For the Mother of the Bride or Mother of the Groom buying the correct underwear is essential. For the big day, everything has to be perfect. A smooth silhouette with the right fitting bra is so important. Underwired bras will enhance the bust area while seam freestyles will give a smooth appearance.

Bodyshapers

For close-fitting dresses, a body shaper may be the preferred choice. Today’s designs are much improved from the girdles of years ago. The stretch fabric skims the body and is comfortable to wear to all day to evening events. Fully lined structured dresses can give you all the support you need so a good fitting bra can be worn instead. Bras with comfy wide straps will lay flat without creating any bumps and lumps beneath clothing.

Soft Lace Bras

Feminine soft cup bras that have 3 or 4 hook and eye closures and adjustable lengths ensure a flawless finish to your look. The elastane added to the fabric in the form of lycra provides stretch and freedom of movement. Good quality bras will hold their shape for a long-lasting fit.

The most important thing to consider when buying a bra is always going to be the fit. So before searching for styles and colour to match your outfit, it is best to have a bra fitting or measure your self at home. All brands can vary so checking size charts will save time.

Luxury lingerie brands, as well as high street stores, offer complete sets with bras and matching briefs. Designs feature floral ace, stretch trims and three-part comfort cups for extra support.
