Wedding Dress Undergarment/shaper??

[tapioca_pudding]

Hey ladies!
Any suggestions for a good undergarment or good shapewear for the wedding day??

I've heard good things about the squeem waist cincher on Amazon, but I wasn't sure if there were any other suggestions that would help bring the waistline in during the wedding.

Thanks in advance!!

What is the shape/style of your dress?

 

[tapioca_pudding]

@MizAvalon it's a mermaid/fit n flare style dress with a split up the middle.

 

[MizAvalon]

The squeem may work well. Or perhaps a bustier type shaper?

 

[tapioca_pudding]

@MizAvalon thanks! I may order the squeem... I read really good reviews, I was just wondering what other women here have tried.

I wore only panties. The dresses have boning and built in support. I can't imagine wearing anything like a squeem underneath(I have one).

 

[Briabiggles]

I only wore panties as well. The seamstress sewed a bra into my dress.

Thanks ladies! I went to see the seamstress this past weekend and she is gonna sew a bra into my dress and add boning for support, so I should be okay. I may wear some spanx for smoothing but we will see.

Well..... I'm gonna need certain places to be sucked and tucked soooooooo I'm gonna need a spanx lol

If you need super control you need Rago!

Thanks!!!!!! When my dress comes back I will see what I may need as far as shaping then I'm definitely going the Rago route .

You're welcome ...surprisingly, I find Rago to be more comfortable than Spanx, and it works better too!

Which one do you wear? There's a bunch of different types...

This is why I made sure my dress came with a built in corset. I'm just gonna have panties under that dress

I too asked for a corset built into my dress but I've never worn a dress with a corset so I wanna have a backup plan.

I like the 6207...the high waist long leg shaper. It gives a really nice shape.

Did yall wear slips? I just wanna wear panties but these people keep trying to force this trippy slip on me. (my dress is a line and has a built in slip so I don't see the need but I want a second opinion before I reject it)

 

[Taleah2009]

Any one order Rago? Thanks to the recommendations here I am thinking about ordering the 6207.

 

[Taleah2009]

Found some reviews on weddingbee. definitely ordering rago

 

[tapioca_pudding]

^^I wound up ordering this one - http://www.classicshapewear.com/salome-short-strapless-girdle-0214-p-2597.html just to try it out. If it doesn't do what I want, Ill look into the Rago. I Just didnt' think the Rago would go up high enough to my bust line and I'd be left with that weird roll thing between my bra and the Rago.

Lemme know how it works for you when you get it @Taleah2009 !!!

You know what Imma just order it now anyway lol. I'll return whichever one I don't like.

What site did you order from? Did you follow the sizing guide?

If your dress already has a slip I dont see why you would need another one..

I ordered it from Amazon but it coming from her room so you can order from them directly. I actually purchased 2 because I was unsure of the size. I did one from my measurements and then one size down. My measurements put me at 3x but my clothing size put me at a l or xl so I was confused. I went my measurements so I ordered a 2x and 3x. That makes me sound sooo huge

 

[tapioca_pudding]

@Taleah2009 Thanks!! I wound up ordering a 3x from Herroom too (Iount care if I sound huge lol *** ya'll). I went off my measurements because clothes run so differently.. We'll see how it goes!!

@Taleah2009 I got my Rago in the mail today.. I didnt try it on with clothes, but I didnt feel wowed about it or anything. Maybe I need a smaller size to really see a difference. But either way, as I feared, it doesnt come up high in the back, only the front. So the front comes to my bra line but in the back theres that weird bulge between the shaper and my bra. Ill have to try it on with my long line bra to see if that makes a difference. Im gonna try it on with one of my super form fitting dresses to see if I get that WOW factor... Otherwise I think its going back.... Just wanted to update you!
