• Start looking around for white or nude-toned lingerie to wear under your dress on your wedding day. Shop around, try on different styles, and keep your dress in mind at all times – just because those frilly undies look cute, doesn't mean they will look flattering under a figure-hugging dress.

• If you've had a bespoke dress made, this is probably about the time that your dressmaker will call you in for a fitting. Take your wedding day-time lingerie with you, to make sure that the dress sits well with your underwear. Your dressmaker may need to make a few adjustments, to make sure that the dress looks as flattering as possible, on your big day. 

• If you've ordered an off-the-rack dress, it might have arrived by now. The same rule applies here as with a dressmaker fitting: take your day-time lingerie with you. If something doesn't look right, you may need to purchase different lingerie, or take the dress to a dressmaker for altering. Remember that in-built bras are a great option for specific cuts and body shapes- consult with your dressmaker!

 

One of the keys to make certain that your dress looks amazing on your big day is to ensure that the lingerie underneath is flattering.
