    I have a ball gown sweet heart neckline dress. What underwear do I wear? The dress maker said I need a push up bra and a knickers that hold my tummy in. My friend who is married said she wore nothing except a thong. She had the same sort of dress but smaller.
    Only thing I would like is something to cover my thighs as I hate my thighs touching and getting sticky but if I wear a gartar the pics won't be nice if I got Spanx on that go to my knee. Can you recommend any good bridal underwear sites and any advice as to what underwear to wear.
    Thanks in advance :) xxx

    U can wear anything or nothing if u want lol
    i have a strappless dress and plan on wearing a strapless bra they said theyd build loops in for my bra to go into to save any disatsers or dress coming down (not that it will) and i have a matching (sort of) thong to wear
    i feel more confortable wearing a bra in public lol it depends how structured and padded etc the dress is up top of its solid enuff that being cold or anything like that wont show then it deoends if your confortable not wearin a bra or not lol

    for your thighs cud u not wear sheer tights? That way its not really skin on skin and photos may not show too bad?(u cud always test it out before hand)

    U can get deep plunge strapless bras that wont show on your sweetheart dress and u can also get a low back

    Debs is good for bridal/nude ivory etc lingerie its where mine is from

    Depends on your bust and how stable your dress is. I only wore knickers under mine. The support of the bodice was enough to go without a bra.

    I have just bought from T3sc0 tummy holding in pants but they are the shorts kid so pull the top half of your thighs in too in nude! They do have a bit longer ones too and they don't cost the earth :)

    Is it best to wear white underwear or nude underwear. I'm worried people will see nude pants through the dress as it's like a beige colour??

    Im wearing spanks as have the thigh issues, but the only come down party way to stop my thighs from rubbing, as it will be summer so I'm not wearing tights. And it's skin coloured so no one should notice.

    I'm going to wear a bra or at least cups as don't feel comfortable not wearing a bra in public and will proberlY go for tummy tuck in pants as its a very slim dress and proberlY have them as shorts rather than knickers due to thigh rubbing lol x

    I'm being brave and going bra-less. I'm having straps put on the dress but it's structured enough for me not to need a bra. I was a bit worried at first but I've tried the dress a few times and actually forgotten I'm not wearing one! Underneath just knickers and hold ups. Tights will be too much hassle when I go to the bathroom. I got a whole bunch of bits and pieces from D3b3nh3ms and J0hn L3w1s. Very reasonably priced.

    I was told that satin knickers are best if you're stepping into your dress to get it on. It makes it easier to pull it up apparently.

    I wish someone could make pretty shaping pants rather than ones that look like cycling shorts. X
