INTIMATES 101: WHAT EVERY BRIDE NEEDS TO KNOW
It's all about the right fit, comfort, and a little bit of magic! ✨ Here’s the scoop on how to pick intimates that will keep you looking snatched without sacrificing comfort. Follow these guidelines and you’ll be all set to find the perfect undergarments that will have you feeling fab from "I do" to the last dance! 👰♀️
Silhouette:
Yes girl, the cut of your gown matters! For sleek, curve-hugging dresses, a bodysuit or thong-style shapewear is a winner. 🏆 Wearing a ballgown or an A-line dress? You can get away with less since they’re already structured!
Fabric:
Look for fabrics that can keep you cool while you’re busy heating up the dance floor! 💃 Words like “breathable” or “moisture-wicking” are your best friends here. Plus, make sure that fabric stays put — we don’t want it to roll up or down mid-vows! 🙅♀️
Color:
While wedding white sounds cute, under garments in your skin tone is the way to go! Trust us, it creates a more flawless look, especially if the fabric of your gown is thin.
Compression & Structure:
Want to smooth things out for those flawless wedding photos? Go for high-compression shapewear to achieve that sculpted look. If you need that extra lift in the bust, opt for pieces with boning. Want something more laid-back? A simple slip can work wonders for a less structured look. Whatever you choose, be sure to try it on with your dress before the big day. We don’t want any last-minute surprises! 🙈
Comfort:
Don’t forget—the ultimate rule is comfort! You’ll be walking, dancing, and celebrating all day, so pick something that feels amazing. No poking boning, itchy fabric, or constant adjusting allowed here!
