How to do, Style, Style and Fit, Triumph
Don’t leave your lingerie selection until the last minute. Instead, consider what you’ll wear underneath at the same time as choosing your dress. By choosing underwear as part of your wedding prep fun, you’ll save yourself some stress and make sure you have the perfect lingerie for your day.
You might think bridal lingerie has to be white and lacy. If that rings bells for you, go for it. But it’s interesting to note that weddings are increasingly unique celebrations embracing the individual tastes of the couple. If you’re planning to arrive on a Harley, exchange vows in a hot-air balloon, or simply dancing the night away, choose your lingerie to match.
If you’ve opted for a strapless wedding dress, a strapless bra will be on the cards. But you don’t want to spend your special day constantly adjusting yourself - or feeling uncomfortable - so a quality strapless in the right size and fit is key. Triumph’s range of strapless bras has been designed with true comfort and support in mind. Now, where’s that dancefloor?
Consult your dressmaker or designer to find out whether you’ll be best looking for a bra that is padded, push-up, minimising, strapless or wire-free. If your wedding dress is boned or has an internal bra, you can focus purely on shopping for underwear. Your dress might call for a seamless option, like a pair of the comfiest Sloggi Zero Feel Hipster Briefs. If you’d prefer a G-string, consider the gorgeous sloggi Zero Feel String.
Your dress is the star of the show, so it will dictate what lingerie is best for the actual wedding. But also enjoy thinking about any before and after events. Consider special lingerie and other bridal loungewear for a boudoir-style photoshoot. And, add some spice to your wedding night with a lingerie set specially selected for your first night as a married couple.
Shapewear is a great option to streamline your look and make sure there are no wardrobe malfunctions during your big day. Depending on your dress, you might be interested in the minimising magic offered by shapewear briefs. Or, a full shapewear bodysuit might be just the ticket. Either way, shapewear doesn’t have to mean boring – check out this True Shape Sensation design for perfectly secure style.
If white is your colour of choice, there’s plenty to choose from. If your outfit’s going to be less traditional, enjoy playing with colour options. Bridal lingerie can be a fun way to give a nod to tradition - something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue - like this Soft Touch Wedgewood Blue bra.
If you’re pushed for time or simply prefer the privacy of your own home, take advantage of an online fitting consultation. All you need is 30 minutes, a tape measure and an internet connection. Bridesmaids and a glass of bubbly are strictly optional!
Thank goodness it’s no longer taboo to have children before you tie the knot. If your decision to marry has been prompted by the recent arrival of a little one, you’ll be happy to hear that maternity bras have come a long way. You’re sure to find one that combines a touch of luxury with practicalities to meet all your new family’s needs.
Right now, it’s understandable that you’re totally focused on your wedding day. Take a moment to consider whether the lingerie you’re choosing for your wedding is something you’ll likely wear again, even for your next special occasion.
Have you decided on a colour scheme but are letting your bridesmaids select a unique style that suits them? Try our strapless bras which can suit any dress neckline- from strapless to halter neck or asymmetrical dresses, this is the style that adapts to any bridesmaid dress.
Are you looking for an oh-so-special gift for the friends supporting you on your bridal journey? Consider gifting lingerie for your besties as a great way to make them feel super special as they walk you down the aisle.
