On your wedding day all eyes are on you and your dress, we don't need to point that out, to make sure you are looking and feeling the best you can, be sure to have the correct hidden support!
Finding the correct lingerie for your shape and wedding dress will give you a sleek silhouette, keep you supported in all the right places and help your dress look its best. Bridal underwear is a bit like the foundations of your home, you would never build a house without them, so why wear your wedding dress with a dodgy sized bra!
No matter the shape of your gown, we've come up with the perfect solution...
Strapless
Strapless bras are the most common shape of bra worn by brides as they are the solution to many bridal gown shapes. Available in all shapes and sizes they are usually available with matching briefs.
Left: Charnos Eve basque will give you the same support as a strapless bra whilst nipping you in at the waist - a sexier option that a standard bra by Charnos.
Tight: Moulded strapless longline bra with pretty pastel floral print and matching briefs, from Freya Lingerie.
Backless
It can be hard to find a solution if your wedding dress is backless! What you need is a self adhesive bra like the options below. The adhesive ensures a comfy fit and will remain in place all day.
Left: Superboost strapless bra with self adhesive sides offers extra push-up padding, available from Figleaves.
Right: Underwired moulded strapless bra by Fashion Forms, available from Figleaves.
Halterneck/One Shoulder
With both a halterneck and one shouldered dress you could always wear a strapless bra, but if you like the support of a strap you should choose a multiway option, which has straps that can be used in many different ways.
The Belle strapless bra and matching briefs from Charnos are one of their leading bridal ranges, with the pretty detailing it is easy to see why.

Smooth
