undergarments
The bra is easily the most important garment you'll wear on your
wedding day - next to the dress. Follow these tips to find the
right bra for you and your perfect dress:
==> Ask about the store's return policy. You might need to
purchase a few bras to try on with your dress and return the
bras that don't work.
==> Find a bra that's comfortable and supportive. Rather than go
for style or decoration, choose a bra that will support you
in your hour of need.
==> Buy the right bra for your dress:
* Adjustable bra: A dress with a wide shoulder line or skinny
straps needs a bra that has adjustable straps that you can
remove or criss-cross.
* Backless bra: To accompany a backless dress, you'll need a
bra that hooks at the waist. This kind of bra is always a
good choice for women with a C or D cup.
* Adhesive bra: For backless and strapless dresses, your best
bet might be a stick-on bra. If you have a large bust, this
may not be the best option.
==> Do a practice run. If you can wear your new bra for six hours
on a normal day, it will probably stand the test on your
wedding day.
Choose your hosiery carefully, taking into consideration your
dress style, your figure and your own comfort. Things to consider
when choosing hosiery are:
* Breath-ability: Thigh-highs, stocking-and-garter combinations
and garter hose offer the advantage of more ventilation.
* Smooth lines: On the other hand, if your dress is form fitting,
you'll get a smoother line with pantyhose. Control-top
pantyhose give the sleekest lines to all shapes.
* Matching colors: When you purchase your hosiery, take a swatch
of the dress with you to find a shade that works. An ivory
dress looks best with hose that has a beige or grayish tinge. A
pink or peach cast, on the other hand, works well with very
light pastels. Even pure whites can vary, so you'll want to
compare.
* Textures: You'll find stockings, thigh-highs and pantyhose in
an array of textures and patterns, including some with rosettes,
rhinestones or even wedding bell trim.
Panties, of course, are also a necessity. Make sure your panties
are comfortable, breathable and don't show through your dress in
sunlight or bright lights. You don't want to be thinking about
uncomfortable underwear while you stand in front of all your
guests. I know that the two don't often go together, but if
you've found an undergarment that is comfortable, yet flattering,
tell me about it. I'll pass it on to other brides. Please write
'Comfortable Undergarment' in the subject line.
