Question about wedding underwear...
Kildare
Posts: 320 Forumite
Morning!
So, I'm planning to order my dress this weekend - its Allure 8526 http://www.allurebridals.com/index.php?id=3&product_id=95
Looking at the pictures I took when I first tried it on I've just realised that the back is a bit low for wearing a bra under - I'm very petite so I was planning to go with a strapless gel bra
Has anyone else had this problem with their dress and can you recommend any solutions??
Thanks!!

Stick on chicken fillets! Or those cotton pad things sewn into the front of your dress.Bump due 22nd September0

I'm not wearing a bra, the seamstress in the shop is stitching in chicken fillets for me!What matters most is how well you walk through the fire0

one of my friends got bra support stitched into her wedding dress as it just worked out easier than trying to find a bra that would suit, she is also fairly small so that might be the way to go.0

I've seen "low back" bras but not sure if that's just for ones with straps... by the way your dress is absolutely stunning!0

You could go for a basque like this, then you can stick chicken fillets in if you need.

or this already has gel padding:

I'd speak to the dress shop about it, alot are so well made you don't need a bra anyway. The shop I got mine from stitched some fillets into the actual dress, would have been hideously uncomfy to wear anything under it

Thanks!! I didn't realise they could stitch the padding/bra into the dress so I'll be sure to bring it up with them on Saturday :j
And thanks victoriamaine - I fell in love with it as soon as I put it on and only just managed not to order it there and then

I was in M&S the other day and they had backless bras! If you are small and want to wear one they reminded me of the snap bands we used to have as children!0
