For More Finicky Dress Cuts
Plunging Neckline
Wear the ‘U’ Shaped bra, or if it it too low cut for that, have cups sewn into it.
Backless Gown
Like the plunging neckline, this depends on how low the back is. The bra above is, as you can tell, specifically designed for dresses with low backs. If you’re larger- busted and feel the need for more security, consider having a long-line bra sewn into the dress and having the upper back of the bra removed. If you have a smaller- to- medium sized bust, the easiest route to take would be to have cups sewn in. Note: If you’re feeling a little insecure with this option, but know that you’d be able to pull it off, buy a gel- lined bra to be used inside the dress. These are mostly found in strapless bras, where the gel is used for added grip. You can either or additionally use double sided tape (though be sure to use tape whihc is specifically made for bodies, which can be found at most pharmacies and some supermarkets.
Strapless Gown
If the dress fits closely against you waist and bust, sagging shouldn't be a problem. But sewn in cups can provide even more support (an entire strapless bra will add another unnecessary layer and break up the silhouette).
A Slinky Gown:
Use shapewear to ensure smooth out and imperfections and avoid panty lines. Target what you consider to be your ‘problematic’ areas- if you have bigger thighs or a bigger bum, wear slimming shorts. If your stomach is the your main concern, wear a shapewear singlet or cover-all bodysuit.
