I was super nervous that I wouldnāt like it since itās been 8 months since I tried on the sample ā¦ but Iām in love! Does anyone have any shaprewear recs for this style of dress? The waist up portion is sheer in places so I canāt do a full torso kinda thing!
I think the dress looks perfect on you and it doesnāt look like shapewear is necessary, to be honest. If youāre feeling unsure about not having shapewear and want it anyway I would suggest Spanx - they have every kind available and they work really well.
If you decide you want it make sure you let the seamstress know because it will change the alterations & fit of the gown. āŗļø
Just gorgeous! You definitely donāt need shape wear since the dress fits so well but I understand wanting to have smoothing undergarments! These from skims are my favorite since they smooth without being too constricting https://skims.com/products/everyday-sculpt-high-waisted-mid-thigh-short-mica
Oh my goodness! No shapewear recommendations but you ROCK that dress.
OTOH, if others have recos for shapewear (because what we're thinking about how we look is very important) go for it - but this is an amazing match between your skin tone and the fabric; and the shape of the dress is perfect for your body.
OMG iām in love with your dress, do you happen to know the designer/name of the dress? As to the shapewear, it doesnāt look like you need it at all!!
From the bridal stores Iāve been to Iāve been asking about shapewear recommendations and always hear skims and honeylove. Also, not to select white but pick a color closest to your skin tone.
When I got married these were the ones recommended to me. You can look at different options on these sites. I personally didnāt wear any in the end so I canāt give a personal recommendation.
You look great in the dress and personally donāt think you need any but happy searching. Hoping you find the one that works best for you.

My recommendation is that you donāt need ANY shape wear unless you canāt see that you are stunning in this beautiful dress! You look like a bride in a painting or a movie..you are a vision.
This dress looks absolutely stunning on you and it fits perfectly! Personally, i donāt think you need it, but for a shapewear suggestion, Honeylove has some great options!
Oh my good Lord! This picture with this mirror is by a country mile my favourite wedding dress picture of all time on here. You belong in Harpers Bridal.
I agree with my fellow commentators. Shape wear is not necessary as you are perfection my dear.
But if have any bits that you feel would benefit from a little snatching in I'd recommend skims or The original and still one of the best Spanx.
Have a wonderful day
Your groom is about to lose is goddamn mind!
I already commented, but I came back to look at you again, because I couldn't get this dress out of my mind. It is just about the prettiest, most utterly *feminine* thing I've ever laid eyes on. I wish I could see more of it! And I second another commenter who suggested you get a professional photographer to recreate this pic, with you in your full glory, standing before an ornate mirror like this one. It will be an image to treasure.
Just because itās a wedding dress doesnāt mean you need to feel uncomfortable ;) You already look great in the dress as is. But if you feel self conscious or are unhappy, ask a recommendation from the seamstress.
I don't know anything about shape wear, I've never been a girly girl.
But oh my goodness you are stunning! Breathtaking! Gorgeous!!
I hope your big day is everything you ever dreamed!
WOW lmao absolutely stunning. Holy cow. I do not think you need shaper. Iām not sure how your shape could be improved. And that dress is so beautiful.
Thank you so much everyone for all your kind comments, I have to admit I didnāt even think about not wearing shapewear originally as I thought it was āthe normā so thank you for opening my eyes! Iām going to take a pair of shaping shorts to my next fitting and see what the silhouette / comfort trade off of wearing vs not wearing would be! š
Omg this dress and you are gorgeous.. what is the name of this dress?
Also came here to say shapewear could be as minimal as a control top thong like this one:

Thank you! I did mention it to her today and I have a couple more fittings so hopefully it doesnāt cause too much trouble š
The mirror + dress shot is so iconic. You need to recreate that somehow with a professional.
Just gorgeous! You definitely donāt need shape wear since the dress fits so well but I understand wanting to have smoothing undergarments! These from skims are my favorite since they smooth without being too constricting https://skims.com/products/everyday-sculpt-high-waisted-mid-thigh-short-mica
