Therefore, you may not need a bra at all. However, if the style of the dress requires its presence, you have plenty to choose from.
Modern lingerie salons offer a huge selection of bras to create the perfect wedding look. You can find options with inserts, ruffles, bows and other decorative elements. In order not to get confused in such a variety, let's figure out which wedding dresses are suitable for different types of bras:
- Bra without straps
This is a great option for off-the-shoulder corset dresses. However, be careful with such models and try them on with the dress in advance. Sometimes the lack of straps leads to the need to constantly tighten and adjust the bodice of the dress, and this is very uncomfortable.
- Transformable bra
It received this name because the straps can be refastened and positioned in a way that is convenient for you. Such a transformer will be absolutely invisible under dresses with an open back or shoulders.
- Balconette
The balconette looks like a wide horizontal strip, but at the same time it perfectly highlights and lifts the chest. It looks best in combination with a square neckline. A strapless balconette also deserves attention, especially for an off-the-shoulder dress.
- Plunge bra
This is a rather unusual model, consisting of small-diameter cups with a low jumper, which allows you to wear clothes with a deep neckline. A beautiful neckline is achieved by leaving most of the bust open while the cups support the sides of the bust. This option is ideal for dresses with a deep or unusual neckline, which can be difficult to match with underwear.
- Bra with super flat seams
For a fitted wedding dress, this is the most suitable option. Typically, such bras are made from soft knitwear, and the seams are almost invisible and are not felt when the underwear comes into contact with the body. That is why such lingerie will not stand out under a tight dress, and is also suitable for brides with sensitive skin.
- Seamless bra
This model assumes a complete absence of seams. Also, like the previous option, it will not be visible under a wedding dress that fits strictly to the figure.
- Push-up bra
This option lifts the breasts and makes them visually larger. Push-up will emphasize all the advantages of small breasts, especially in combination with a corset dress.
- Bra with seams on cups
The peculiarity of such bras is the presence of various seams on the cups. This is perhaps the best option for brides with large breasts, or under fluffy dresses with frills.
However, bras are far from the only option for wedding underwear.
How to choose panties as underwear for your wedding day?
- The main goal when buying panties is to provide yourself with comfort and confidence. The underwear should not dig into the skin too much or slide off when its owner moves. It is recommended to choose comfortable panties that will be almost imperceptible during a long busy day.
- If you have a tight-fitting dress or a dress made of thin fabrics, you should buy seamless panties. Panties with trim and lace will be noticeable under a light outfit and will “disturb” the silhouette of the body.
- There are panties attached to tights. This allows you to visually create a tight silhouette of the figure.
- It is not recommended to purchase sexy lingerie for your wedding day. Let it be purchased specifically for the couple's first wedding night. It is advisable that panties and bra be one set.
- You should think about panties - shorts or panties. The first option fits the body well. Both types of underwear are very comfortable and pleasant to the skin. Lace and mesh trim will add special passion to the conservative type of intimate clothing.
- Many girls will agree that tanga panties are uncomfortable to wear. But if preference is still given to this type of underwear, it is better to purchase a product made of soft, seamless microfiber. Cotton will also minimize discomfort.
Bodysuit
This version of underwear will be in perfect harmony with a tight-fitting wedding dress made of very thin material. This is due to the fact that the bodysuit has a one-piece cut that can hide some figure flaws. Since the seams in a bodysuit are virtually invisible, it is a great option for dresses made from very thin fabrics and tight-fitting outfits. There are variations decorated with lace and various inserts, so this lingerie looks very impressive and sexy.
Choosing stockings for the bride
General recommendations for choosing stockings are to pay attention to their density. If the wedding is planned for a summer day, choose light, thin stockings. On a cold winter day you cannot do without high-density stockings, because... they should provide not only beauty, but also warmth. Traditionally, stockings for a wedding are chosen to be white or flesh-colored. What other nuances are important to remember?
- If the bride is overweight, you need to buy hosiery with support. The socks themselves will be light, and the support will be made of dense material. This allows you to hide extra pounds around the waist and hips.
- For those who find wearing stockings uncomfortable, we recommend buying knee socks. When you arrive at a restaurant, you can take them off.
- For active brides planning to dance and participate in wedding competitions, it is better to choose leotards to avoid incidents and for ease of movement.
- Stockings combined with a belt and garters look sexy. If the style of the wedding dress allows, such a set is appropriate to wear for the whole day. If this will be inconvenient, then it is better to change clothes before the wedding night. The range of intimate lingerie contains a number of different models of belts and garters. Pairing them with white stockings is a classic look. It is recommended to choose a set of black and brown underwear for a romantic meeting at night with your now-legal spouse.
How to choose the right color
When the dress has already been chosen, it becomes clear what color to choose underwear. It should not be distinguished by radical bright colors. A traditional wedding dress is white, give or take some shade, so the linen should be in the same color scheme so as not to reveal its presence by showing through the fabric.
If you additionally select underwear for your wedding night. There is no connection to color here, completely surrender to your taste preferences and fantasies that you are going to realize. Do not opt for strict sets; pay attention to additional decorative elements, lush lace, bright colors, iridescent rhinestones, and stones. All this will add more happy moments in the intimate atmosphere of the first wedding night.
Does the bride need to purchase a corset, shapewear, chemises and other intimate clothing items?
Modern wedding underwear allows you to correct any figure flaws and highlight your advantages. How to properly use the various details of your intimate wardrobe?
- Shapewear is designed to disguise extra pounds on the waist, hips, and back. The so-called drawstrings are made from high-quality lycra and spandex. With the help of underwear, a smooth and slimmer silhouette is created. Fat folds are successfully hidden and visually aligned.
- Those wishing to visually increase breast volume are recommended to use corsets, bustiers, and graces. The effect of a seductive figure is achieved by tightening the waist and lifting the chest. A seamless bustier is quite appropriate to wear to a wedding ceremony. For your wedding night, it is better to purchase a corset with lacing on the back and underwires in the bodice area. Thus, the bride will appear before her lover in a stunning form.
- Short shirts and short shirts are suitable for brides who prefer to look modest, gentle, and non-aggressive on their wedding night. Usually the length of the shirt reaches the waist area; the shirt covers the hips. The image of an innocent girl will be complemented by silk and satin shirts. Under the shirt, you can choose translucent underwear made of organza, translucent fabric.
As a rule, wedding lingerie is sold as a set. Brides are recommended to purchase a ready-made set, because... you don’t have to select similar items of clothing and worry about their combination. After all, the main goal is to choose not only the right underwear, but also to create a unified image.
