Wedding dress without corset/boning

BlueAngelCV

I went out wedding dress shopping for the 1st time this week and was dismayed to find that even the fairly minimal/straight dresses I'm looking at all seem to have some sort of corset/boning inside.

Does anyone know where to look for dresses without this? I refuse to be uncomfortable all day on what is meant to be one of the best days of my life.

I think of all the dresses I tried on, only a couple had any actual boning inside them. The rest just had some support to the breast region as you couldn't wear a bra with those designs. I did try on quite a range of designers so couldn't tell you which one's did and which didn't, but they are out there. What style of dress are you looking for because a lot of the strapless or more structured designs will have to have the additional support to them in order to keep the shape.

Have you looked in places like Monsoon and Debenhams? Looking on their website their dresses look like they do not have the corset/ boning structure that a lot of wedding dresses do have.

I had a corset structured dress and it was actually really comfortable, I was surprised as I was expecting it to dig in, rub and feel like I was squashed in all day, but didn't feel like that at all.

You really should be comfortable not constricted in a wedding gown and it all deoends on your gown style. Seek local dressmakers who can adapt something to your requirements
