Is anyone not wearing shape wear under their dress? I'm a bigger girl and was planning on buying some and will need a particular kind to accommodate the back of my dress. I had cups sewn in the dress and I have a couple shape wear options coming in the mail. My family keeps insisting I don't wear...

Is anyone not wearing shape wear under their dress? I'm a bigger girl and was planning on buying some and will need a particular kind to accommodate the back of my dress. I had cups sewn in the dress and I have a couple shape wear options coming in the mail. My family keeps insisting I don't wear anything and say I look fine, but I feel that even if it helps a little bit, it's better than nothing. I just don't trust my family who is telling me this because they also called me ugly at my dress fitting and said they hated the dress I chose. I guess in the back of my mind, I feel like they want me to look bad somehow now. What did you do and what do you think? If none of the shape wear works for my dress, does it look OK also?

    Macys has some great options. You look beautiful without it though.

    My dress isn't form fitting, but I'm still planning on wearing one just because I'll feel "tight" and "In place" lol. I also have back problems, so I wear a corset (one prescribed by a doctor) and the tightness takes so much pressure off my back. SO I figured with a corset, it'll help my figure and relieve my back for such a long day Smiley smile

    as my mom says when people say awful things about you "they are just jealous" Smiley smile They only wish they could look as awesome as you! Keep your head up!
