Hi guys Hope some one can help. I am having a real nightmare deciding what underwear to get to go with my dress. I had a real nightmare with my dress and am now having the sample dress which is one size too small as it is a zip up. The lady in the shop has offered to change it to a lace up back which means she can alter the back so I can wear a bra but not sure I want to do this to the dress. My dress is 'Elaine' by romantica. Any one with ideas would be much appreciated. Tia

Ultim0 do low backed, strapless bras, so it should be totally unseen. D3b3nhams also do a range of bridal underwear so if that is no good I'm sure you could find something there that would suit your dress x

I'm not sure what exactly you are asking?
I think the dress looks lovely how it is, however if you have gone a size smaller can the zip go up now? If it can't then you may have to change to a lace up just so that the dress does up.

Suppose it depends on your bust size as to whether you can get away without one. Or you have those extension things for low backed dresses.

if it fastens and you want to leave the dress as it is then i would suggest not wearing a bra (depending on your bust size and confidence) or you could ask her to sew some cups into the dress but again that could depend on your size (I'm a 34E and once had a dress for a ball with cups sewn in and it really didn't work they were everywhere lol) xx

Thanks Emmap2b I will have s look. Yes glitterfairy that is my dress. :)
I am trying to loose weight by April before I go for my final fitting before we change for a lace back.
I am a 36D so not sure if I need a little support but I already don't like strapless bras as they never really do anything for me
Thanks for the response ladies

I just got a really good low back all in one thing from [link removed] it has a bit of tummy control too. Not the most attractive but I will get some other nice knickers for underneath. My dress is not so low as that but I have inches to spare on the back so it could work.
There are removable straps that you can do up in loads of ways like low back or it is strapless, I am going to get some double sided tape and tape it to me as well. I don't need so much support but was just conscious about going braless as hoping for ceremony outside and it might be a bit nippy...
It is really hard to find, I just had to buy loads and take them to the fitting then return the ones that weren't right! Make sure you can return them though some places don't accept bras back.
