Shapewear ideas?

Sara, on June 23, 2021 at 12:37 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 1 8
I still have a pudge stomach, my dress will not be getting here until 2 weeks before my wedding (😡😡). I have to go off of pictures to find shapewear because I can't remember and I won't have time to figure it out after getting the dress. I THINK the bodice is sheer but I also think it comes with a reversible nude or white panel that goes in? Man I wish I had time to decide what I wanted! But from the picture it is a lower back, so maybe I just don't wear any? I don't want to buy shapewear I can't return or spend a lot of money on something that won't work. Thoughts? Should I get some shapewear? Skip it?Shapewear ideas? 1

    I’m going to follow this post because I’m also having trouble finding shapewear for my dress. It has a very low back and I can’t find any core control shapewear that goes really low.

    I know right?? When I bought the dress, I wasn’t even thinking of shapewear. Should’ve thought things through. I would definitely feel more comfortable wearing something on the day of than going without shapewear but so far, no luck finding anything.

    Just to clarify the “I know right?” statement was in response to the “love handles and falling in love with low back dresses” comment. After I re-read my response it sounded like I’m being obnoxious and saying “I know right?” the the cute dress statement LOL

    You aren't going to find shapewear that is going to suck in your stomach and be backless. Shapewear works by literally constricting your body and there's no leverage to "pull" in your stomach if the fabric cannot wrap around the back. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

    I will say both you ladies look lovely in those dresses (at least from the back as shown) and don't need shapewear IMO!

    Yeah, that’s pretty much what I am finding out. Will most likely have to go without shapewear

    Try HoneyLove or Shapermint which both have great reviews in past posts.

    Agree with every part of this. Those dresses have pretty low backs, unfortunately. But on the plus side you totally don't need shapewear! You look beautiful in those dresses girls!
